Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4116US | Same electrical specs but in DO-213AA surface-mount package; no axial leads | Requires PCB rework for SMT assembly; unsuitable for through-hole prototyping or wire-wrap | Select when automated pick-and-place and board space constraints outweigh manual assembly flexibility |
| 1N4116-1 | Identical DO-35 package and electrical parameters; differs only in part suffix indicating non-RoHS commercial grade | No functional difference; same JANTXV qualification and performance; lacks "TR" tape-and-reel packaging | Choose for hand-soldered prototypes or small-batch builds where reel packaging is unnecessary |
Compared with 1N4116US and 1N4116-1, the 1N4116/TR offers tape-and-reel delivery for automated production while retaining full JANTXV reliability and DO-35 mechanical compatibility - making it optimal for volume manufacturing of certified military hardware.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for the 1N4116/TR?
The 1N4116/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 24.0 V with ±1% tolerance, corresponding to the "D" suffix in Microsemi's nomenclature system. This tight tolerance is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of T4-LDS-0245-2 Rev. 1, where 1N4116-1 (identical base part) is specified at 24.0 V ±1% at 250 mA test current.
Is the 1N4116/TR qualified to JANTXV level?
Yes, the 1N4116/TR is qualified to JANTXV level per MIL-PRF-19500/435, as stated in the "Qualified Levels" section on page 1 of the datasheet. The "-1" suffix in the part number denotes JANTXV qualification, and the TR suffix adds tape-and-reel packaging without affecting reliability grade.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for the 1N4116/TR?
The 1N4116/TR has a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 0.01 µA at 18.3 V, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3. This value applies at 25 °C ambient and reflects the device's low-leakage performance critical for high-impedance reference applications.
Does the 1N4116/TR have radiation hardness?
Yes, the 1N4116/TR exhibits inherent radiation hardness due to its metallurgically bonded construction and glass package, as documented in Microsemi MicroNote 050. This makes it suitable for low-dose space applications without requiring additional shielding or testing.
What is the thermal resistance junction-to-lead for the 1N4116/TR?
The 1N4116/TR has a thermal resistance junction-to-lead (RθJL) of 250 °C/W when measured at 3/8 inch (10 mm) lead length from the body, per the Maximum Ratings table on page 1. This value assumes standard mounting conditions and informs thermal design for sustained 500 mW operation.
