Product details
Overview
1N4119-1 from Microsemi is a 500 mW, 28.0 V metallurgically bonded glass Zener diode in DO-35 (DO-204AH) package, qualified to JANS level per MIL-PRF-19500/435, with ±5% voltage tolerance, 200 Ω dynamic impedance at 250 mA, and 0.01 µA max reverse leakage at 21.3 V. It delivers stable voltage regulation in high-reliability power supply reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4119-1 datasheet, 1N4119-1 pinout, 1N4119-1 application, or 1N4119-1 equivalent, this page provides verified Zener voltage, temperature coefficient (+0.095 %/°C), noise density (1 µV/√Hz), junction temperature range (–65 to +175 °C), and military qualification level - all critical for aerospace, defense, and industrial analog design.
Technical Context
The 1N4119-1 operates as a precision shunt voltage regulator in reverse-biased breakdown mode, with Zener test current fixed at 250 mA and specified dynamic impedance measured at 10% AC modulation superimposed on IZT. Its metallurgical bond construction ensures low thermal resistance (RθJL = 250 °C/W) and radiation hardness per MicroNote 050.
It exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of +0.095 %/°C, indicating increasing Zener voltage with rising temperature - a key behavior for thermal drift compensation in reference designs. Noise density is rated at 1 µV/√Hz, confirming suitability for low-noise analog references where signal integrity is critical.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for the 1N4119-1?
The 1N4119-1 has a nominal Zener voltage of 28.0 V with a standard tolerance of ±5%, as defined in the JEDEC-registered specification and confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of T4-LDS-0245-2 Rev. 1. This tolerance applies under thermal equilibrium at 25 °C with 250 mA test current.
Is the 1N4119-1 qualified to JANS level?
Yes, the 1N4119-1 is qualified to JANS level per MIL-PRF-19500/435, as explicitly stated in the DESCRIPTION section on page 1 of the datasheet. This qualification confirms its suitability for spaceflight and other ultra-high-reliability applications requiring full radiation hardness and extended temperature validation.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for the 1N4119-1?
The 1N4119-1 has a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 0.01 µA at 21.3 V, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3. This ultra-low leakage supports high-impedance bias networks and precision reference designs where error current must be minimized.
Does the 1N4119-1 have a RoHS-compliant version?
Yes - the RoHS-compliant version is designated 1N4119-1e3, which uses annealed matte-tin plating and is available in commercial grade only. Per the datasheet, JANTX/JANTXV/JANS versions remain non-RoHS compliant due to tin-lead plating requirements for military reliability.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to lead for the 1N4119-1?
The 1N4119-1 has a thermal resistance from junction to lead (RθJL) of 250 °C/W when mounted with 3/8 inch (10 mm) lead length from body, as listed in the Maximum Ratings table on page 1. This value supports thermal modeling for power dissipation in high-reliability mechanical layouts.
