Product details
Overview
JAN1N4104C-1 from Microsemi is a 500 mW, 10.0 V ±2% metallurgically bonded glass Zener diode in DO-35 (DO-204AH) axial package, qualified to JAN level per MIL-PRF-19500/435 for high-reliability voltage regulation in aerospace and defense power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the JAN1N4104C-1 datasheet, JAN1N4104C-1 pinout, JAN1N4104C-1 application, or JAN1N4104C-1 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±2%), dynamic impedance (200 Ω at 250 mA), noise density (1 µV/√Hz), temperature coefficient (+0.080 %/°C), and JANS-qualified reliability grading.
Technical Context
This device operates as a precision shunt voltage regulator with a nominal Zener voltage of 10.0 V at 250 mA test current, exhibiting low dynamic impedance (200 Ω) and minimal capacitance (typical 42 pF). Its metallurgical bond construction ensures stable regulation across wide current (0.5–7.6 mA) and temperature (−65 to +175 °C) ranges.
The JAN1N4104C-1 features a positive temperature coefficient (+0.080 %/°C), enabling predictable voltage drift in thermal environments, and delivers ultra-low noise density (1 µV/√Hz) - critical for reference circuits in analog-to-digital converters and precision instrumentation.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of JAN1N4104C-1?
JAN1N4104C-1 has a nominal Zener voltage of 10.0 V with a tolerance of ±2%, denoted by the "C" suffix in the part number per Microsemi's nomenclature. This tolerance is verified at 250 mA test current and 25 °C ambient, and applies across the full qualified temperature range of −65 to +175 °C for JAN-level devices.
Is JAN1N4104C-1 RoHS compliant?
No, JAN1N4104C-1 is not RoHS compliant. The "e3" RoHS designation is only available on commercial-grade versions (e.g., 1N4104C-1e3); JAN-level parts retain traditional tin-lead plating per MIL-STD-750 to ensure solderability and reliability in high-reliability solder processes.
What is the maximum Zener current IZM for JAN1N4104C-1?
The maximum Zener current IZM for JAN1N4104C-1 is 7.6 mA, derived from its 500 mW power rating and 10.0 V Zener voltage (IZM = PM(AV)/VZ). This value assumes operation at 25 °C lead temperature and linearly derates above 50 °C per the published power derating curve.
Does JAN1N4104C-1 have radiation hardness certification?
Yes, JAN1N4104C-1 is inherently radiation hard as documented in Microsemi MicroNote 050. Its metallurgically bonded glass construction and hermetic DO-35 package provide proven total ionizing dose (TID) tolerance exceeding 100 krad(Si), making it suitable for low-earth orbit and terrestrial nuclear environments.
What is the dynamic impedance of JAN1N4104C-1 and why does it matter?
JAN1N4104C-1 has a maximum dynamic impedance ZZT of 200 Ω at 250 mA test current. This low impedance ensures minimal output voltage deviation (<200 mV) under 1 mA load steps - critical for maintaining reference stability in closed-loop power supply feedback networks and precision analog circuits.
