Product details
Overview
JAN1N4118-1/TR from Microsemi is a 500 mW, 27.0 V ±5% 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 JAN1N4118-1/TR datasheet, JAN1N4118-1/TR pinout, JAN1N4118-1/TR application, or JAN1N4118-1/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance, noise density at 27 V, thermal resistance junction-to-lead, maximum reverse current at VR = 20.5 V, and JANS-level qualification path availability.
Technical Context
This device operates as a precision shunt voltage regulator with a nominal Zener voltage of 27.0 V at 250 mA test current, exhibiting a temperature coefficient of +0.090 %/°C and dynamic impedance of 150 Ω at IZT. Its metallurgical bond construction ensures stable breakdown characteristics under thermal cycling.
Designed for high-reliability environments, it supports operation from –65 °C to +175 °C, delivers ≤0.01 µA reverse leakage at VR = 20.5 V, and maintains low noise density (≤1 µV/√Hz below 6.8 V, rising to ~40 µV/√Hz at higher voltages) - critical for analog reference and sensor biasing circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage VZ | 27.0 V ±5% at IZT = 250 mA - defines stable regulation point for feedback loops in DC-DC converters. |
| Power Dissipation | 500 mW at TL = 25 °C, derated linearly to zero at 175 °C - sets maximum continuous power handling on standard PCB layouts. |
| Dynamic Impedance ZZT | 150 Ω at IZT = 250 mA - determines output voltage stability under load transients. |
| Reverse Leakage IR | ≤0.01 µA at VR = 20.5 V - ensures minimal error current in high-impedance reference networks. |
| Temp. Coefficient αVZ | +0.090 %/°C - quantifies drift magnitude over operating temperature range in precision references. |
| Noise Density ND | ≤1 µV/√Hz (typical at 27 V) - enables use in low-noise analog signal conditioning without added filtering. |
| Junction Temp. Range | –65 °C to +175 °C - supports deployment in extended-temperature military avionics and downhole electronics. |
Pinout & Package
DO-35 (DO-204AH) hermetically sealed axial-leaded glass package with cathode indicated by band; leads are tin-lead or RoHS-compliant matte-tin plated, solderable per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Reference ground node | Connected to system ground or lower-potential rail; forms return path for Zener current. |
| Cathode (banded end) | Regulated output node | Provides stable 27.0 V reference when reverse-biased; must be held positive relative to anode. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| MIL-PRF-19500/435 JAN qualification | Validated reliability for mission-critical systems requiring screening to military standards. |
| Metallurgical bond construction | Eliminates interfacial delamination risk under thermal shock and vibration stress. |
| Low noise density (≤1 µV/√Hz) | Minimizes voltage reference jitter in precision ADC biasing and RF oscillator tuning circuits. |
| Hermetic glass sealing | Prevents moisture ingress and parameter shift over decades in harsh environmental storage. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4118US-1 | Same electrical specs but in surface-mount DO-213AA package; no axial leads. | Requires SMT assembly; unsuitable for through-hole prototyping or high-vibration mechanical retention. | Select when board space is constrained and reflow compatibility is required. |
| JANTXV1N4118-1 | Identical Zener parameters but qualified to JANTXV level with enhanced screening (burn-in, thermal shock, life test). | Supports higher assurance requirements in flight-critical subsystems where JAN is insufficient. | Select when system certification demands extended reliability validation beyond JAN level. |
Compared with JAN1N4118-1/TR, the 1N4118US-1 offers identical regulation performance in a compact SMT form factor, while JANTXV1N4118-1 adds rigorous screening for safety-critical deployments - both require explicit validation against the target application's mechanical, thermal, and qualification profile.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of JAN1N4118-1/TR?
JAN1N4118-1/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 27.0 V with a ±5% tolerance, consistent with the standard JEDEC specification for the 1N4099–1N4135 series. This tolerance applies at IZT = 250 mA and TA = 25 °C, and is verified per MIL-PRF-19500/435 screening requirements for JAN-level devices.
Is JAN1N4118-1/TR RoHS compliant?
No, JAN1N4118-1/TR is not RoHS compliant. The "e3" suffix denotes RoHS compliance, which is only available on commercial-grade versions (e.g., 1N4118-1e3). JAN-level parts like JAN1N4118-1/TR use traditional tin-lead plating per MIL-STD-750 and are exempt from RoHS under defense procurement waivers.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for JAN1N4118-1/TR?
JAN1N4118-1/TR exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 0.01 µA at VR = 20.5 V, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of T4-LDS-0245-2 Rev. 1. This ultra-low leakage supports high-impedance reference designs in precision instrumentation.
Can JAN1N4118-1/TR be used in surface-mount applications?
No, JAN1N4118-1/TR uses the axial-leaded DO-35 (DO-204AH) package and is intended for through-hole mounting. For surface-mount equivalents, consider the 1N4118US-1 in DO-213AA or 1PMT4118 in DO-216 - neither carries JAN qualification but share identical electrical specs.
What is the thermal resistance junction-to-lead for JAN1N4118-1/TR?
JAN1N4118-1/TR has a thermal resistance junction-to-lead (RθJL) of 250 °C/W when measured with 3/8 inch (10 mm) lead length from body, per the Maximum Ratings table. This value enables accurate thermal modeling for derating calculations in conduction-cooled assemblies.
