Product details
Overview
JAN1N4119-1 from Microsemi is a 500 mW, 28.0 V ±5% metallurgically bonded glass Zener diode in DO-35 (DO-204AH) axial-leaded 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 JAN1N4119-1 datasheet, JAN1N4119-1 pinout, JAN1N4119-1 application, or JAN1N4119-1 equivalent, this part delivers stable 28 V regulation at 250 mA test current, low 200 Ω dynamic impedance, and <0.01 µA reverse leakage at 21.3 V - critical for precision reference and overvoltage protection circuits requiring military-grade reliability.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown with cathode-banded polarity, relying on metallurgical bonding for thermal stability and radiation hardness. Its 250 mA Zener test current (IZT) and 200 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT) are specified at 25 °C with thermal resistance junction-to-lead of 250 °C/W at 10 mm lead length.
The device exhibits +0.095 %/°C temperature coefficient (αVZ), minimal capacitance (typ. <2 pF at 28 V), and noise density of 1 µV/√Hz - enabling low-noise analog references and stable biasing in RF front-ends and sensor signal chains where voltage drift and EMI sensitivity must be minimized.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 28.0 V ±5% at 250 mA - sets precise regulation point for 24–30 V rail clamping or reference generation. |
| Power Dissipation | 500 mW at 25 °C, derated linearly to zero at 175 °C - supports continuous operation in high-temp avionics enclosures. |
| Dynamic Impedance | 200 Ω at IZT = 250 mA - ensures tight voltage regulation under load transients up to ±10% current change. |
| Reverse Leakage | ≤0.01 µA at VR = 21.3 V - prevents parasitic current draw in battery-backed or ultra-low-power standby circuits. |
| Temp Coefficient | +0.095 %/°C - enables predictable, monotonic voltage shift across -65 to +175 °C operating range. |
| Noise Density | 1 µV/√Hz - suitable for low-noise analog references in precision instrumentation and ADC bias networks. |
| Junction Temp Range | -65 to +175 °C - certified for extended-temperature operation in space-grade and missile guidance systems. |
Pinout & Package
DO-35 (DO-204AH) hermetically sealed axial-leaded glass package with tin-lead plating; cathode indicated by single black band; weight ≈0.2 g; body diameter 1.42–2.29 mm, overall length 25.4–38.1 mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (unbanded end) | Forward conduction terminal / Zener cathode reference ground | Connected to system ground or lower-potential node; defines reference potential for regulated output. |
| Cathode (banded end) | Zener regulation terminal / reverse-bias input | Applied to positive supply rail; reverse voltage across this terminal triggers breakdown at 28.0 V. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| MIL-PRF-19500/435 JAN qualification | Guarantees screening, testing, and traceability for mission-critical aerospace deployments. |
| Metallurgical bond construction | Enables radiation hardness (per MicroNote 050) and long-term parameter stability under thermal cycling. |
| Low noise density (1 µV/√Hz) | Reduces voltage reference jitter in PLLs, DACs, and high-resolution sensor interfaces. |
| Hermetic glass sealing | Prevents moisture ingress and parameter drift in humid or corrosive environments (e.g., naval electronics). |
| Non-ESD-sensitive design | Withstands handling without special precautions per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020 - simplifies assembly logistics. |
Applications
| Avionics Power Regulation | Military Radio Bias Networks |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4119US (Microchip) | Same 28 V nominal Zener voltage, but surface-mount DO-213AA package; 150 Ω ZZT; RoHS-compliant only. | Lacks MIL-qualified screening; not rated for JANS/JAN levels; unsuitable for flight-critical hardware. | Select when board space is constrained and military qualification is not required. |
| JANTXV1N4119 (Microsemi) | Identical electrical specs and DO-35 package, but qualified to JANTXV level with enhanced screening and lot traceability. | Approved for higher-reliability programs (e.g., NASA Class S, DoD Category A); requires additional test documentation. | Choose when system-level reliability mandates JANTXV screening beyond JAN baseline. |
Compared with JAN1N4119-1, 1N4119US trades military qualification for SMT compatibility and RoHS compliance, while JANTXV1N4119 extends the same proven DO-35 platform with tighter process controls and extended environmental testing - making it ideal for programs where failure risk must be quantified below 10⁻⁶ FIT.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for JAN1N4119-1?
JAN1N4119-1 has a nominal Zener voltage of 28.0 V with a standard tolerance of ±5%, as defined by JEDEC registration and confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of T4-LDS-0245-2. This tolerance applies at 250 mA test current and 25 °C ambient temperature, and is consistent across all JAN-level units in the 1N4099–1N4135 family.
Is JAN1N4119-1 RoHS compliant?
No, JAN1N4119-1 is not RoHS compliant. Per the nomenclature guide on page 2 of T4-LDS-0245-2, the "e3" suffix denotes RoHS compliance and is available only on commercial-grade versions. The JAN prefix indicates military qualification, which uses traditional tin-lead plating per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026 - a requirement for solderability and reliability in high-reliability assemblies.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for JAN1N4119-1?
The maximum reverse leakage current (IR) for JAN1N4119-1 is 0.01 µA at VR = 21.3 V, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3. This ultra-low leakage ensures negligible current draw in standby modes and preserves accuracy in high-impedance reference divider networks used with precision op-amps or ADCs.
Can JAN1N4119-1 be used in surface-mount designs?
No, JAN1N4119-1 is exclusively packaged in the axial-leaded DO-35 (DO-204AH) glass case and is not compatible with surface-mount assembly. For SMT alternatives, Microsemi offers the 1N4119UR-1 in DO-213AA and 1PMT4119 in DO-216 packages - but these lack JAN-level qualification and use different screening and marking conventions.
What is the thermal resistance junction-to-lead for JAN1N4119-1?
The thermal resistance junction-to-lead (RθJL) for JAN1N4119-1 is 250 °C/W when measured at 10 mm (3/8 inch) lead length from the package body, as stated in the Maximum Ratings table on page 1. This value enables accurate thermal modeling for PCB copper pad sizing and heatsinking in high-power-density avionics modules.
