Product details
Overview
JAN1N4124-1/TR from Microsemi is a 500 mW, 43.0 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 JAN1N4124-1/TR datasheet, JAN1N4124-1/TR pinout, JAN1N4124-1/TR application, or JAN1N4124-1/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance, noise density at 43 V, thermal resistance junction-to-lead, maximum reverse current at VR = 32.7 V, and MIL-qualified reliability level.
Technical Context
This device operates as a precision shunt voltage regulator with a nominal Zener voltage of 43.0 V at 250 mA test current, exhibiting a temperature coefficient of +0.095 %/°C and dynamic impedance of 250 Ω at IZT. Its metallurgical bond construction ensures stable breakdown characteristics under thermal cycling.
Designed for operation in the reverse-biased breakdown region, it delivers regulated output with ≤0.01 µA reverse leakage at VR = 32.7 V and maintains low noise density - typical ND is <1 µV/√Hz below 6.8 V, though not specified at 43 V per datasheet - while supporting full 500 mW dissipation at TC = 25 °C with linear derating to zero at 175 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage VZ | 43.0 V at IZT = 250 mA - defines precise regulation point for reference design |
| Zener Tolerance | ±5% - standard JEDEC tolerance; no C/D suffix indicates 5% band |
| Power Dissipation | 500 mW at TC = 25 °C - sets maximum continuous thermal load on PCB layout |
| Dynamic Impedance ZZT | 250 Ω - determines regulation stiffness and output voltage variation under load changes |
| Reverse Leakage IR | ≤0.01 µA at VR = 32.7 V - ensures minimal quiescent current in standby circuits |
| Thermal Resistance RθJL | 250 °C/W @ 3/8″ lead length - guides heatsinking requirements for sustained operation |
| Temp Coefficient αVZ | +0.095 %/°C - quantifies drift magnitude over operating temperature range |
Pinout & Package

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4124US-1 | Same electrical specs but in DO-213AA surface-mount package; no axial leads | Requires SMT reflow process; unsuitable for through-hole prototyping or high-vibration mechanical retention | Select when board space is constrained and automated assembly is used |
| JANTXV1N4124-1 | Identical DO-35 package and electrical parameters, but qualified to JANTXV level per MIL-PRF-19500/435 | Higher screening and testing rigor enables use in mission-critical avionics where JAN is insufficient | Select when system-level qualification requires enhanced burn-in and lot traceability |
Compared with JAN1N4124-1/TR, 1N4124US-1 offers footprint reduction at the cost of mechanical robustness, while JANTXV1N4124-1 provides tighter process controls without altering regulation performance - both retain identical VZ, ZZT, and thermal behavior.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage and tolerance of JAN1N4124-1/TR?
JAN1N4124-1/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 43.0 V at IZT = 250 mA with a standard ±5% tolerance, consistent with JEDEC registration and indicated by absence of C (2%) or D (1%) suffix in the part number. This tolerance defines the allowable deviation in regulation setpoint under nominal conditions.
Is JAN1N4124-1/TR RoHS compliant?
No, JAN1N4124-1/TR is not RoHS compliant. Per the datasheet, RoHS-compliant versions (e.g., with e3 suffix) are available only for commercial-grade variants; JAN-level parts retain tin-lead plating to meet MIL-STD-750 solderability requirements and are exempt from RoHS restrictions under defense procurement rules.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for JAN1N4124-1/TR?
JAN1N4124-1/TR specifies a maximum reverse leakage current IR of 0.01 µA at VR = 32.7 V (75% of VZ). This ultra-low leakage supports low-power bias networks and high-impedance reference nodes where standby current must be minimized.
How is the cathode identified on JAN1N4124-1/TR?
The cathode of JAN1N4124-1/TR is marked by a distinct black band on the glass body. During Zener regulation, the banded end must be held at a higher potential than the anode - i.e., reverse biased - to maintain stable 43 V breakdown conduction.
What does the "TR" suffix indicate in JAN1N4124-1/TR?
The "TR" suffix in JAN1N4124-1/TR denotes tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-296 standard, enabling automated pick-and-place assembly. It does not affect electrical or reliability specifications; the underlying JAN1N4124-1 device remains unchanged in performance and qualification level.
