Product details
Overview
JAN1N4124C-1 from Microsemi is a 500 mW, 43 V, ±2% tolerance metallurgically bonded glass Zener diode in DO-35 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 JAN1N4124C-1 datasheet, JAN1N4124C-1 pinout, JAN1N4124C-1 application, or JAN1N4124C-1 equivalent, this page delivers verified Zener voltage, temperature coefficient, dynamic impedance, noise density, and military qualification details critical for precision analog reference and overvoltage protection design.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown with a nominal 43 V regulation at 250 mA test current (IZT), exhibiting a +0.095 %/°C temperature coefficient and 250 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT) at IZT. Its metallurgical bond ensures stable long-term voltage drift under thermal cycling.
Designed for hermetic axial-leaded mounting, it delivers low noise density (1 µV/√Hz typical at lower voltages) and minimal capacitance (<1.5 pF), making it suitable for low-noise reference circuits where stability across -65 °C to +175 °C junction temperature is required.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage VZ | 43.0 V ±2% at 250 mA - precise regulation point for mid-range voltage references |
| Power Dissipation | 500 mW at 25 °C - supports stable operation up to 175 °C with linear derating |
| Dynamic Impedance ZZT | 250 Ω at 250 mA - low AC impedance ensures minimal output voltage variation under load transients |
| Temperature Coefficient αVZ | +0.095 %/°C - predictable positive drift enables accurate thermal compensation in reference designs |
| Noise Density ND | 1 µV/√Hz (typical at lower voltages) - ultra-low broadband noise for precision analog circuitry |
| Reverse Leakage IR | ≤0.01 µA at 32.7 V - negligible current loss in high-impedance bias networks |
| Junction Temp Range | -65 °C to +175 °C - validated for extreme-environment operation in avionics and space-grade systems |
Pinout & Package

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of JAN1N4124C-1?
The "C" suffix in JAN1N4124C-1 denotes a ±2% Zener voltage tolerance at 250 mA test current. This tighter tolerance compared to standard 5% (blank suffix) versions reduces calibration effort in precision reference designs and improves initial accuracy without trimming.
Is JAN1N4124C-1 qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/435?
Yes, JAN1N4124C-1 is fully qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/435 at the JAN reliability level, including screening for temperature cycling, mechanical shock, vibration, and steady-state life testing per the specification. Full test data and lot traceability are available upon request.
What is the maximum Zener current IZM for JAN1N4124C-1?
The maximum Zener current IZM for JAN1N4124C-1 is 32.7 mA at 25 °C ambient, calculated from its 500 mW power rating and 43 V nominal Zener voltage. Derating applies above 50 °C lead temperature, reaching zero dissipation at 175 °C.
Does JAN1N4124C-1 have low noise performance?
Yes, JAN1N4124C-1 exhibits ultra-low noise density - typically 1 µV/√Hz at lower Zener voltages and falling further with decreasing voltage. While exact value at 43 V is not tabulated, its metallurgical bond and glass package ensure minimal excess noise versus diffused-junction alternatives.
What package type does JAN1N4124C-1 use?
JAN1N4124C-1 uses the DO-35 (DO-204AH) axial-leaded hermetically sealed glass package with tin-lead plated leads. Cathode polarity is marked by a band; the banded end must be held at higher potential than the anode for proper Zener regulation.
