Product details
Overview
JAN1N4125D-1 from Microsemi is a 500 mW, 47 V, 1% tolerance metallurgically bonded glass Zener diode in DO-35 (DO-204AH) package, qualified to JANS level per MIL-PRF-19500/435 for high-reliability voltage regulation in aerospace and defense power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the JAN1N4125D-1 datasheet, JAN1N4125D-1 pinout, JAN1N4125D-1 application, or JAN1N4125D-1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 47 V nominal Zener voltage at 250 mA test current, 250 Ω maximum dynamic impedance, 0.01 µA maximum reverse leakage at 35.8 V, ±0.095 %/°C temperature coefficient, and hermetically sealed axial-leaded construction.
Technical Context
This device operates as a precision shunt voltage regulator with a sharp breakdown knee at IZK = 250 mA, leveraging internal metallurgical bonding to ensure stable Zener voltage under thermal cycling and radiation exposure. Its low noise density (≤1 µV/√Hz below 6.8 V) and minimal capacitance support low-noise analog reference design.
The JAN1N4125D-1 is rated for junction temperatures from –65 °C to +175 °C, with thermal resistance RθJL = 250 °C/W at 10 mm lead length, enabling operation in high-temperature military environments without forced cooling.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4125US-1 | Same electrical specs but in DO-213AA surface-mount package; no axial leads | Used where PCB real estate or automated assembly requires SMT instead of through-hole | Select when board layout mandates surface mount and thermal path allows RθJA ≤ 400 °C/W |
| JANTXV1N4125D | Identical Zener parameters and 1% tolerance, but qualified only to JANTXV (not JANS) per MIL-PRF-19500/435 | Approved for high-reliability avionics but excluded from radiation-intensive or space-grade programs requiring JANS | Choose when full JANS screening is not mandated and cost reduction is prioritized |
Compared with JAN1N4125D-1, 1N4125US-1 offers identical regulation performance in SMT form but lacks JANS qualification, while JANTXV1N4125D meets most military specs at lower screening cost but excludes radiation hardness validation required for space missions.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of JAN1N4125D-1?
The "D" suffix in JAN1N4125D-1 denotes a 1% Zener voltage tolerance, meaning its nominal 47 V rating is guaranteed between 46.53 V and 47.47 V at 250 mA test current and 25 °C ambient. This tighter tolerance supports precision reference designs where standard 5% variants would introduce unacceptable error margins.
Is JAN1N4125D-1 qualified for space applications?
Yes, JAN1N4125D-1 is qualified to JANS level per MIL-PRF-19500/435, including radiation hardness characterization documented in Microsemi MicroNote 050. It is approved for use in spaceflight hardware where total ionizing dose (TID) resilience up to 100 krad(Si) is required, provided full lot acceptance testing is performed.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for JAN1N4125D-1?
JAN1N4125D-1 has a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 0.01 µA at VR = 35.8 V and 25 °C. This ultra-low leakage ensures minimal loading on high-impedance bias networks and preserves accuracy in low-power analog circuits where even nanoamp-level currents affect performance.
Can JAN1N4125D-1 be used in surface-mount designs?
No - JAN1N4125D-1 uses the axial-leaded DO-35 (DO-204AH) package and is not surface-mount compatible. For SMT implementation, Microsemi offers the functionally equivalent 1N4125US-1 in DO-213AA package, which shares identical electrical specifications but requires requalification for JANS-level reliability.
What is the temperature coefficient of JAN1N4125D-1?
JAN1N4125D-1 has a temperature coefficient (αVZ) of ±0.095 %/°C, indicating its Zener voltage changes by approximately ±0.045 V per 10 °C deviation from 25 °C. This value is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of T4-LDS-0245-2 and supports predictable drift modeling in thermal design.
