Product details
Overview
JAN1N4129-1 from Microsemi is a 500 mW, 62 V metallurgically bonded glass Zener diode in DO-35 (DO-204AH) axial-leaded package, qualified to JAN level per MIL-PRF-19500/435, with ±5% voltage tolerance, 500 Ω max dynamic impedance at 250 mA test current, and 40 µV/√Hz max noise density - used for precision voltage regulation in military power supplies and analog reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the JAN1N4129-1 datasheet, JAN1N4129-1 pinout, JAN1N4129-1 application, or JAN1N4129-1 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy under thermal stress, low-noise performance at 62 V, MIL-qualified reliability, and DO-35 lead-form compatibility with through-hole high-reliability PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The JAN1N4129-1 operates as a reverse-biased voltage reference with a nominal Zener voltage of 62.0 V at 250 mA test current (IZT), exhibiting a positive temperature coefficient of +0.100 %/°C. Its metallurgical bond construction ensures stable breakdown characteristics across -65 °C to +175 °C junction temperature range.
It delivers 500 mW average power dissipation at 25 °C, derating linearly to zero at 175 °C, and maintains ≤0.01 µA reverse leakage current at VR = 47.1 V. Dynamic impedance is specified at 500 Ω maximum under 10% rms AC modulation superimposed on IZT.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4129US | Same 62 V Zener voltage and DO-35 package, but JANTXV-qualified (not JAN); RoHS-compliant plating only | Approved for higher-reliability commercial aerospace programs where JAN-level screening is not mandated | Select when full JAN screening is unnecessary and RoHS compliance is required |
| CMZ5937B | 62 V Zener in DO-41 package; 1.0 W rating; ±5% tolerance; no MIL qualification; higher thermal resistance (RθJA = 500 °C/W) | Used in industrial power supplies where cost and wattage outweigh military reliability needs | Select for cost-sensitive, non-military designs requiring higher power headroom |
Compared with JAN1N4129-1, 1N4129US offers identical electrical specs with relaxed screening, while CMZ5937B trades MIL-qualification and low-noise performance for higher power and lower cost - making JAN1N4129-1 optimal for weight-, size-, and radiation-constrained defense platforms.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for JAN1N4129-1?
JAN1N4129-1 has a nominal Zener voltage of 62.0 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 under thermal equilibrium at 25 °C with 250 mA test current, and is maintained across the full JAN qualification screening process.
Is JAN1N4129-1 RoHS compliant?
No, JAN1N4129-1 is not RoHS compliant. Per the nomenclature guide on page 2 of T4-LDS-0245-2, RoHS compliance (e3 suffix) is available only on commercial-grade versions of this series. The JAN prefix indicates military qualification, and the part uses traditional tin-lead plating per MIL-STD-750 method 2026.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for JAN1N4129-1?
JAN1N4129-1 has a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 0.01 µA at VR = 47.1 V, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of T4-LDS-0245-2. This ultra-low leakage supports high-impedance biasing and low-power hold-up functions in sensitive analog circuits.
Can JAN1N4129-1 be used in surface-mount designs?
No, JAN1N4129-1 is packaged exclusively in the axial-leaded DO-35 (DO-204AH) glass case. Surface-mount variants exist in the same family (e.g., 1N4129UR-1 in DO-213AA), but JAN1N4129-1 itself requires through-hole mounting and lead forming per MIL-PRF-19500/435 mechanical requirements.
What is the thermal resistance junction-to-lead for JAN1N4129-1?
The thermal resistance junction-to-lead (RθJL) for JAN1N4129-1 is 250 °C/W when measured with 3/8 inch (10 mm) lead length from the body, as stated in the Maximum Ratings table on page 1 of T4-LDS-0245-2. This value assumes standard lead termination and is critical for calculating junction temperature rise under continuous DC Zener current.
