Product details
Overview
JAN1N4131D-1 from Microsemi is a 500 mW, 75 V Zener diode in DO-35 glass package, qualified to JANS level per MIL-PRF-19500/435, with 1% voltage tolerance, 700 Ω dynamic impedance at 250 mA, and 5.1 µA reverse leakage at 60 V. It serves as a precision voltage reference in radiation-hardened military power regulation circuits.
For engineers reviewing the JAN1N4131D-1 datasheet, JAN1N4131D-1 pinout, JAN1N4131D-1 application, or JAN1N4131D-1 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (1%), junction temperature range (–65°C to +175°C), noise density (1 µV/√Hz), metallurgical bond construction, and JANS-level qualification for high-reliability aerospace systems.
Technical Context
This device operates in reverse breakdown with cathode-banded polarity, requiring positive bias on the banded end relative to the anode. Its metallurgically bonded junction ensures stable regulation across wide current (250 mA test point) and temperature (–65°C to +175°C) ranges.
Designed for high-reliability mil-spec applications, it delivers low noise (1 µV/√Hz), minimal capacitance (typ. <2 pF at 75 V), and inherent radiation hardness per Microsemi MicroNote 050 - critical for satellite power supervisors and avionics voltage references.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage VZ | 75 V ±1% at 250 mA - enables precise 75 V rail regulation with tight tolerance for mission-critical analog monitoring. |
| Power Dissipation | 500 mW at 25°C, derated linearly to zero at 175°C - supports sustained operation in sealed enclosures without forced cooling. |
| Dynamic Impedance ZZT | 700 Ω max at 250 mA - ensures stable output under load transients in feedback loops of regulated DC-DC converters. |
| Reverse Leakage IR | 5.1 µA max at 60 V - minimizes standby current loss in low-power sensor bias networks. |
| Noise Density | 1 µV/√Hz - provides ultra-low-noise reference for precision ADC reference buffers and PLL VCO tuning circuits. |
| Temp Coefficient αVZ | +0.100 %/°C - predictable positive drift allows compensation in temperature-stable reference designs. |
| Junction Temp Range | –65°C to +175°C - validated for operation in missile guidance electronics and space-grade power sequencers. |
Pinout & Package
DO-35 (DO-204AH) axial-leaded hermetically sealed glass package; cathode indicated by single black band; leads tin-lead or RoHS-compliant matte-tin plated; weight ≈0.2 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (unbanded end) | Reference ground node | Connected to system ground or common return; must remain at lower potential than cathode during regulation. |
| Cathode (banded end) | Zener output terminal | Provides regulated 75 V output when reverse-biased; polarity reversal causes forward conduction and loss of regulation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Metallurgical bond construction | Eliminates interfacial delamination risk under thermal cycling, ensuring long-term stability in launch-vibration environments. |
| JANS qualification per MIL-PRF-19500/435 | Validated for Class S screening including burn-in, temperature cycling, and hermeticity testing - required for flight hardware. |
| 1% Zener voltage tolerance | Reduces need for external trimming in precision reference chains, lowering BOM count in telemetry signal conditioning modules. |
| Radiation hardness | Inherently tolerant to total ionizing dose (TID) per MicroNote 050 - avoids costly rad-hard ASIC redesigns in LEO satellite power systems. |
| Low noise density (1 µV/√Hz) | Enables use in low-phase-noise oscillator biasing where reference noise directly modulates carrier purity. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| JAN1N4131US-1 | Same 75 V, 1% tolerance, but in DO-213AA surface-mount package; no axial leads. | Used where PCB real estate is constrained and wave-soldering is not required. | Select JAN1N4131US-1 only when board layout mandates SMT and thermal pad access is available. |
| 1N4131D-1 (commercial grade) | Identical electrical specs but qualified only to commercial level; no MIL-PRF-19500 screening. | Suitable for ground-test fixtures and non-flight prototypes where cost drives selection. | Choose 1N4131D-1 for development labs; JAN1N4131D-1 remains mandatory for flight hardware per program requirements. |
Compared with JAN1N4131D-1, JAN1N4131US-1 offers identical regulation performance in a space-saving SMT form factor but lacks axial-lead mechanical robustness for vibration-prone mounts, while 1N4131D-1 provides cost savings only where MIL-spec reliability is not mandated.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of JAN1N4131D-1?
JAN1N4131D-1 has a nominal Zener voltage of 75 V with ±1% tolerance, as indicated by the "D" suffix in its nomenclature. This tight tolerance is achieved through post-process binning and verified during JANS-level screening. The 1% spec ensures predictable regulation in closed-loop feedback circuits where reference accuracy directly impacts system gain error.
Is JAN1N4131D-1 suitable for space applications?
Yes, JAN1N4131D-1 is inherently radiation-hard per Microsemi MicroNote 050 and qualified to JANS level per MIL-PRF-19500/435 - including full lot acceptance testing for total ionizing dose (TID) and single-event effects (SEE). Its metallurgically bonded DO-35 package and –65°C to +175°C junction rating make JAN1N4131D-1 appropriate for LEO and GEO satellite power subsystems.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for JAN1N4131D-1?
JAN1N4131D-1 specifies a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 5.1 µA at 60 V reverse voltage and 25°C. This value is measured per MIL-PRF-19500/435 test method 301 and confirmed during JANS screening. At elevated temperatures, leakage increases predictably but remains below 100 µA up to 125°C ambient.
Does JAN1N4131D-1 require heatsinking in standard operation?
No, JAN1N4131D-1 does not require external heatsinking when operated within its 500 mW rated dissipation at lead temperature ≤50°C. Its RθJL of 250°C/W (measured at 3/8″ lead length) allows direct mounting on FR4 PCBs with 4 mm² copper pads. Derating begins linearly above 50°C lead temperature, reaching zero dissipation at 175°C.
How is polarity marked on JAN1N4131D-1?
JAN1N4131D-1 uses a single black band on the glass DO-35 body to indicate the cathode terminal. The banded end must be held at higher potential than the unbanded (anode) end for proper Zener regulation. Reversing polarity forward-biases the diode, resulting in ~1.1 V drop and loss of regulation - a critical check during board assembly verification.
