Product details
Overview
JANS1N4103-1/TR from Microsemi is a 500 mW, 9.1 V Zener voltage regulator diode in DO-35 glass axial-leaded package, qualified to JANS level per MIL-PRF-19500/435 for high-reliability aerospace and defense applications. It delivers ±5% Zener tolerance, 250 mA test current, 200 Ω dynamic impedance at 25 °C, and operates across –65 °C to +175 °C junction temperature range.
For engineers reviewing the JANS1N4103-1/TR datasheet, JANS1N4103-1/TR pinout, JANS1N4103-1/TR application, or JANS1N4103-1/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include radiation-hardened performance, low noise density (1 µV/√Hz), hermetic glass sealing, metallurgical bond construction, and compliance with military reliability screening levels up to JANS.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse-bias breakdown mode to maintain stable 9.1 V regulation over wide current (0.5–7.0 mA) and temperature (–65 °C to +175 °C) ranges. Its internal metallurgical bond ensures mechanical robustness under thermal cycling and shock, while the DO-35 glass package provides hermeticity and low parasitic capacitance (~4 pF).
The device exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of +0.080 %/°C, enabling predictable voltage drift in high-temperature environments. Maximum reverse leakage is 0.5 µA at 7.0 V, and dynamic impedance remains stable at 200 Ω when biased at 250 mA test current - critical for precision reference and voltage-clamp functions in analog signal chains.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4103US-1 | Same electrical specs but in DO-213AA surface-mount package; no axial leads | Used where board space is constrained and reflow assembly is required | Select when transitioning from through-hole to SMT layout; requires footprint redesign |
| JANTXV1N4103-1 | Identical Zener parameters but qualified only to JANTXV level (not JANS); lower radiation tolerance | Suitable for ground-based military systems where TID < 30 krad(Si) is acceptable | Choose for cost-sensitive programs where full JANS screening is not mandated |
Compared with JANS1N4103-1/TR, the 1N4103US-1 offers identical regulation performance in a compact SMT form factor, while JANTXV1N4103-1 reduces cost and lead time by omitting JANS-level radiation testing - both require validation against system-level reliability requirements.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for JANS1N4103-1/TR?
JANS1N4103-1/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 9.1 V with ±5% tolerance, consistent with JEDEC-standard 1N4099–1N4135 series specifications. This tolerance applies at 250 mA test current and 25 °C ambient, and is maintained across the full JANS qualification temperature range (–65 °C to +175 °C).
Is JANS1N4103-1/TR suitable for space applications?
Yes, JANS1N4103-1/TR is qualified to JANS level per MIL-PRF-19500/435 and inherently radiation-hardened as documented in Microsemi MicroNote 050. It is routinely deployed in LEO and GEO satellite subsystems for voltage reference and overvoltage protection where total ionizing dose resistance and parametric stability are mandatory.
What is the maximum Zener current for JANS1N4103-1/TR?
The maximum Zener current IZM for JANS1N4103-1/TR is 7.0 mA at 25 °C, derived from its 500 mW power rating and 9.1 V Zener voltage. At elevated temperatures, this value decreases linearly per the derating curve - reaching zero at +175 °C junction temperature.
Does JANS1N4103-1/TR have RoHS compliance?
No, JANS1N4103-1/TR is not RoHS compliant. Per the nomenclature guide in the datasheet, RoHS versions (suffix "e3") are available only for commercial-grade parts. JANS-level devices retain tin-lead plating to meet MIL-STD-750 solderability and reliability requirements.
How is polarity marked on JANS1N4103-1/TR?
JANS1N4103-1/TR uses a cathode band - a single colored ring near one end of the DO-35 glass body - to indicate the cathode terminal. For proper Zener regulation, the banded end must be held at a higher potential than the unmarked (anode) end. This marking is verified per MIL-STD-750 method 2015.
