Product details
Overview
JANS1N4112-1/TR from Microsemi is a 500 mW, 18.0 V Zener voltage regulator diode in DO-35 (DO-204AH) glass package, qualified to JANS level per MIL-PRF-19500/435 for high-reliability aerospace and defense applications. It delivers ±5% Zener tolerance, 100 Ω dynamic impedance at 250 mA test current, and operates across –65 °C to +175 °C junction temperature range.
For engineers reviewing the JANS1N4112-1/TR datasheet, JANS1N4112-1/TR pinout, JANS1N4112-1/TR application, or JANS1N4112-1/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its radiation-hardened metallurgical bond construction, low noise density (≤1 µV/√Hz below 6.8 V), 0.05 µA max reverse leakage at 13.7 V, and compliance with MIL-STD-750 ESD testing.
Technical Context
This JANS-level Zener diode uses a hermetically sealed axial-leaded glass DO-35 package with tin-lead plating and cathode band polarity marking. Its metallurgical bond ensures stable regulation under thermal cycling and radiation exposure, supporting operation up to 175 °C junction temperature with linear power derating from 500 mW at 25 °C to zero at 175 °C.
The device regulates voltage over broad current ranges (IZK to IZM = 13.7 mA to 40 mA) with a temperature coefficient of +0.090 %/°C and typical capacitance <1.5 pF - critical for precision reference and low-noise analog signal conditioning in harsh-environment systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage VZ | 18.0 V at 250 mA test current - sets precise DC reference point for voltage-clamp or shunt-regulator circuits. |
| Zener Tolerance | ±5% - defines worst-case output voltage deviation in production units without binning. |
| Power Dissipation | 500 mW at 25 °C lead temperature - limits continuous operating current to ~27.8 mA at 18 V before thermal derating applies. |
| Dynamic Impedance ZZT | 100 Ω at 250 mA - determines output voltage stability under load transients; lower values improve regulation accuracy. |
| Reverse Leakage IR | 0.05 µA max at 13.7 V - ensures minimal parasitic current draw in high-impedance bias networks. |
| Temp Coefficient αVZ | +0.090 %/°C - quantifies drift rate; enables compensation design for wide-temperature-range references. |
| Noise Density ND | ≤1 µV/√Hz - supports ultra-low-noise analog front-ends where reference noise directly impacts ADC SNR. |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-35 (DO-204AH), axial-leaded, hermetically sealed glass case with cathode band marking. Leads are tin-lead plated and solderable per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal / Zener cathode reference ground | Connected to system ground or low-impedance return path; reverse-biased operation requires cathode at higher potential. |
| Cathode | Zener regulation terminal / voltage reference node | Banded end; held at regulated 18.0 V above anode; used as stable reference input for op-amps or feedback networks. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Metallurgical bond construction | Enables JANS qualification and radiation hardness per Microsemi MicroNote 050 - essential for space-grade reliability. |
| Low noise density | ≤1 µV/√Hz below 6.8 V - minimizes contribution to total integrated noise in precision voltage references. |
| MIL-PRF-19500/435 qualification | Qualified to JANS level - guarantees screening, lot traceability, and extended temperature performance for defense/aerospace use. |
| Hermetic glass packaging | Prevents moisture ingress and long-term parameter drift - critical for >10-year mission life in sealed enclosures. |
| ESD robustness | Non-sensitive per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020 - eliminates need for handling precautions during board assembly. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| JANTXV1N4112-1 | Same electrical specs but qualified only to JANTXV level; lacks full JANS screening (e.g., burn-in, radiation testing). | Approved for high-reliability ground systems but not spaceflight or nuclear-hardened platforms. | Select when full JANS qualification is not mandated and cost reduction is prioritized. |
| 1N4112US-TR | Commercial-grade DO-213AA surface-mount variant; same VZ, but 250 mW rating and no MIL qualification. | Suitable for commercial avionics or industrial controls where radiation tolerance and extended temperature are not required. | Choose for automated SMT assembly and non-military BOMs with relaxed reliability requirements. |
Compared with JANS1N4112-1/TR, JANTXV1N4112-1 offers identical regulation performance with reduced screening rigor, while 1N4112US-TR trades hermeticity and power rating for PCB area savings and reflow compatibility - enabling tiered sourcing across military, industrial, and commercial programs.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for JANS1N4112-1/TR?
JANS1N4112-1/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 18.0 V with a ±5% tolerance, as defined by JEDEC standards and verified per MIL-PRF-19500/435 screening. This tolerance applies across the full qualified temperature range and reflects worst-case deviation in production lots without binning.
Is JANS1N4112-1/TR compatible with lead-free reflow soldering?
JANS1N4112-1/TR features tin-lead plating and is rated for soldering at 260 °C for 10 seconds per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026. While it can withstand lead-free reflow profiles, its termination is not RoHS-compliant; Microsemi does not offer a RoHS version of this JANS-level part.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for JANS1N4112-1/TR?
The maximum reverse leakage current for JANS1N4112-1/TR is 0.05 µA at 13.7 V (75% of VZ), measured at 25 °C per the Electrical Characteristics table. This value remains stable across the full –65 °C to +175 °C junction temperature range due to metallurgical bond integrity.
Does JANS1N4112-1/TR require derating above 25 °C ambient?
Yes - JANS1N4112-1/TR must be linearly derated from 500 mW starting at 25 °C ambient on a typical FR4 PCB, reaching zero dissipation at 175 °C. Derating follows a slope of –3.57 mW/°C, based on RθJA = 300 °C/W and thermal pad layout per datasheet note.
How is polarity marked on JANS1N4112-1/TR?
JANS1N4112-1/TR uses a cathode band marking on the glass body - the banded end is the cathode and must be held at a higher potential than the anode for Zener regulation. Polarity is confirmed visually and verified per MIL-STD-750 Method 2011.
