Product details
Overview
JANS1N4112C-1/TR from Microsemi is a 18 V, 2% tolerance, 500 mW metallurgically bonded glass Zener diode in DO-35 package, qualified to JANS level per MIL-PRF-19500/435 for high-reliability aerospace and defense applications. It delivers stable voltage regulation with 100 Ω dynamic impedance at 250 mA test current, 0.05 µA reverse leakage at 14.4 V, and +0.090 %/°C temperature coefficient.
For engineers reviewing the JANS1N4112C-1/TR datasheet, JANS1N4112C-1/TR pinout, JANS1N4112C-1/TR application, or JANS1N4112C-1/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (2%), radiation hardness, hermetic glass packaging, noise density (≤1 µV/√Hz), and MIL-qualified thermal derating behavior up to +175 °C junction temperature.
Technical Context
This device operates as a precision shunt voltage regulator in reverse-biased breakdown mode, with cathode band marking polarity. Its metallurgical bond construction ensures low noise and stable long-term Zener voltage drift under thermal cycling and radiation exposure.
It is rated for 500 mW average power dissipation at 25 °C lead temperature, linearly derated to zero at +175 °C, and exhibits minimal capacitance (<2 pF typical at 18 V) and non-ESD-sensitive behavior per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4112US-1 | Same 18 V, 2% spec but in DO-213AA surface-mount package; no axial leads | Requires PCB re-layout for SMT assembly; lacks axial mounting flexibility | Select when automated placement and board space savings outweigh manual assembly needs |
| JANTXV1N4112C-1 | Identical electrical specs and DO-35 package, but qualified only to JANTXV level (not JANS) | Approved for high-reliability ground systems but not spaceflight or nuclear environments | Select for cost-sensitive defense programs where full JANS screening is not mandated |
Compared with JANS1N4112C-1/TR, the 1N4112US-1 offers SMT compatibility at the expense of mechanical mounting versatility, while JANTXV1N4112C-1 reduces qualification cost without compromising electrical performance-enabling tiered sourcing based on mission assurance requirements.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage and tolerance of JANS1N4112C-1/TR?
JANS1N4112C-1/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 18.0 V with a tight ±2% tolerance at 250 mA test current. This tolerance is indicated by the "C" suffix in the part number and is verified per MIL-PRF-19500/435 screening requirements for JANS-level devices.
Is JANS1N4112C-1/TR suitable for space applications?
Yes, JANS1N4112C-1/TR is qualified to JANS level per MIL-PRF-19500/435, including radiation hardness characterization per Microsemi MicroNote 050. Its hermetic DO-35 package and metallurgical bond construction make it suitable for low-earth orbit and deep-space missions requiring long-term parametric stability.
What is the maximum power dissipation and derating behavior of JANS1N4112C-1/TR?
JANS1N4112C-1/TR is rated for 500 mW average power dissipation at 25 °C lead temperature. Power must be linearly derated starting at 50 °C lead temperature, reaching zero at +175 °C. For ambient conditions on a typical FR4 board, derating begins at 25 °C and follows the same linear slope.
Does JANS1N4112C-1/TR have low noise performance?
Yes, JANS1N4112C-1/TR exhibits ≤1 µV/√Hz noise density at its 18 V Zener voltage, measured in the 1–3 kHz band at 250 mA. This low-noise characteristic is enabled by its metallurgically bonded structure and makes it appropriate for precision analog references and sensor excitation circuits.
What does the "TR" suffix indicate in JANS1N4112C-1/TR?
The "TR" suffix in JANS1N4112C-1/TR indicates tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-296 standard, enabling automated pick-and-place assembly. This format is standard for volume orders and supports consistent handling and traceability throughout manufacturing and inspection processes.
