Product details
Overview
JANS1N4124-1/TR from Microsemi is a 43.0 V, 500 mW metallurgically bonded glass Zener diode in DO-35 (DO-204AH) axial-leaded package, qualified to JANS level per MIL-PRF-19500/435 for high-reliability aerospace and defense applications, with 1% Zener voltage tolerance, 250 µA test current, and 250 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT.
For engineers reviewing the JANS1N4124-1/TR datasheet, JANS1N4124-1/TR pinout, JANS1N4124-1/TR application, or JANS1N4124-1/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its radiation-hardened construction, low noise density (≤1 µV/√Hz), temperature coefficient of +0.095 %/°C, and hermetic DO-35 packaging suitable for extreme-environment voltage regulation.
Technical Context
This device operates as a precision shunt voltage regulator in reverse-bias breakdown mode, with cathode band marking polarity and specified Zener voltage measured at 250 µA IZT under thermal equilibrium. Its metallurgical bond ensures stable junction behavior across wide temperature ranges (-65 °C to +175 °C).
The JANS1N4124-1/TR exhibits low capacitance (typical <2 pF at 0 V), minimal ESD sensitivity per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020, and inherent radiation hardness documented in Microsemi MicroNote 050 - characteristics critical for space-grade power conditioning and reference circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage VZ | 43.0 V ±1% at 250 µA - enables precise 43 V reference generation with tight tolerance for mission-critical biasing. |
| Power Dissipation | 500 mW @ TC = 25 °C - supports stable regulation in compact through-hole layouts with linear derating to zero at 175 °C. |
| Dynamic Impedance ZZT | 250 Ω @ 250 µA - ensures low AC impedance for effective ripple suppression in analog supply rails. |
| Reverse Leakage IR | ≤0.01 µA @ 32.7 V - guarantees minimal quiescent current draw in low-power standby circuits. |
| Temp. Coefficient αVZ | +0.095 %/°C - provides predictable, monotonic VZ drift over temperature for calibrated reference designs. |
| Noise Density ND | ≤1 µV/√Hz @ IZT - delivers ultra-low broadband noise essential for high-resolution ADC references and sensor excitation. |
| Max Zener Current IZM | 32.7 mA - defines safe continuous operating limit before thermal runaway under full-rated power. |
Pinout & Package
DO-35 (DO-204AH) hermetically sealed axial-leaded glass package with tin-lead or RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating; cathode indicated by single black band; weight ≈0.2 g; lead length 25.4–38.1 mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| JANTXV1N4124-1 | Same electrical specs but qualified only to JANTXV level; lower screening rigor than JANS. | Limited to non-flight-critical ground support equipment where full JANS radiation testing is not mandated. | Select when cost and lead time constraints outweigh need for full space qualification. |
| 1N4124US-1 | Surface-mount DO-213AA variant; identical VZ, IZT, ZZT, and αVZ but different thermal resistance and mounting geometry. | Used in PCB-space-constrained designs requiring automated assembly; lacks axial-lead flexibility for prototyping or repair. | Choose for volume production where reflow compatibility and board area savings justify redesign. |
Compared with JANTXV1N4124-1 and 1N4124US-1, the JANS1N4124-1/TR offers the highest reliability assurance for flight hardware due to full JANS screening, while retaining identical regulation performance - making it the sole choice for Class S space applications where failure is not an option.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of JANS1N4124-1/TR?
The JANS1N4124-1/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 43.0 V with a ±1% tolerance, as indicated by the "D" suffix in the part nomenclature per Microsemi's T4-LDS-0245-2 specification. This tight tolerance is verified during JANS-level screening and applies at 250 µA test current and 25 °C ambient.
Is JANS1N4124-1/TR compatible with lead-free soldering processes?
JANS1N4124-1/TR uses tin-lead plating per standard configuration and is rated for 260 °C solder temperature for 10 seconds. For RoHS compliance, Microsemi offers commercial-grade e3 variants - however, the JANS-qualified JANS1N4124-1/TR itself is not RoHS-compliant and requires SnPb soldering per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026.
What is the maximum operating temperature range for JANS1N4124-1/TR?
The JANS1N4124-1/TR is rated for junction and storage temperatures from -65 °C to +175 °C, as confirmed in the Maximum Ratings table of T4-LDS-0245-2. Its thermal resistance junction-to-lead is 250 °C/W with 3/8″ lead length, enabling reliable operation in extreme environmental conditions typical of missile guidance and satellite systems.
Does JANS1N4124-1/TR require external heat sinking?
No external heat sink is required for JANS1N4124-1/TR at ambient temperatures below 50 °C, as its 500 mW power rating is fully usable up to that point. Above 50 °C, power must be linearly derated to zero at 175 °C per Figure 2 in T4-LDS-0245-2 - standard FR4 PCB layout with 4 mm² copper pads provides sufficient thermal dissipation for most applications.
How does the noise performance of JANS1N4124-1/TR compare to lower-voltage Zeners?
JANS1N4124-1/TR exhibits ≤1 µV/√Hz noise density at 250 µA, consistent with Microsemi's specification that noise falls rapidly below 6.8 V and stabilizes at this ultra-low level for higher-voltage devices like the 43 V JANS1N4124-1/TR - making it superior to many 5–12 V Zeners in low-noise reference applications requiring high PSRR.
