Product details
Overview
JANS1N4127C-1/TR from Microsemi is a 56 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 voltage regulation. It delivers stable reference voltage with 300 Ω dynamic impedance at 250 mA test current and operates across –65 °C to +175 °C junction temperature range.
For engineers reviewing the JANS1N4127C-1/TR datasheet, JANS1N4127C-1/TR pinout, JANS1N4127C-1/TR application, or JANS1N4127C-1/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (2%), radiation hardness, noise density (≤1 µV/√Hz), and military-grade thermal derating behavior up to 175 °C.
Technical Context
This device functions as a precision voltage reference in regulated power supplies and analog signal conditioning circuits where long-term stability under extreme thermal and radiation environments is required. Its internal metallurgical bond ensures low parameter drift and hermetic reliability, while the DO-35 axial-glass package supports lead-forming for through-hole mounting in ruggedized PCB assemblies.
The JANS1N4127C-1/TR exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of +0.100 %/°C above 6.8 V, enabling predictable voltage shift over temperature-critical for biasing circuits in satellite telemetry systems and avionics sensor interfaces. Its maximum reverse leakage is 0.01 µA at 42.6 V, supporting ultra-low-power standby regulation.
Key Specifications

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of JANS1N4127C-1/TR?
The JANS1N4127C-1/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 56 V with a tolerance of ±2%, denoted by the "C" suffix in its part number per Microsemi's nomenclature. This tolerance is verified under standard test conditions at 25 °C with 250 mA Zener test current and applies across the full qualified temperature range when used within specified power derating limits.
Is JANS1N4127C-1/TR radiation hardened?
Yes, the JANS1N4127C-1/TR is inherently radiation hard per Microsemi MicroNote 050 due to its metallurgically bonded structure and hermetic DO-35 package. It is qualified to JANS level per MIL-PRF-19500/435, which includes radiation testing protocols appropriate for low-earth orbit and terrestrial nuclear environments.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for JANS1N4127C-1/TR?
The maximum reverse leakage current (IR) for JANS1N4127C-1/TR is 0.01 µA measured at 42.6 V (76% of nominal VZ). This value is specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the T4-LDS-0245-2 datasheet and reflects performance under standard 25 °C ambient conditions.
Does JANS1N4127C-1/TR require derating above 25 °C?
Yes, JANS1N4127C-1/TR must be linearly derated starting at 25 °C ambient temperature, reducing average power dissipation from 500 mW to zero at 175 °C. Derating follows the curve shown in Figure 2 of the datasheet and accounts for both ambient and lead temperature effects per MIL-PRF-19500/435 requirements.
What does the "TR" suffix indicate in JANS1N4127C-1/TR?
The "TR" suffix in JANS1N4127C-1/TR indicates tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-296 standard, enabling automated placement in high-volume manufacturing. This packaging option is available for all variants in the 1N4099–1N4135 series and does not affect electrical or reliability specifications of the JANS1N4127C-1/TR device itself.
