Product details
Overview
JANS1N4128-1/TR from Microsemi is a 60 V, 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 60.0 V nominal Zener voltage at 250 mA test current, with ±5% tolerance, 400 Ω dynamic impedance, and 0.01 µA reverse leakage at 45.6 V.
For engineers reviewing the JANS1N4128-1/TR datasheet, JANS1N4128-1/TR pinout, JANS1N4128-1/TR application, or JANS1N4128-1/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include military-grade reliability qualification, low noise density (≤1 µV/√Hz below 6.8 V), radiation hardness, and axial-leaded DO-35 thermal performance up to +175 °C junction temperature.
Technical Context
This device operates as a precision voltage reference and regulator in reverse-biased breakdown mode, with cathode band marking polarity. Its metallurgical bond construction ensures stable Zener voltage regulation across wide current (250 mA IZT) and temperature (–65 to +175 °C) ranges, supporting operation in harsh environments without derating until lead temperature exceeds 50 °C.
The JANS1N4128-1/TR exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of +0.100 %/°C, enabling predictable voltage drift in thermal cycling. Its 400 Ω dynamic impedance at 250 mA and minimal capacitance (typical <2 pF at 60 V) support stable regulation in low-noise analog and power-supply feedback circuits where transient response and signal integrity are critical.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4128US-1 | Same 60 V Zener voltage and JANS qualification, but in DO-213AA surface-mount package | Requires PCB re-layout for SMT assembly; lacks axial mounting flexibility | Select when board space constraints mandate surface-mount integration without lead-forming |
| JANTXV1N4128-1 | Identical electrical specs and DO-35 package, but qualified only to JANTXV (not JANS) per MIL-PRF-19500/435 | Not approved for mission-critical space or nuclear applications requiring full JANS screening | Select for high-reliability ground-based defense systems where JANS-level testing is not mandated |
Compared with JANS1N4128-1/TR, the 1N4128US-1 offers identical regulation performance in a space-saving SMT form factor, while JANTXV1N4128-1 provides cost-optimized access to the same Zener characteristics with reduced screening depth-both require explicit validation against system-level radiation, thermal, and mechanical requirements.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for JANS1N4128-1/TR?
JANS1N4128-1/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 60.0 V with a standard tolerance of ±5%, as defined by its JEDEC registration and MIL-PRF-19500/435 qualification. This tolerance applies at 250 mA test current and 25 °C ambient temperature, and is maintained across the full JANS screening and burn-in process to ensure consistency in high-reliability deployments.
Is JANS1N4128-1/TR RoHS compliant?
No, JANS1N4128-1/TR is not RoHS compliant. The "JANS" prefix indicates military-specification qualification under MIL-PRF-19500/435, which permits leaded terminations. RoHS-compliant versions (e.g., with "e3" suffix) are available only for commercial-grade variants such as 1N4128-1e3-not for JANS-level devices like JANS1N4128-1/TR.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for JANS1N4128-1/TR?
JANS1N4128-1/TR specifies a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 0.01 µA at 45.6 V (76% of nominal Zener voltage). This ultra-low leakage is verified during JANS-level screening and supports use in high-impedance bias networks where even femtoamp-level currents could degrade measurement accuracy or timing stability.
Can JANS1N4128-1/TR be used in surface-mount designs?
JANS1N4128-1/TR is packaged in axial-leaded DO-35 and is not designed for direct surface-mount assembly. For SMT-compatible equivalents, consider the 1N4128US-1 in DO-213AA package-same 60 V Zener voltage and JANS qualification-but requires separate layout and reflow validation. JANS1N4128-1/TR must be through-hole mounted with appropriate lead forming and strain relief.
What is the thermal resistance specification for JANS1N4128-1/TR?
JANS1N4128-1/TR has a junction-to-lead thermal resistance (RθJL) of 250 °C/W when measured with 10 mm (3/8 inch) lead length from the body, per MIL-STD-750 test method. This value assumes standard FR4 board mounting with 4 mm² copper pads and is critical for calculating safe operating area under sustained 250 mA Zener current conditions.
