Product details
Overview
JANS1N4614-1/TR from Microsemi is a 1.8 V, ±5% tolerance, 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. It delivers stable voltage regulation at 250 mA test current with 1200 Ω dynamic impedance and -0.075 %/°C temperature coefficient.
For engineers reviewing the JANS1N4614-1/TR datasheet, JANS1N4614-1/TR pinout, JANS1N4614-1/TR application, or JANS1N4614-1/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its JANS-level radiation hardness, low noise density (1 µV/√Hz), hermetic glass packaging, and operation across -65 °C to +175 °C junction temperature range.
Technical Context
This device operates as a precision shunt voltage regulator in reverse-biased breakdown mode, with cathode band indicating polarity and requiring banded end to be positive relative to anode for regulation. Its metallurgical bond ensures mechanical stability under thermal cycling and shock, critical for space-grade deployments.
The 1.8 V nominal Zener voltage is specified at IZT = 250 mA with ZZT ≤ 1200 Ω and αVZ = -0.075 %/°C - a negative coefficient typical of low-voltage Zeners. Maximum reverse leakage IR is 3.5 µA at VR = 1.0 V, and noise density is rated at 1 µV/√Hz, verified per Figure 1 test circuit using 1–3 kHz bandpass filtering.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage VZ | 1.8 V at 250 mA - defines precise regulation point for low-voltage reference circuits |
| Power Rating PM(AV) | 0.5 W at 25 °C - supports continuous regulation in compact, unheatsinked layouts |
| Dynamic Impedance ZZT | ≤1200 Ω - limits output voltage variation under load current changes |
| Temp Coefficient αVZ | -0.075 %/°C - enables predictable drift compensation in wide-temperature environments |
| Noise Density ND | 1 µV/√Hz - ensures minimal added noise in precision analog references and sensor biasing |
| Max Reverse Leakage IR | 3.5 µA @ 1.0 V - guarantees low standby power loss in always-on regulation paths |
| Junction Temp Range | -65 °C to +175 °C - validated for extreme-environment operation without derating penalties |
Pinout & Package
DO-35 (DO-204AH) axial-leaded hermetically sealed glass package with tin-lead or RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating; cathode identified by single black band; weight ≈ 0.2 g; lead length 25.4–38.1 mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (unbanded end) | Reference ground node | Connected to system ground or lowest potential point in shunt regulation topology |
| Cathode (banded end) | Regulated output node | Provides stable 1.8 V output when reverse-biased; must be held positive relative to anode |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| JANTXV1N4614-1 | Same electrical specs but qualified only to JANTXV level (not JANS); no radiation hardness validation | Lacks full space qualification; suitable for ground-based military systems with lower TID requirements | Select when full JANS screening is not mandated and cost reduction is prioritized |
| 1N4614US-1 | Same Zener voltage and DO-35 package but commercial-grade (non-mil-qualified); RoHS compliant (e3 suffix) | No MIL-PRF-19500 screening; limited temp range (-65 °C to +150 °C); not radiation hardened | Use only in non-safety-critical, terrestrial industrial designs where qualification overhead is unnecessary |
Compared with JANS1N4614-1/TR, JANTXV1N4614-1 offers identical regulation performance but omits radiation testing and extended temperature validation, while 1N4614US-1 sacrifices all military screening for RoHS compliance and lower cost - making JANS1N4614-1/TR the sole choice for flight-critical voltage references.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for JANS1N4614-1/TR?
JANS1N4614-1/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 1.8 V with ±5% tolerance, consistent with the standard JEDEC specification for the 1N4614-1 family. This tolerance is measured at 250 mA test current under thermal equilibrium at 25 °C ambient, as defined in the T4-LDS-0245-2 datasheet.
Is JANS1N4614-1/TR compatible with lead-free soldering processes?
JANS1N4614-1/TR supports lead-free assembly with a maximum solder temperature of 260 °C for 10 seconds, per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026. Its terminations are plated with annealed matte-tin (RoHS-compliant on commercial variants), and the DO-35 glass package withstands thermal shock during reflow.
Does JANS1N4614-1/TR require heatsinking in normal operation?
No heatsink is required for JANS1N4614-1/TR at ambient temperatures ≤50 °C, as its 500 mW power rating is fully usable within that range. Above 50 °C, linear derating applies - dropping to zero at 175 °C - based on thermal resistance RθJA = 300 °C/W on FR4 board with 4 mm² copper pads.
What does the "TR" suffix indicate in JANS1N4614-1/TR?
The "TR" suffix in JANS1N4614-1/TR denotes tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-296 standard, enabling automated pick-and-place assembly. This format is standard for volume orders and does not affect electrical or reliability specifications of the JANS1N4614-1/TR device itself.
How is the polarity marked on JANS1N4614-1/TR?
JANS1N4614-1/TR uses a single black band on the glass body to identify the cathode terminal. For proper Zener regulation, the banded (cathode) end must be held positive relative to the unbanded (anode) end - reverse-biasing the junction to enter breakdown conduction.
