Product details
Overview
JANS1N4617D-1/TR from Microsemi is a 2.4 V, 1% 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, with 1400 Ω dynamic impedance at 250 mA test current and -0.075 %/°C temperature coefficient.
For engineers reviewing the JANS1N4617D-1/TR datasheet, JANS1N4617D-1/TR pinout, JANS1N4617D-1/TR application, or JANS1N4617D-1/TR equivalent, this page delivers verified Zener voltage, MIL-spec qualification level, thermal resistance, noise density, and radiation-hardened performance data critical for precision voltage reference and regulation in harsh-environment systems.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference in reverse-biased breakdown mode, delivering stable 2.4 V regulation across 250 mA test current and full temperature range (-65 °C to +175 °C). Its metallurgical bond construction ensures low noise (1 µV/√Hz typical), minimal capacitance, and inherent radiation hardness per Microsemi MicroNote 050.
The JANS1N4617D-1/TR is rated for 0.5 W average power dissipation with linear derating from 500 mW at 25 °C to zero at 175 °C, and exhibits 250 °C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance when mounted with 10 mm lead length - enabling reliable operation in conduction-cooled military chassis designs.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of JANS1N4617D-1/TR?
The JANS1N4617D-1/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 2.4 V with a tight ±1% tolerance, indicated by the "D" suffix in the part number per Microsemi's nomenclature. This tolerance is guaranteed over the full operating temperature range and qualifies the device for precision reference applications where voltage accuracy is critical, such as in flight control system analog interfaces.
Is JANS1N4617D-1/TR radiation hardened?
Yes, the JANS1N4617D-1/TR is inherently radiation hard as documented in Microsemi MicroNote 050. Its metallurgically bonded structure and hermetic DO-35 packaging provide proven resilience against total ionizing dose (TID) and single-event effects, meeting requirements for use in satellites and nuclear instrumentation where radiation exposure is unavoidable.
What does the "TR" suffix mean in JANS1N4617D-1/TR?
The "TR" suffix in JANS1N4617D-1/TR indicates tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-296 standards, enabling automated placement in high-volume manufacturing. This format is standard for the JANS grade and supports consistent feeding in pick-and-place systems used for assembling ruggedized military PCBs.
What is the maximum Zener test current IZT for JANS1N4617D-1/TR?
The JANS1N4617D-1/TR is specified with a Zener test current IZT of 250 mA, at which its 2.4 V Zener voltage and 1400 Ω dynamic impedance are measured. This current level reflects the device's optimal regulation point and aligns with its 500 mW power rating at 25 °C ambient temperature.
How does the temperature coefficient affect JANS1N4617D-1/TR performance?
The JANS1N4617D-1/TR has a temperature coefficient αVZ of -0.075 %/°C, meaning its Zener voltage decreases by approximately 1.8 mV per °C rise. This predictable negative drift allows system designers to compensate for thermal effects in high-stability reference circuits, especially in environments with wide operational temperature swings.
