Product details
Overview
JANS1N4989CUS/TR from Microsemi is a hermetically sealed, voidless-glass surface-mount Zener diode rated for 5 W power dissipation at TEC = 125 °C, with nominal Zener voltage of 200 V ±1% (C suffix), dynamic impedance of 500 Ω at IZT = 5 mA, and operating junction temperature range of −65 °C to +175 °C. It serves as a precision voltage reference and overvoltage clamp in high-reliability military power conditioning circuits.
For engineers reviewing the JANS1N4989CUS/TR datasheet, JANS1N4989CUS/TR pinout, JANS1N4989CUS/TR application, or JANS1N4989CUS/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its MIL-PRF-19500/356 qualification, Category III metallurgical bond construction, radiation-hardened behavior per MicroNote 050, and compatibility with EIA-481-B tape-and-reel handling.
Technical Context
This device belongs to the JANS-classified 1N4954US–1N4996US series, fabricated using triple-layer passivated, voidless hard-glass encapsulation with tungsten slugs and copper end caps finished in Sn/Pb. Its Category III internal metallurgical bond ensures mechanical robustness under thermal shock and vibration stress.
It operates across a wide reverse current range (IZK = 5 mA to IZM = 1.0 A), delivering stable regulation with ΔVZ ≤ 18 V between 10% and 50% of IZM, and exhibits low temperature coefficient (αVZ = +0.110 %/°C) and nonsensitivity to ESD per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Zener Voltage VZ | 200 V ±1% at IZT = 5 mA - enables precise voltage clamping in 200-V rail protection and reference circuits |
| Power Dissipation | 5 W @ TEC = 125 °C - supports continuous operation in high-temperature avionics and downhole electronics |
| Dynamic Impedance ZZT | 500 Ω @ IZT = 5 mA - limits regulation error under varying load currents in feedback loops |
| Max Reverse Leakage IR | 2 μA @ VR = 152 V - ensures minimal standby current in battery-backed or low-power hold-up circuits |
| Thermal Resistance θJC | 10 °C/W junction-to-end-cap - defines heatsinking requirements for sustained 5-W operation |
| Surge Current IZSM | 1.8 A @ 8.3 ms square wave - withstands transient overvoltage events without degradation |
| Operating Temperature | −65 °C to +175 °C - qualified for extreme-environment deployment including space and jet engine control |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| JANTXV1N4989CUS/TR | Same electrical specs and package, but qualified to JANTXV level (lower screening rigor than JANS); no radiation hardness documentation | Suitable for non-space, non-nuclear defense platforms where TID exposure is not expected | Select when full JANS-level radiation assurance is unnecessary and cost reduction is prioritized |
| 1N4989CUS/TR | Commercial-grade version; lacks MIL-PRF-19500/356 qualification, no Category III bond, untested for radiation or ESD | Limited to benign-temperature industrial controls or lab equipment with no reliability or environmental certification requirements | Use only in non-critical, non-military applications where extended temperature operation and long-term stability are not required |
Compared with JANTXV1N4989CUS/TR and 1N4989CUS/TR, the JANS1N4989CUS/TR delivers verified radiation hardness, Category III metallurgical bonding, and full MIL-PRF-19500/356 compliance-making it the sole choice for mission-critical aerospace, nuclear, and deep-well deployments where field failure is unacceptable.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for JANS1N4989CUS/TR?
The JANS1N4989CUS/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 200 V with ±1% tolerance, indicated by the "C" suffix in the part number. This tight tolerance is achieved through post-trim screening and is specified at IZT = 5 mA and 25 °C, enabling high-accuracy voltage referencing in critical analog circuits where standard ±5% Zeners would introduce unacceptable error.
Is JANS1N4989CUS/TR qualified for space applications?
Yes, JANS1N4989CUS/TR is fully qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/356 Class JANS and documented for radiation hardness per Microsemi MicroNote 050. Its voidless-glass hermetic seal, Category III metallurgical bond, and performance validation up to 100 krad(Si) make it suitable for low-earth orbit and geosynchronous satellite power and sensor subsystems.
What is the maximum continuous Zener current for JANS1N4989CUS/TR?
The maximum continuous Zener current (IZM) for JANS1N4989CUS/TR is 1.0 A at TEC = 125 °C. This corresponds to its 5 W power rating, and derating is linear above 125 °C to zero at 175 °C. At 25 °C ambient, IZM remains limited by thermal resistance (10 °C/W) and PCB copper area, not junction temperature alone.
Does JANS1N4989CUS/TR have ESD protection built-in?
JANS1N4989CUS/TR is inherently nonsensitive to electrostatic discharge per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020, with no external protection required. It withstands ≥4 kV human-body-model (HBM) ESD events without parameter shift or functional failure-critical for handling in cleanroom and field-deployment environments.
What package type does JANS1N4989CUS/TR use?
JANS1N4989CUS/TR uses the "E" package (also known as D-5B), a surface-mount hermetically sealed voidless glass case with tungsten slugs and copper end caps finished in Sn/Pb. It conforms to EIA-481-B tape-and-reel standards and features cathode identification via a visible band on the glass body.
