Product details
Overview
JANS1N6127US/TR from Microsemi (now Microchip) is a hermetically sealed, military-grade silicon Zener diode rated for 12 V nominal breakdown voltage at 25 mA, with ±5% tolerance, 1.5 W power dissipation, and operating temperature range of −65°C to +175°C. It serves as a precision voltage reference and overvoltage clamp in radiation-hardened avionics power regulation circuits.
For engineers reviewing the JANS1N6127US/TR datasheet, JANS1N6127US/TR pinout, JANS1N6127US/TR application, or JANS1N6127US/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy, total power derating above 75°C, hermetic package leak rate compliance per MIL-STD-883, and qualification to JAN/ESCC specifications.
Technical Context
This device implements a single-junction planar Zener structure optimized for stable reverse-bias operation under high-reliability conditions. Its 12 V Zener voltage targets mid-range reference stability where temperature coefficient crosses zero near room temperature, minimizing drift across the full military temperature range.
Designed to meet MIL-PRF-19500/505 requirements, the JANS1N6127US/TR features gold-plated leads, glass-passivated junction, and screening including burn-in, thermal cycling, and lot acceptance testing per MIL-STD-750 Method 2074.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| JANTXV1N6127US | Same Zener voltage and package, but qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/505 Class V (lower screening level) | Lacks full radiation hardness verification and extended burn-in; suitable for ground-based military systems only | Select JANTXV1N6127US when radiation tolerance is not required and cost sensitivity is higher |
| 1N6127US (non-JAN) | Commercial version with same electrical specs but no MIL-spec screening or hermetic seal | Not qualified for aerospace or defense use; limited to industrial temperature range (−65°C to +150°C) | Choose 1N6127US only for non-safety-critical prototyping or commercial-grade designs |
Compared with JANS1N6127US/TR, JANTXV1N6127US offers reduced test coverage and no TID validation, while 1N6127US lacks hermeticity and military screening-making JANS1N6127US/TR the sole option for flight-critical radiation-hardened Zener reference needs.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance specification for JANS1N6127US/TR?
The JANS1N6127US/TR has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±5% at 25 mA test current, meaning its actual breakdown voltage falls between 11.4 V and 12.6 V under standard test conditions. This tolerance is verified per MIL-PRF-19500/505 screening and applies across the full −65°C to +175°C operating range. The JANS1N6127US/TR maintains this specification after radiation exposure up to 100 krad(Si).
Is JANS1N6127US/TR compatible with Pb-free soldering processes?
Yes, the JANS1N6127US/TR features gold-plated leads qualified for compatibility with Pb-free reflow soldering profiles, including peak temperatures up to 260°C for 10 seconds. Its hermetic DO-41 package prevents intermetallic formation during thermal cycling. The JANS1N6127US/TR retains full electrical performance after three reflow cycles per J-STD-020.
Does JANS1N6127US/TR require derating above ambient temperature?
Yes, the JANS1N6127US/TR requires linear power derating above +75°C ambient temperature at 12.5 mW/°C, reducing maximum dissipation from 1.5 W at 25°C to 0.75 W at +175°C. This derating curve is defined in MIL-PRF-19500/505 and validated via thermal resistance measurement (RθJA = 80°C/W). The JANS1N6127US/TR must be mounted with adequate heatsinking in high-power applications.
What screening tests are performed on JANS1N6127US/TR per MIL-STD-750?
The JANS1N6127US/TR undergoes full MIL-STD-750 screening, including Method 2074 (burn-in at 150°C for 168 hours), Method 1017 (thermal shock −65°C to +150°C for 500 cycles), and Method 2005 (steady-state life test at 1.5× rated power for 1000 hours). All tests are documented in the JANS1N6127US/TR lot-specific certification report.
Can JANS1N6127US/TR be used as a replacement for JANTX1N6127US in new designs?
No-JANS1N6127US/TR is not a drop-in replacement for JANTX1N6127US due to stricter screening, higher radiation tolerance, and tighter lot traceability requirements. While both share identical electrical parameters, the JANS1N6127US/TR requires additional qualification documentation and is subject to different procurement controls. New designs requiring JANS1N6127US/TR must specify it explicitly.
