Product details
Overview
JANTX1N4099D-1 from Microsemi is a 1% tolerance, 6.8 V, 500 mW metallurgically bonded glass Zener diode in DO-35 package, qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/435 JANTX level for high-reliability voltage regulation in aerospace and defense power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the JANTX1N4099D-1 datasheet, JANTX1N4099D-1 pinout, JANTX1N4099D-1 application, or JANTX1N4099D-1 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±1%), dynamic impedance (200 Ω @ 250 mA), noise density (40 µV/√Hz), temperature coefficient (+0.060 %/°C), and hermetic DO-35 packaging for harsh-environment stability.
Technical Context
This device operates as a precision shunt voltage regulator with a nominal Zener voltage of 6.8 V at 250 mA test current, exhibiting low dynamic impedance (200 Ω) and tightly controlled temperature coefficient (+0.060 %/°C), enabling stable reference performance across military temperature ranges (–65 °C to +175 °C).
Its metallurgical bond construction ensures low noise density (40 µV/√Hz), minimal capacitance (typ. <2 pF), and inherent radiation hardness per Microsemi MicroNote 050 - features critical for analog signal conditioning and voltage reference circuits in avionics and space-grade systems.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4099US-1 | Same electrical specs, but in surface-mount DO-213AA package | Requires PCB rework for SMT assembly; no axial lead option | Select when automated placement and board space reduction are priorities over through-hole serviceability |
| JANTXV1N4099D-1 | Identical specs with enhanced screening (JANTXV level per MIL-PRF-19500/435) | Required for Class H/V systems where burn-in and life test data are mandated | Select when program requirements specify JANTXV-level qualification for mission-critical subsystems |
Compared with JANTX1N4099D-1, the 1N4099US-1 offers identical regulation performance in a smaller footprint but eliminates field-replaceability, while JANTXV1N4099D-1 adds rigorous screening for longer life and lower infant mortality - both require explicit validation against the same circuit's thermal and mechanical stress profile.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of JANTX1N4099D-1?
JANTX1N4099D-1 has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±1%, denoted by the "D" suffix in its part number per MIL-PRF-19500/435 nomenclature. This means its measured VZ at 250 mA falls within 6.732 V to 6.868 V at 25 °C. The tighter tolerance reduces calibration burden in precision analog circuits and improves consistency across production lots of JANTX1N4099D-1 units.
Is JANTX1N4099D-1 RoHS compliant?
No, JANTX1N4099D-1 is not RoHS compliant. Per the manufacturer's documentation, RoHS-compliant versions (e.g., with "e3" suffix) are available only for commercial-grade variants, not for JAN/JANTX-qualified parts. JANTX1N4099D-1 uses traditional tin-lead plating on leads and meets MIL-STD-750 solderability requirements, making it suitable for legacy military and aerospace assemblies where Pb-free compliance is not mandated.
What is the maximum Zener current IZM for JANTX1N4099D-1?
The maximum Zener current IZM for JANTX1N4099D-1 is 76.0 mA, calculated from its 500 mW power rating and 6.8 V nominal Zener voltage (P = V × I → I = 0.5 W / 6.8 V ≈ 73.5 mA, rounded to 76.0 mA per datasheet Table). This value assumes operation at 25 °C ambient with proper lead heat sinking; derating applies linearly above 50 °C case temperature, reaching zero at 175 °C.
Does JANTX1N4099D-1 have radiation hardness specifications?
Yes, JANTX1N4099D-1 exhibits inherent radiation hardness as documented in Microsemi MicroNote 050. Its metallurgically bonded glass construction and hermetic DO-35 package provide resistance to total ionizing dose (TID) effects, supporting operation in radiation environments typical of low-earth orbit (LEO) and tactical platforms. Specific TID thresholds (e.g., 50 krad(Si)) are verified per customer test reports, not guaranteed in standard datasheet limits for JANTX1N4099D-1.
How is polarity marked on JANTX1N4099D-1?
JANTX1N4099D-1 uses a cathode band marking: a single opaque band near one end of the DO-35 glass body identifies the cathode terminal. For correct Zener operation, this banded end must be connected to the higher-potential node (e.g., unregulated input rail), while the unbanded (anode) end connects to ground or the regulated output node. Polarity reversal will forward-bias the diode and prevent regulation.
