Product details
Overview
JANTX1N4109D-1 from Microsemi is a 15 V, 1% tolerance, 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 JANTX1N4109D-1 datasheet, JANTX1N4109D-1 pinout, JANTX1N4109D-1 application, or JANTX1N4109D-1 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±1%), dynamic impedance (100 Ω @ 250 mA), noise density (40 µV/√Hz), and JANTX-level qualification for extended temperature operation (-65°C to +175°C).
Technical Context
This device operates as a precision shunt voltage regulator with a nominal Zener voltage of 15.0 V at 250 mA test current (IZT), exhibiting a positive temperature coefficient of +0.085 %/°C and low dynamic impedance of 100 Ω. Its metallurgical bond construction ensures stable regulation across wide current and temperature ranges.
Designed for high-reliability environments, JANTX1N4109D-1 maintains ≤0.05 µA reverse leakage at 12.0 V (VR) and delivers 40 µV/√Hz noise density above 6.8 V - consistent with the 1N4099–1N4135 family's low-noise performance profile.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 15.0 V ±1% at 250 mA - enables precise reference generation in regulated power supplies requiring tight voltage stability. |
| Power Dissipation | 500 mW at 25°C - supports continuous regulation in compact axial-leaded designs with linear derating to zero at 175°C. |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 100 Ω @ IZT - ensures minimal output voltage variation under load transients in feedback reference circuits. |
| Noise Density (ND) | 40 µV/√Hz - critical for low-noise analog references in instrumentation and precision ADC/DAC biasing. |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤0.05 µA @ 12.0 V - guarantees negligible quiescent current draw in standby or low-power monitoring circuits. |
| Temp Coefficient (αVZ) | +0.085 %/°C - provides predictable, monotonic voltage drift over military temperature range (-65°C to +175°C). |
| Junction Temp Range | -65°C to +175°C - validated for operation in harsh-environment avionics, satellite power systems, and downhole electronics. |
Pinout & Package

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4109US-1 | Same electrical specs but in DO-213AA surface-mount package; no axial leads. | Used where board space is constrained and reflow assembly is required; lacks axial mounting flexibility. | Select 1N4109US-1 only when transitioning from through-hole to SMT production and PCB layout permits footprint change. |
| JAN1N4109D-1 | Identical electrical and mechanical specs but qualified only to JAN level (less stringent screening than JANTX). | Suitable for non-safety-critical commercial/military hybrids where full JANTX screening is not mandated. | Choose JAN1N4109D-1 when cost sensitivity outweighs requirement for extended reliability screening per MIL-PRF-19500/435 Table I. |
Compared with JANTX1N4109D-1, 1N4109US-1 offers identical regulation performance in a space-saving SMT form factor but requires PCB redesign, while JAN1N4109D-1 reduces procurement cost by omitting JANTX-level environmental stress screening without sacrificing core Zener functionality.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of JANTX1N4109D-1?
JANTX1N4109D-1 has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±1%, indicated by the "D" suffix in its part number per Microsemi's nomenclature. This is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of T4-LDS-0245-2 Rev. 1, where VZ = 15.0 V at IZT = 250 mA with 1% tolerance. The tighter tolerance reduces calibration burden in precision reference designs compared to standard 5% variants like JANTX1N4109-1.
Is JANTX1N4109D-1 qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/435?
Yes, JANTX1N4109D-1 is qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/435 at the JANTX reliability level, as stated in the DESCRIPTION section on page 1 of T4-LDS-0245-2 Rev. 1. This includes full screening for vibration, thermal shock, and hermeticity per Table I of the specification, making it suitable for high-reliability aerospace and defense applications where failure is not an option.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for JANTX1N4109D-1?
The maximum reverse leakage current (IR) for JANTX1N4109D-1 is 0.05 µA at VR = 12.0 V, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of T4-LDS-0245-2 Rev. 1. This ultra-low leakage ensures minimal power loss in battery-backed monitoring circuits and preserves accuracy in high-impedance sensing nodes where even nanoamp-level currents affect measurement integrity.
Does JANTX1N4109D-1 have low noise performance?
Yes, JANTX1N4109D-1 delivers 40 µV/√Hz noise density at its 15 V Zener voltage, consistent with the family's specification for devices ≥6.8 V. This value is measured using a 1 kHz–3 kHz bandpass filter at 25°C ambient, as detailed in Figure 1 and the NOTES section on page 4 of T4-LDS-0245-2 Rev. 1 - critical for precision analog references in data converters and sensor interfaces.
What package type does JANTX1N4109D-1 use?
JANTX1N4109D-1 uses the DO-35 (DO-204AH) hermetically sealed axial-leaded glass package, as confirmed in the MECHANICAL and PACKAGING section on page 2 of T4-LDS-0245-2 Rev. 1. The package features tin-lead or RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating, cathode band marking, and is rated for soldering at 260°C for 10 seconds per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026.
