Product details
Overview
JANTX1N4112D-1 from Microsemi is a 500 mW, 18.0 V ±1% tolerance metallurgically bonded glass Zener diode in DO-35 (DO-204AH) axial-leaded package, qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/435 JANTX level for high-reliability voltage regulation in aerospace and defense systems.
For engineers reviewing the JANTX1N4112D-1 datasheet, JANTX1N4112D-1 pinout, JANTX1N4112D-1 application, or JANTX1N4112D-1 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±1%), dynamic impedance (100 Ω @ 250 mA), noise density (1 µV/√Hz), temperature coefficient (+0.090 %/°C), and MIL-qualified thermal derating behavior.
Technical Context
This device operates as a precision shunt voltage regulator with a nominal Zener voltage of 18.0 V at 250 mA test current, exhibiting low dynamic impedance (100 Ω) and minimal capacitance (typ. <2 pF). Its metallurgical bond construction ensures stable junction characteristics under thermal cycling and radiation exposure.
The JANTX1N4112D-1 delivers regulated output across wide current ranges (IZK to IZM = 13.7 mA to 40 mA) and temperature extremes (–65 °C to +175 °C), with linear power derating from 500 mW at 25 °C to zero at 175 °C per MIL-PRF-19500/435 requirements.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage VZ | 18.0 V ±1% @ 250 mA - enables precise reference generation in analog circuits requiring tight voltage stability. |
| Power Dissipation | 500 mW @ TL = 25 °C - supports continuous regulation in compact, unheatsinked designs with linear derating above 50 °C. |
| Dynamic Impedance ZZT | 100 Ω @ 250 mA - ensures minimal output voltage variation under load transients in feedback and reference applications. |
| Noise Density | 1 µV/√Hz @ 250 mA - critical for low-noise analog references in instrumentation and precision ADC/DAC biasing. |
| Temp. Coefficient αVZ | +0.090 %/°C - provides predictable, monotonic drift over temperature for compensated reference designs. |
| Reverse Leakage IR | 0.05 µA @ 14.4 V - guarantees negligible current draw in standby or high-impedance sensing nodes. |
| Junction Temp. Range | –65 °C to +175 °C - meets extended environmental requirements for avionics, downhole, and space-grade electronics. |
Pinout & Package
DO-35 (DO-204AH) hermetically sealed axial-leaded glass package with cathode indicated by band; leads are tin-lead plated and solderable per MIL-STD-750 method 2026.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal / Zener cathode reference ground | Connected to circuit common; reverse-biased operation requires cathode at higher potential. |
| Cathode | Zener regulation terminal / voltage reference node | Banded end; supplies stable 18.0 V reference when reverse-biased at IZ ≥ 13.7 mA. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4112US-1 | Same electrical specs but in DO-213AA surface-mount package; no axial leads. | Requires PCB rework for SMT assembly; unsuitable for through-hole prototyping or wire-wrap. | Select when board space constraints mandate SMT or automated placement is required. |
| JANTXV1N4112D-1 | Identical electrical specs with enhanced screening (JANTXV level per MIL-PRF-19500/435); lower failure-in-time (FIT) rate. | Required for mission-critical subsystems where burn-in, life test, and lot traceability exceed JANTX requirements. | Select when system-level reliability targets demand extended screening beyond JANTX. |
Compared with JANTX1N4112D-1, the JANTXV variant adds rigorous life testing and tighter parametric limits for ultra-high-reliability deployments, while the 1N4112US-1 offers identical regulation performance in a footprint-optimized SMT form factor-neither is pin-compatible due to differing packages.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of JANTX1N4112D-1?
JANTX1N4112D-1 has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±1%, denoted by the "D" suffix in its part number. This is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of Microsemi's T4-LDS-0245-2 datasheet, where VZ = 18.0 V @ IZT = 250 mA with ±1% limit. The tighter tolerance reduces calibration burden in precision reference circuits compared to standard 5% variants.
Is JANTX1N4112D-1 RoHS compliant?
No, JANTX1N4112D-1 is not RoHS compliant. Per the datasheet, RoHS-compliant versions (suffix "e3") are available only for commercial-grade parts-not for JAN, JANTX, JANTXV, or JANS reliability levels. JANTX1N4112D-1 retains traditional tin-lead plating to meet MIL-STD-750 solderability requirements and ensure compatibility with legacy aerospace assembly processes.
What is the maximum Zener current for JANTX1N4112D-1?
The maximum Zener current (IZM) for JANTX1N4112D-1 is 40 mA, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. This value corresponds to the current at which the device dissipates its rated 500 mW at VZ = 18.0 V (P = V × I → 18 V × 40 mA = 720 mW, but derating applies; actual IZM reflects thermal limits at TL = 25 °C with linear derating above 50 °C).
Does JANTX1N4112D-1 have radiation hardness?
Yes, JANTX1N4112D-1 is inherently radiation hard, as documented in Microsemi MicroNote 050. Its metallurgically bonded junction and hermetic glass package provide resistance to total ionizing dose (TID) effects, making it suitable for space and nuclear applications where single-event effects and cumulative dose tolerance are critical design requirements.
What is the thermal resistance junction-to-lead for JANTX1N4112D-1?
The thermal resistance junction-to-lead (RθJL) for JANTX1N4112D-1 is 250 °C/W, measured with 3/8 inch (10 mm) lead length from the body. This value is listed in the Maximum Ratings table on page 1 of the datasheet and informs thermal design when leads are used as heat paths-critical for sustained operation near maximum power dissipation.
