Product details
Overview
JANTX1N4118D-1/TR from Microsemi is a 27.0 V, 1% tolerance, 500 mW metallurgically bonded glass Zener diode in DO-35 (DO-204AH) axial-leaded package, qualified to JANTX level per MIL-PRF-19500/435 for high-reliability voltage regulation in aerospace and defense power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the JANTX1N4118D-1/TR datasheet, JANTX1N4118D-1/TR pinout, JANTX1N4118D-1/TR application, or JANTX1N4118D-1/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±1%), dynamic impedance (150 Ω @ 250 mA), noise density (1 µV/√Hz), temperature coefficient (+0.090 %/°C), and military qualification level.
Technical Context
This device operates as a precision shunt voltage regulator with a nominal Zener voltage of 27.0 V at 250 mA test current (IZT), exhibiting low dynamic impedance (150 Ω) and minimal noise density (1 µV/√Hz). Its metallurgical bond construction ensures stable breakdown characteristics across temperature extremes.
The JANTX1N4118D-1/TR is rated for junction temperatures from –65 °C to +175 °C, with thermal resistance junction-to-lead of 250 °C/W at 10 mm lead length, enabling reliable operation in conduction-cooled military chassis environments without forced airflow.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 27.0 V ±1% at 250 mA - enables precise reference generation for analog monitoring circuits requiring tight regulation tolerance. |
| Power Dissipation | 500 mW at 25 °C - supports stable DC biasing in low-power analog subsystems without external heatsinking. |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 150 Ω @ IZT - ensures minimal output voltage variation under load transients in feedback loops. |
| Noise Density (ND) | 1 µV/√Hz - critical for low-noise voltage references in precision instrumentation and ADC reference buffers. |
| Temp. Coefficient (αVZ) | +0.090 %/°C - provides predictable, monotonic drift over –65 to +175 °C for mission-critical thermal compensation. |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤0.01 µA @ 20.5 V - guarantees negligible standby current in high-impedance sensing nodes. |
| Max Zener Current (IZM) | 40 mA - defines absolute safe operating limit before thermal runaway under sustained overload. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4118US-1 | Same 27.0 V, 1% spec but in DO-213AA surface-mount package; no axial leads. | Requires PCB rework for SMT assembly; unsuitable for through-hole prototyping or legacy chassis wiring. | Select when board space is constrained and automated placement is available. |
| JANS1N4118D-1 | Identical electrical specs but qualified to JANS (highest reliability level); higher screening cost and longer lead time. | Required only for manned spacecraft or strategic weapon systems where zero defect probability is mandated. | Select only if JANS-level traceability and extended burn-in are contractually required. |
Compared with JANTX1N4118D-1/TR, the 1N4118US-1 offers identical regulation performance in a space-saving SMT form factor, while JANS1N4118D-1 adds full radiation and lot-level screening for ultra-high-assurance missions-neither is pin-compatible due to differing packages.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of JANTX1N4118D-1/TR?
JANTX1N4118D-1/TR has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±1%, denoted by the "D" suffix in its nomenclature. This is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of T4-LDS-0245-2 Rev. 1, where JANTX1N4118D-1/TR corresponds to the 1N4118-1 row with D = 1% tolerance. The device delivers 27.0 V ±0.27 V at 250 mA test current under standard conditions.
Is JANTX1N4118D-1/TR RoHS compliant?
No, JANTX1N4118D-1/TR is not RoHS compliant. Per the nomenclature guide on page 2 of T4-LDS-0245-2 Rev. 1, the "e3" suffix indicates RoHS compliance, and it is explicitly stated that RoHS versions are available only for commercial-grade parts-not for JAN, JANTX, JANTXV, or JANS levels. JANTX1N4118D-1/TR carries no e3 suffix and uses tin-lead plating per MIL-STD-750.
What is the maximum Zener current rating for JANTX1N4118D-1/TR?
The maximum Zener current (IZM) for JANTX1N4118D-1/TR is 40 mA, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of T4-LDS-0245-2 Rev. 1. This value represents the absolute maximum continuous dc current the device can sustain without exceeding its 500 mW power limit at 25 °C ambient, assuming proper thermal management via lead conduction.
Does JANTX1N4118D-1/TR have radiation hardness certification?
Yes, JANTX1N4118D-1/TR is inherently radiation hard, as documented in Microsemi MicroNote 050 referenced in the Applications/Benefits section of T4-LDS-0245-2 Rev. 1. This characteristic stems from its metallurgically bonded glass construction and is applicable across the entire 1N4099–1N4135 family, including JANTX1N4118D-1/TR, making it suitable for low-earth orbit satellite applications.
What does the "TR" suffix mean in JANTX1N4118D-1/TR?
The "TR" suffix in JANTX1N4118D-1/TR indicates tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-296 standard, as stated in the Mechanical and Packaging section on page 2 of T4-LDS-0245-2 Rev. 1. This format supports automated pick-and-place assembly and is distinct from bulk or ammo-pack options; quantity requirements must be confirmed with the factory.
