Product details
Overview
JANTX1N4123C-1 from Microsemi is a 500 mW, 39.0 V ±2% tolerance metallurgically bonded glass Zener diode in DO-35 (DO-204AH) package, qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/435 JANTX level for high-reliability applications. It delivers stable voltage regulation at 250 mA test current with 200 Ω dynamic impedance, low noise density (1 µV/√Hz), and operates across –65 °C to +175 °C junction temperature range.
For engineers reviewing the JANTX1N4123C-1 datasheet, JANTX1N4123C-1 pinout, JANTX1N4123C-1 application, or JANTX1N4123C-1 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±2%), thermal resistance (250 °C/W junction-to-lead), maximum reverse leakage (0.01 µA @ 31.2 V), radiation hardness per MicroNote 050, and RoHS compliance status (not applicable for JANTX grade).
Technical Context
This device functions as a precision shunt voltage regulator in analog power supply feedback paths and reference circuits. Its internal metallurgical bond ensures mechanical stability under thermal cycling and shock, while its hermetically sealed DO-35 glass package maintains long-term parameter consistency in harsh environments.
The JANTX1N4123C-1 exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of +0.095 %/°C, enabling predictable drift compensation in multi-diode references. Its low capacitance (typical <2 pF at 0 V) and minimal noise density support use in low-phase-noise oscillator biasing and precision instrumentation front ends.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4123US-1 | Same electrical specs but in surface-mount DO-213AA package; no axial leads | Used where board space is constrained and reflow assembly is required | Select when automated SMT placement is mandatory and thermal mass constraints allow lower peak power handling |
| JAN1N4123C-1 | Identical electrical and mechanical specs but qualified only to JAN level (less rigorous screening than JANTX) | Suitable for cost-sensitive defense subsystems where full JANTX screening is not mandated | Choose when procurement specifications permit JAN-level qualification and budget constraints apply |
Compared with JANTX1N4123C-1, the 1N4123US-1 enables PCB area reduction and reflow compatibility but sacrifices lead-forming flexibility and thermal dissipation via lead conduction; the JAN1N4123C-1 offers identical performance at lower cost but lacks JANTX-level burn-in and life-test validation.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for JANTX1N4123C-1?
The JANTX1N4123C-1 has a nominal Zener voltage of 39.0 V with a tolerance of ±2%, as indicated by the "C" suffix in the part number per Microsemi's nomenclature. This tolerance is verified at 250 mA test current and 25 °C ambient, and applies across the full qualified temperature range when used within derated power limits.
Is JANTX1N4123C-1 RoHS compliant?
No, JANTX1N4123C-1 is not RoHS compliant. Per Microsemi documentation, RoHS-compliant versions (e.g., with "e3" suffix) are available only for commercial-grade parts; JANTX-level devices retain tin-lead plating to meet MIL-STD-750 solderability requirements and are exempt from RoHS restrictions under defense procurement guidelines.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for JANTX1N4123C-1?
The maximum reverse leakage current for JANTX1N4123C-1 is 0.01 µA at 31.2 V (80% of VZ), as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the T4-LDS-0245-2 datasheet. This ultra-low leakage supports high-impedance reference designs where error current must remain below femtoamp-level thresholds.
Can JANTX1N4123C-1 be used in surface-mount assemblies?
No, JANTX1N4123C-1 uses an axial-leaded DO-35 (DO-204AH) package and is not suitable for standard surface-mount reflow. For SMT-compatible equivalents, consider the 1N4123US-1 in DO-213AA package - it shares identical electrical specs but requires different board layout and assembly processes.
What is the thermal resistance junction-to-lead for JANTX1N4123C-1?
The thermal resistance junction-to-lead (RθJL) for JANTX1N4123C-1 is 250 °C/W when measured with 3/8 inch (10 mm) lead length from the body, per the Maximum Ratings table. This value enables accurate thermal modeling when heatsinking is implemented via lead conduction in high-reliability chassis-mounted configurations.
