Product details
Overview
JANTX1N4124-1/TR from Microsemi is a 500 mW, 43.0 V ±5% metallurgically bonded glass Zener diode in DO-35 (DO-204AH) axial-leaded package, qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/435 JANTX level for high-reliability applications. It delivers stable voltage regulation at 250 mA test current with 250 Ω dynamic impedance, <0.01 µA reverse leakage at 32.7 V, and +0.095 %/°C temperature coefficient.
For engineers reviewing the JANTX1N4124-1/TR datasheet, JANTX1N4124-1/TR pinout, JANTX1N4124-1/TR application, or JANTX1N4124-1/TR equivalent, this page provides verified military-grade Zener specifications, thermal derating behavior, noise density (≤1 µV/√Hz), and direct alternatives for precision reference and power supply regulation in aerospace, defense, and industrial control systems.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference in reverse-biased breakdown mode, with Zener voltage defined at IZT = 250 mA and characterized over -65 °C to +175 °C junction temperature range. Its metallurgical bond construction ensures low noise density and radiation hardness per Microsemi MicroNote 050.
The JANTX1N4124-1/TR exhibits a positive temperature coefficient (+0.095 %/°C), requiring thermal compensation in high-stability references. Its 250 Ω dynamic impedance at 250 mA and ≤0.01 µA IR at VR = 32.7 V support tight regulation under varying load and line conditions in regulated DC supplies and overvoltage protection circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage VZ | 43.0 V ±5% at IZT = 250 mA - defines nominal regulation point with predictable deviation across temperature and current. |
| Power Dissipation PM(AV) | 500 mW at TC = 25 °C - supports continuous operation up to 250 mA at 43 V before thermal derating begins at 50 °C. |
| Dynamic Impedance ZZT | 250 Ω at IZT = 250 mA - determines output voltage variation under load transients; lower values improve regulation accuracy. |
| Reverse Leakage IR | ≤0.01 µA at VR = 32.7 V - ensures minimal parasitic current in high-impedance bias networks and precision references. |
| Temperature Coefficient αVZ | +0.095 %/°C - quantifies voltage drift with ambient change; critical for stability in unregulated thermal environments. |
| Noise Density ND | ≤1 µV/√Hz - enables use in low-noise analog references where broadband voltage noise must be minimized. |
| Junction Temperature Range | -65 °C to +175 °C - validated for extended operation in harsh environments including space and avionics. |
Pinout & Package
DO-35 (DO-204AH) hermetically sealed axial-leaded glass package with cathode indicated by band; operated with banded end positive for Zener regulation. Weight ≈ 0.2 g; lead length 25.4–38.1 mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Reference ground node | Connected to system ground or lowest potential; forms return path for Zener current. |
| Cathode | Regulated output node | Banded end; supplies stable 43 V reference when reverse-biased; must be held at higher potential than anode. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4124US | Same 43 V nominal Zener, but in surface-mount DO-213AA package; no axial leads; RoHS-compliant only. | Used where board space is constrained and reflow soldering is required; unsuitable for through-hole prototyping or manual repair. | Select 1N4124US when migrating to SMT assembly and full RoHS compliance is mandatory; verify thermal pad layout matches RθJL = 250 °C/W. |
| JANTXV1N4124-1 | Identical electrical specs but qualified to JANTXV level (enhanced screening, tighter parametric limits, 100% life test). | Required for Class H/V avionics programs demanding zero infant mortality and extended burn-in validation. | Choose JANTXV1N4124-1 when program spec mandates JANTXV screening; expect longer lead times and higher unit cost. |
Compared with JANTX1N4124-1/TR, the 1N4124US offers SMT compatibility at the expense of axial mounting flexibility, while JANTXV1N4124-1 adds screening rigor without altering regulation performance-making the TR-suffixed version optimal for cost-sensitive JANTX-tier programs with standard leaded assembly.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for JANTX1N4124-1/TR?
The JANTX1N4124-1/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 43.0 V with a standard tolerance of ±5%, as defined in the JEDEC-registered electrical characteristics table. This tolerance applies at IZT = 250 mA and 25 °C ambient, and remains valid across the full qualified temperature range when used within its derated power envelope.
Is JANTX1N4124-1/TR RoHS compliant?
No, JANTX1N4124-1/TR is not RoHS compliant. The "e3" RoHS suffix is only available on commercial-grade versions (e.g., 1N4124-1e3); military-qualified parts like JANTX1N4124-1/TR retain tin-lead plating per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026 to ensure solderability and reliability under thermal cycling stress.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for JANTX1N4124-1/TR?
The maximum reverse leakage current (IR) for JANTX1N4124-1/TR is 0.01 µA measured at VR = 32.7 V (75% of VZ). This ultra-low leakage supports high-impedance bias networks and minimizes error in precision reference divider configurations.
How does thermal derating apply to JANTX1N4124-1/TR?
JANTX1N4124-1/TR linearly derates from 500 mW starting at TL = 50 °C, reaching zero dissipation at 175 °C. On a typical FR4 board, derating begins at 25 °C ambient, dropping 6.25 mW/°C above that point. Full power is usable only below 50 °C lead temperature.
Can JANTX1N4124-1/TR be used in surface-mount designs?
No-JANTX1N4124-1/TR uses the axial-leaded DO-35 (DO-204AH) package and is not compatible with SMT assembly. For surface-mount equivalents, consider the 1N4124US in DO-213AA package, which shares identical Zener voltage and regulation specs but requires reflow-compatible layout and RoHS-compliant processes.
