Product details
Overview
JANTX1N4127C-1/TR from Microsemi is a 56 V, ±2% 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 JANTX1N4127C-1/TR datasheet, JANTX1N4127C-1/TR pinout, JANTX1N4127C-1/TR application, or JANTX1N4127C-1/TR equivalent, key selection factors include its 56 V nominal Zener voltage at 250 mA test current, 300 Ω maximum dynamic impedance, 0.01 µA maximum reverse leakage at 42.6 V, and -65 °C to +175 °C operating junction temperature range.
Technical Context
This device operates as a precision shunt voltage regulator with a specified Zener voltage of 56 V at IZT = 250 mA, exhibiting a temperature coefficient of +0.100 %/°C and noise density ≤1 µV/√Hz. Its metallurgical bond construction ensures stable breakdown characteristics under thermal cycling and radiation exposure.
The DO-35 axial-leaded glass package provides hermetic sealing and supports lead temperature derating from 500 mW at 25 °C to zero at 175 °C, with RθJL = 250 °C/W when mounted with 3/8″ lead length. Polarity is marked by cathode band; operation requires cathode-positive biasing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Nominal Zener Voltage | 56 V at 250 mA test current - defines regulated output voltage under standard bias condition |
| Zener Tolerance | ±2% - tighter than standard 5% grade, enabling higher accuracy reference designs |
| Power Dissipation | 500 mW at 25 °C - sets maximum continuous DC power handling before thermal derating applies |
| Dynamic Impedance | ≤300 Ω at 250 mA - determines regulation stiffness and output voltage variation under load changes |
| Reverse Leakage Current | ≤0.01 µA at 42.6 V - ensures minimal error current in high-impedance reference circuits |
| Temperature Coefficient | +0.100 %/°C - quantifies Zener voltage drift per degree Celsius above 25 °C |
| Noise Density | ≤1 µV/√Hz - critical for low-noise analog references and precision instrumentation |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| JANS1N4127C-1 | Same electrical specs but qualified to JANS (highest MIL-PRF-19500 reliability level); higher screening cost and longer lead time | Required for space-grade or mission-critical nuclear systems where burn-in and lot acceptance testing are mandated | Select JANS1N4127C-1 only when JANS-level screening documentation and traceability are contractually required |
| 1N4127C-1TR | Commercial-grade version; identical Zener parameters but no MIL qualification; RoHS-compliant plating available | Suitable for industrial test equipment or non-safety-critical avionics where cost and availability outweigh military spec needs | Choose 1N4127C-1TR for prototyping or volume production where MIL-PRF-19500 compliance is not mandated |
Compared with JANTX1N4127C-1/TR, JANS1N4127C-1 adds full lot traceability and radiation assurance for spaceflight, while 1N4127C-1TR reduces cost and lead time for commercial-grade designs without compromising Zener performance.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of JANTX1N4127C-1/TR?
JANTX1N4127C-1/TR has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±2%, denoted by the "C" suffix in its part number per Microsemi's nomenclature. This tighter tolerance enables higher accuracy in voltage reference circuits compared to standard ±5% grades, and is verified per MIL-PRF-19500/435 screening requirements for the JANTX reliability level.
Does JANTX1N4127C-1/TR require derating at elevated temperatures?
Yes, JANTX1N4127C-1/TR must be derated linearly from 500 mW starting at 25 °C ambient temperature, reaching zero dissipation at 175 °C. Derating is based on thermal resistance junction-to-ambient (300 °C/W) and junction-to-lead (250 °C/W), and applies whether mounted on FR4 PCB or with specified lead length-critical for sustained operation in avionics enclosures.
What does the "TR" suffix indicate in JANTX1N4127C-1/TR?
The "TR" suffix in JANTX1N4127C-1/TR indicates tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-296 standard, enabling automated pick-and-place assembly. This format is standard for volume production and does not affect electrical or reliability specifications; the underlying JANTX1N4127C-1 die and DO-35 package remain unchanged.
Is JANTX1N4127C-1/TR RoHS compliant?
No, JANTX1N4127C-1/TR is not RoHS compliant. Per Microsemi documentation, RoHS-compliant versions (e.g., with "e3" suffix) are available only for commercial-grade parts-not for JAN, JANTX, JANTXV, or JANS qualified devices like JANTX1N4127C-1/TR, which retain traditional tin-lead plating to meet MIL-STD-750 solderability requirements.
How is polarity marked on JANTX1N4127C-1/TR?
JANTX1N4127C-1/TR uses a cathode band to indicate polarity: the banded end is the cathode and must be held positive relative to the anode for Zener regulation. This marking follows JEDEC DO-35 standards and is visible on the glass body; incorrect orientation results in forward conduction rather than voltage regulation.
