Product details
Overview
JANTX1N4128C-1/TR from Microsemi is a 60 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 power supplies and precision reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the JANTX1N4128C-1/TR datasheet, JANTX1N4128C-1/TR pinout, JANTX1N4128C-1/TR application, or JANTX1N4128C-1/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±2%), noise density (≤1 µV/√Hz), dynamic impedance (400 Ω max), temperature coefficient (+0.100 %/°C), and MIL-qualified reliability for harsh-environment analog references.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference with cathode-banded polarity, requiring reverse-bias operation where the banded end is positive relative to the anode. It delivers stable 60 V regulation at IZT = 250 mA with low noise density and minimal capacitance across its operating range.
Its metallurgical bond construction ensures robust thermal performance (RθJL = 250 °C/W) and radiation hardness per Microsemi MicroNote 050, supporting use in space-grade analog signal conditioning and voltage-clamping applications where long-term parametric stability is critical.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4128US-1 | Same 60 V, 2% Zener voltage but in DO-213AA surface-mount package | Requires PCB rework for SMT assembly; lacks axial-lead mechanical mounting flexibility | Select when board space is constrained and automated placement is required |
| JAN1N4128C-1 | Identical electrical specs but qualified only to JAN level (lower screening than JANTX) | Not approved for mission-critical avionics; limited to non-flight hardware or ground test equipment | Select when full JANTX reliability is not mandated and cost reduction is prioritized |
Compared with JANTX1N4128C-1/TR, the 1N4128US-1 offers identical regulation performance in a smaller footprint but sacrifices axial-mount versatility, while the JAN1N4128C-1 reduces qualification rigor and lifecycle assurance-making the JANTX variant the only choice for flight-certified systems demanding full MIL-PRF-19500/435 compliance.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for JANTX1N4128C-1/TR?
JANTX1N4128C-1/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 60.0 V with a ±2% tolerance, meaning the actual regulation voltage falls between 58.8 V and 61.2 V at 250 mA test current and 25 °C ambient temperature. This tighter tolerance is achieved through post-manufacture screening and is specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the T4-LDS-0245-2 datasheet.
Is JANTX1N4128C-1/TR suitable for space applications?
Yes, JANTX1N4128C-1/TR is qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/435 JANTX level and features inherent radiation hardness per Microsemi MicroNote 050. Its metallurgically bonded DO-35 construction and hermetic glass seal make it suitable for low-Earth orbit missions where total ionizing dose (TID) resistance and parametric stability under thermal cycling are required.
What is the maximum Zener current rating for JANTX1N4128C-1/TR?
The maximum Zener current IZM for JANTX1N4128C-1/TR is 45.6 mA at 25 °C ambient, derived from its 500 mW power rating and 60 V Zener voltage. This value is listed in the Electrical Characteristics table and assumes proper thermal management via lead conduction (RθJL = 250 °C/W).
Does JANTX1N4128C-1/TR have low noise performance?
Yes, JANTX1N4128C-1/TR exhibits ≤1 µV/√Hz noise density at 250 mA test current, as confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table. This low noise enables use in precision analog circuits such as ADC references and low-drift op-amp bias networks where signal integrity is critical.
What does the "TR" suffix indicate in JANTX1N4128C-1/TR?
The "TR" suffix in JANTX1N4128C-1/TR indicates tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-296 standard, enabling automated pick-and-place assembly. This packaging option is documented in the Mechanical and Packaging section of the T4-LDS-0245-2 datasheet and does not affect electrical or reliability specifications of the JANTX1N4128C-1/TR device itself.
