Product details
Overview
JANTX1N4614-1 from Microsemi is a 500 mW, 1.8 V Zener voltage regulator diode in DO-35 glass axial-leaded package, qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/435 JANTX level, with ±5% voltage tolerance, 1200 Ω dynamic impedance at 250 mA test current, and -0.075 %/°C temperature coefficient - used for precision low-voltage reference and regulation in military power supply monitoring circuits.
For engineers reviewing the JANTX1N4614-1 datasheet, JANTX1N4614-1 pinout, JANTX1N4614-1 application, or JANTX1N4614-1 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy at low current (IZT = 250 mA), thermal resistance (RθJL = 250 °C/W), noise density (1 µV/√Hz), junction temperature range (-65 to +175 °C), and MIL-qualified reliability grading.
Technical Context
This device operates as a reverse-biased Zener regulator with metallurgically bonded construction for stable breakdown characteristics. It delivers 1.8 V regulation at IZT = 250 mA, exhibits 1200 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT) under that condition, and maintains low noise density (1 µV/√Hz) due to its low-voltage Zener structure.
Its -0.075 %/°C temperature coefficient ensures predictable drift over temperature, and its DO-35 hermetic glass package supports operation from -65 °C to +175 °C junction temperature while meeting MIL-PRF-19500/435 JANTX reliability requirements.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage VZ | 1.8 V at IZT = 250 mA - defines precise low-voltage reference point for biasing or feedback networks. |
| Zener Impedance ZZT | 1200 Ω - limits regulation error under load current variation; higher than mid-voltage Zeners but typical for sub-2V devices. |
| Power Dissipation | 500 mW at TL = 25 °C - sets maximum continuous DC power handling before thermal derating begins at 50 °C. |
| Noise Density | 1 µV/√Hz - enables use in low-noise analog references where broadband voltage stability is critical. |
| Temp Coefficient αVZ | -0.075 %/°C - quantifies predictable negative drift; allows accurate compensation in wide-temperature military systems. |
| Reverse Leakage IR | 3.5 µA at VR = 1.0 V - confirms tight low-voltage blocking behavior below knee, supporting clean turn-on. |
| Junction Temp Range | -65 to +175 °C - enables deployment in aerospace, downhole, and high-reliability embedded control environments. |
Pinout & Package
DO-35 (DO-204AH) axial-leaded glass package with cathode indicated by band; operated with banded end positive for Zener regulation. Hermetically sealed, tin-lead plated leads solderable per MIL-STD-750 method 2026.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Reference Ground Node | Connected to system ground or lowest potential node; forms return path for Zener current. |
| Cathode | Regulated Output Terminal | Banded end supplies stabilized 1.8 V when reverse-biased; must be held at higher potential than anode. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4614US | Same 1.8 V Zener voltage and DO-35 package, but commercial-grade (non-MIL) with RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating. | Lacks JANTX qualification; not suitable for defense/aerospace BOMs requiring MIL-PRF-19500 compliance. | Select only for cost-sensitive industrial prototypes where MIL screening is unnecessary. |
| JAN1N4614-1 | Identical electrical specs and DO-35 package, but qualified only to JAN level (less stringent screening than JANTX). | Lower reliability assurance; may not meet mission-critical vibration, burn-in, or lot acceptance test requirements. | Acceptable for non-flight subsystems where full JANTX screening adds unnecessary cost. |
Compared with 1N4614US and JAN1N4614-1, JANTX1N4614-1 provides the highest reliability assurance through extended environmental stress screening and traceable lot documentation - essential for avionics, missile guidance, and space-qualified electronics where failure modes carry severe consequences.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of JANTX1N4614-1?
JANTX1N4614-1 has a nominal Zener voltage of 1.8 V with a standard tolerance of ±5%, as defined in the JEDEC-registered specification and confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of T4-LDS-0245-2. This tolerance applies at IZT = 250 mA and TA = 25 °C, and is consistent across all JANTX-level variants of the 1N4614-1 family.
Is JANTX1N4614-1 RoHS compliant?
No, JANTX1N4614-1 is not RoHS compliant. Per the nomenclature table on page 2 of T4-LDS-0245-2, RoHS compliance (suffix "e3") is available only on commercial-grade versions (e.g., 1N4614-1e3), not on MIL-qualified JANTX-level parts. JANTX1N4614-1 uses traditional tin-lead plating to meet MIL-STD-750 solderability requirements.
What is the maximum Zener current IZM for JANTX1N4614-1?
The maximum Zener current IZM for JANTX1N4614-1 is 120.0 mA, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of T4-LDS-0245-2. This value corresponds to the rated 500 mW power dissipation at 25 °C lead temperature, and assumes linear derating above 50 °C per Figure 2.
Does JANTX1N4614-1 have a specified noise density?
Yes, JANTX1N4614-1 has a maximum noise density of 1 µV/√Hz, as stated in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of T4-LDS-0245-2. This value is measured at IZT = 250 mA and 25 °C ambient using a 1 kHz–3 kHz bandpass filter, and reflects its suitability for low-noise analog reference applications.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to lead (RθJL) for JANTX1N4614-1?
The thermal resistance from junction to lead (RθJL) for JANTX1N4614-1 is 250 °C/W, as specified in the Maximum Ratings table on page 1 of T4-LDS-0245-2. This value is measured with 3/8 inch (10 mm) lead length from the body and is critical for calculating junction temperature rise under actual operating conditions.
