For engineers reviewing the JANTX1N4621D-1/TR datasheet, JANTX1N4621D-1/TR pinout, JANTX1N4621D-1/TR application, or JANTX1N4621D-1/TR equivalent, this part supports precision low-voltage reference design, temperature-stable biasing, and MIL-PRF-19500/435-compliant overvoltage protection where 1% Zener tolerance and −0.065 %/°C tempco are critical.
Technical Context
This device operates as a reverse-biased voltage regulator with a nominal Zener voltage of 3.6 V at 250 mA test current, dynamic impedance of 1700 Ω at IZT, and maximum noise density of 1 µV/√Hz - optimized for low-noise analog references below 4 V.
It features a metallurgical bond construction, hermetically sealed glass DO-35 package, and is qualified to JANTX reliability level per MIL-PRF-19500/435, supporting operation from −65 °C to +175 °C with thermal resistance junction-to-lead of 250 °C/W at 10 mm lead length.
Key Specifications

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of JANTX1N4621D-1/TR?
JANTX1N4621D-1/TR has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±1%, indicated by the "D" suffix in its part number. This tolerance applies to its nominal 3.6 V Zener voltage at 250 mA test current and is verified per MIL-PRF-19500/435 screening requirements for JANTX-level devices.
Is JANTX1N4621D-1/TR RoHS compliant?
No, JANTX1N4621D-1/TR is not RoHS compliant. The "e3" RoHS designation is only available on commercial-grade versions of this family; JANTX-level parts retain tin-lead plating per MIL-STD-750 for proven solderability and reliability in high-reliability applications.
What is the maximum Zener current IZM for JANTX1N4621D-1/TR?
The maximum Zener current IZM for JANTX1N4621D-1/TR is 83.0 mA, calculated from its 500 mW power rating and 3.6 V Zener voltage (IZM = PM(AV)/VZ). This value assumes operation at 25 °C with proper thermal management per the derating curve in the datasheet.
How does the temperature coefficient of JANTX1N4621D-1/TR affect its regulation stability?
JANTX1N4621D-1/TR has a temperature coefficient αVZ of −0.065 %/°C, meaning its Zener voltage decreases by approximately 2.34 mV per °C rise. This predictable negative drift allows designers to compensate adjacent circuitry or select complementary components for improved overall thermal stability.
What package type is used for JANTX1N4621D-1/TR?
JANTX1N4621D-1/TR uses the DO-35 (also designated DO-204AH) axial-leaded, hermetically sealed glass package. Its dimensions conform to JEDEC standards, with a body diameter of 1.42–2.29 mm and overall length of 3.56–5.08 mm, and features a cathode band for polarity identification.
