Product details
Overview
JANTX1N4622C-1 from Microsemi is a 500 mW, 3.9 V ±2% metallurgically bonded glass Zener diode in DO-35 package, qualified to JANTX level per MIL-PRF-19500/435. It delivers stable voltage regulation at 250 mA test current with 1650 Ω dynamic impedance and operates across –65 °C to +175 °C junction temperature.
For engineers reviewing the JANTX1N4622C-1 datasheet, JANTX1N4622C-1 pinout, JANTX1N4622C-1 application, or JANTX1N4622C-1 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±2%), noise density (1 µV/√Hz), thermal resistance (250 °C/W junction-to-lead), and military-grade reliability qualification.
Technical Context
This device functions as a precision shunt voltage regulator in high-reliability analog circuits. Its metallurgical bond construction ensures low noise (1 µV/√Hz at 3.9 V), minimal capacitance, and radiation hardness per MicroNote 050 - critical for aerospace and defense power conditioning.
It operates with cathode-banded polarity and requires reverse-bias configuration. The DO-35 axial-leaded package supports through-hole mounting with tin-lead or RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating, solderable per MIL-STD-750 method 2026.

|---|---|
Use Scenario: Regulating reference voltage for analog front-end circuitry monitoring aircraft bus voltage and temperature sensors. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Shunt voltage reference providing stable 3.9 V for op-amp comparators and ADC input scaling. Use Value: Maintains measurement accuracy across –55 °C to +125 °C ambient with <0.1% drift due to low tempco and hermetic sealing. | Use Scenario: Supplying low-noise bias to radiation-hardened CMOS image sensors in LEO satellites. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-noise Zener reference replacing higher-drift alternatives in sensor analog signal chains. Use Value: 1 µV/√Hz noise density prevents SNR degradation in sub-10-bit imaging systems operating in vacuum. |
| Downhole Oilfield Instrumentation | Tactical Radio RF Stage Biasing |
Use Scenario: Stabilizing supply rails for pressure transducers and telemetry modems deployed at 175 °C wellbore temperatures. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-temperature shunt regulator maintaining reference integrity where active regulators fail. Use Value: Full functionality up to +175 °C junction temperature eliminates need for external thermal derating or heatsinking. | Use Scenario: Providing regulated bias to GaAs FET driver stages in portable HF/VHF transceivers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-capacitance Zener clamp protecting RF amplifier inputs during transient events. Use Value: Minimal capacitance (<2 pF typical) avoids detuning of matching networks at frequencies up to 500 MHz. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4622US-1 | Same electrical specs but in surface-mount DO-213AA package; no axial leads. | Requires SMT reflow process; unsuitable for through-hole prototyping or repair. | Select when board space is constrained and automated assembly is used. |
| JANTXV1N4622C-1 | Identical electrical and mechanical specs, but qualified to JANTXV level with enhanced screening and lot traceability. | Required for mission-critical flight hardware where extended burn-in and radiation testing apply. | Select when program mandates JANTXV-level assurance beyond JANTX requirements. |
Compared with JANTX1N4622C-1, the JANTXV variant adds screening rigor without altering performance, while the 1N4622US-1 trades axial-mount flexibility for SMT compatibility - neither is pin-compatible due to differing packages.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for JANTX1N4622C-1?
JANTX1N4622C-1 has a nominal Zener voltage of 3.9 V with a tolerance of ±2%, as indicated by the "C" suffix in the part number per Microsemi's nomenclature. This tighter tolerance supports higher-accuracy voltage references compared to standard ±5% variants like JANTX1N4622-1.
Is JANTX1N4622C-1 suitable for high-temperature operation?
Yes, JANTX1N4622C-1 is rated for junction temperatures from –65 °C to +175 °C and is fully characterized across this range. Its metallurgical bond construction and hermetic DO-35 package ensure stable regulation in downhole, avionics, and engine-mounted applications where ambient temperatures exceed 125 °C.
What does the "JANTX" prefix signify for JANTX1N4622C-1?
The "JANTX" prefix indicates that JANTX1N4622C-1 is screened and tested to the JANTX level per MIL-PRF-19500/435, including extended temperature cycling, steady-state life testing, and lot traceability - making it suitable for high-reliability defense and aerospace systems.
Does JANTX1N4622C-1 require a heatsink in standard operation?
No, JANTX1N4622C-1 does not require a heatsink under typical 500 mW operation at 25 °C ambient. Its thermal resistance junction-to-lead is 250 °C/W with 3/8″ lead length, allowing adequate self-cooling in through-hole PCB layouts with standard copper pads per the datasheet derating curve.
How is polarity marked on JANTX1N4622C-1?
JANTX1N4622C-1 uses a cathode band marking on the glass body to indicate polarity. The banded end is the cathode and must be held positive relative to the anode for proper Zener regulation - incorrect orientation results in forward conduction (~1.1 V drop) instead of regulation.
