Product details
Overview
JANTX1N4982CUS/TR from Microsemi is a military-qualified, hermetically sealed surface-mount Zener diode with 100 V nominal Zener voltage, 5 W power rating at 140 °C end-cap temperature, ±2% voltage tolerance (C suffix), and −65 °C to +175 °C operating junction temperature range. It serves as a precision voltage reference and overvoltage clamp in high-reliability power regulation circuits for aerospace avionics and radiation-hardened instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the JANTX1N4982CUS/TR datasheet, JANTX1N4982CUS/TR pinout, JANTX1N4982CUS/TR application, or JANTX1N4982CUS/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its voidless-glass package, Category I metallurgical bond, 1.5 V forward voltage at 1.0 A, 110 Ω dynamic impedance at 12 mA test current, and compliance with MIL-PRF-19500/356 Class JANTX.
Technical Context
This device belongs to Microsemi's legacy 1N49xxUS series of high-reliability Zener regulators, fabricated using voidless hermetically sealed glass construction with internal tungsten slugs and copper end caps with Sn/Pb finish. Its triple-layer passivation and Category I metallurgical bond ensure robustness against thermal cycling and mechanical stress.
Designed for stable voltage regulation across wide current (10%–50% of IZM) and temperature ranges, it delivers ΔVZ ≤ 8.0 V under specified regulation conditions and exhibits a temperature coefficient of +0.100 %/°C at 12 mA, enabling predictable drift compensation in precision analog subsystems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 100 V ±2% at 12 mA - defines precise clamping threshold for overvoltage protection and reference stability |
| Power Dissipation | 5 W @ TEC = 140 °C - sets maximum continuous thermal load without derating in conduction-cooled PCB layouts |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 110 Ω @ IZT = 12 mA - determines output voltage variation under load transients in feedback loops |
| Max Reverse Leakage (IR) | 2 μA @ VR = 76 V - ensures minimal quiescent current draw in high-impedance bias networks |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 1.50 V @ 1.0 A - establishes conduction loss and thermal rise during forward-biased fault conditions |
| Temp Coefficient (αVZ) | +0.100 %/°C @ IZT = 12 mA - enables accurate drift modeling for temperature-compensated references |
| Surge Current (IZSM) | 1.4 A @ 8.3 ms - supports single-event transient suppression per MIL-STD-461/464 requirements |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| JANTXV1N4982CUS/TR | Higher screening level (JANTXV vs JANTX); tighter lot traceability; same electrical specs and package | Required for programs demanding enhanced burn-in and radiation lot acceptance testing per MIL-PRF-19500/356 | Select when full JANTXV qualification and extended reliability reporting are mandated by system-level spec |
| 1N4982US | Commercial-grade version; no MIL-PRF-19500 qualification; identical Zener voltage, power, and package | Suitable only for non-military industrial systems where radiation hardness and extreme temp operation are not required | Choose for cost-sensitive terrestrial applications with ambient temps ≤ +125 °C and no ESD/radiation constraints |
Compared with JANTX1N4982CUS/TR, JANTXV1N4982CUS/TR adds process-level screening for mission-critical flight hardware, while 1N4982US omits military qualification entirely-making the JANTX variant the optimal balance of assured reliability and procurement accessibility for defense electronics.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of JANTX1N4982CUS/TR?
JANTX1N4982CUS/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 100 V with ±2% tolerance, denoted by the "C" suffix in the part number. This tolerance is guaranteed at 25 °C and 12 mA test current per MIL-PRF-19500/356, and remains stable across its full −65 °C to +175 °C operating range. The JANTX1N4982CUS/TR achieves this tight tolerance through post-trim screening and hermetic voidless packaging that prevents parameter drift.
Does JANTX1N4982CUS/TR require heatsinking in 5 W operation?
JANTX1N4982CUS/TR is rated for 5 W dissipation only at TEC = 140 °C, meaning effective thermal management is mandatory. Its junction-to-end-cap thermal resistance is 7 °C/W, so a 5 W load generates ~35 °C rise above end-cap temperature. Without heatsinking, PCB copper area and airflow must maintain end-cap temperature ≤140 °C; otherwise, linear derating applies down to zero at 175 °C. The JANTX1N4982CUS/TR datasheet specifies no heatsink requirement but assumes conduction-cooled mounting per D-5B pad layout.
Is JANTX1N4982CUS/TR compatible with lead-free reflow processes?
JANTX1N4982CUS/TR features Sn/Pb finish on copper end caps and is qualified for traditional eutectic solder reflow only. Its glass package and internal metallurgy are not rated for peak temperatures >220 °C required by lead-free profiles. Microsemi documentation explicitly states Sn/Pb finish and does not list RoHS-compliant variants. For JANTX1N4982CUS/TR, lead-free assembly is not recommended and may cause seal integrity loss or bond degradation.
How does the voidless-glass construction of JANTX1N4982CUS/TR improve reliability?
The voidless-glass construction of JANTX1N4982CUS/TR eliminates internal microcavities that could expand under thermal cycling or vacuum, preventing hermetic seal failure and parameter shift. Combined with tungsten slugs and Category I metallurgical bonds, this structure withstands >1000 thermal cycles from −65 °C to +175 °C per MIL-STD-883 Method 1010. The JANTX1N4982CUS/TR achieves >100,000-hour MTBF in space applications due to this defect-free encapsulation.
What is the maximum surge current rating for JANTX1N4982CUS/TR?
JANTX1N4982CUS/TR is rated for 1.4 A nonrepetitive surge current at an 8.3 ms half-sine waveform, per MIL-STD-750 Method 3011. This value is derived from its 5 W power rating and thermal time constant, and is validated across all production lots. The surge capability enables JANTX1N4982CUS/TR to absorb load-dump transients in aircraft 28 V and 115 V AC systems without degradation, provided duty cycle remains below 0.1%.
