Product details
Overview
JANTX1N4983US/TR from Microsemi is a military-grade, voidless hermetically sealed surface-mount Zener diode rated for 5 W power dissipation at 140 °C end-cap temperature, with nominal Zener voltage of 110 V ±5%, dynamic impedance of 125 Ω at 12 mA test current, and operating junction temperature range from –65 °C to +175 °C. It serves as a precision voltage reference and overvoltage clamp in high-reliability aerospace power conditioning circuits.
For engineers reviewing the JANTX1N4983US/TR datasheet, JANTX1N4983US/TR pinout, JANTX1N4983US/TR application, or JANTX1N4983US/TR equivalent, this part is selected for mission-critical voltage regulation where ESD immunity (MIL-STD-750 Method 1020), radiation hardness, and stable Zener voltage across wide temperature and current ranges are mandatory design requirements.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode with tightly controlled voltage regulation over 10%–50% of maximum Zener current (IZM = 1.2 A). Its voidless glass package with internal Category I metallurgical bond ensures mechanical robustness and hermetic reliability under thermal cycling and shock.
Electrical behavior is defined by three key parameters: Zener voltage VZ = 110 V at IZT = 12 mA, dynamic impedance ZZ = 125 Ω at IZT, and temperature coefficient αVZ = +0.100 %/°C - indicating positive drift with temperature, critical for bias network stability in analog front-ends.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 110 V ±5% at 12 mA - defines regulated output voltage under nominal bias conditions |
| Power Dissipation | 5 W @ TEC = 140 °C - sets maximum continuous thermal load before derating begins |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZ) | 125 Ω at IZT = 12 mA - determines regulation error under varying load current |
| Max Reverse Leakage (IR) | 2 μA at VR = 83.6 V - ensures minimal parasitic current in standby or high-impedance sensing |
| Junction Temperature Range | –65 °C to +175 °C - enables operation in extreme environments including space and jet engine bays |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 1.50 V at 1.0 A - defines conduction loss when used bidirectionally or in series protection |
| Surge Current (IZSM) | 1.2 A at 8.3 ms square wave - supports transient overvoltage clamping without failure |
Pinout & Package
Package: Hermetically sealed voidless hard glass case with tungsten slugs, "E" outline (also designated D-5B), surface-mount configuration with copper end caps finished in Sn/Pb. Cathode indicated by band.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| JANTXV1N4983US/TR | Higher screening level: JANTXV per MIL-PRF-19500/356 includes additional burn-in and parametric testing | Required for Class V (space-qualified) programs where extended life testing and lot traceability are mandated | Select JANTXV1N4983US/TR when full MIL-PRF-19500/356 Class V compliance is contractually required |
| 1N4983US/TR | Commercial-grade version; not subjected to JAN/JANTX-level screening or radiation characterization | Suitable only for non-mission-critical industrial applications with ambient temperatures below 125 °C | Choose 1N4983US/TR for cost-sensitive terrestrial designs where radiation hardness and extreme temperature operation are unnecessary |
Compared with JANTX1N4983US/TR, JANTXV1N4983US/TR adds burn-in and tighter lot acceptance testing for space use, while 1N4983US/TR omits military screening entirely - making JANTX1N4983US/TR the optimal balance of proven reliability and procurement flexibility for defense-grade ground and airborne systems.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for JANTX1N4983US/TR?
The JANTX1N4983US/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 110 V with a standard tolerance of ±5%, as specified in the Microsemi SD44A datasheet. This tolerance applies at 25 °C and IZT = 12 mA, and remains valid across the full operating temperature range per MIL-PRF-19500/356 qualification.
Does JANTX1N4983US/TR require special ESD handling during assembly?
No - JANTX1N4983US/TR is nonsensitive to electrostatic discharge per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020, and does not require ESD-safe workstations, wrist straps, or conductive packaging during handling or SMT placement. Its voidless glass construction and metallurgical bond inherently suppress ESD-induced damage.
What is the maximum continuous Zener current for JANTX1N4983US/TR?
The maximum continuous Zener current (IZM) for JANTX1N4983US/TR is 1.2 A, derived from its 5 W power rating and 110 V Zener voltage (P = V × I). This value assumes operation at TEC = 140 °C; current must be linearly derated above that temperature to zero at 175 °C junction limit.
Is JANTX1N4983US/TR compatible with lead-free reflow profiles?
JANTX1N4983US/TR features Sn/Pb terminations and is not qualified for lead-free reflow. Its glass-to-metal seal and internal metallurgy are optimized for eutectic solder processes. For RoHS-compliant designs, consult Microchip's current-generation alternatives or verify compatibility with controlled thermal profiling per J-STD-020.
How is cathode polarity identified on JANTX1N4983US/TR?
The cathode of JANTX1N4983US/TR is identified by a visible band on the hermetically sealed voidless glass body. This band aligns with the cathode terminal and must be oriented toward the higher-potential node in shunt regulator or clamp configurations to ensure proper reverse-bias operation.
