Product details
Overview
JANTXV1N4126C-1/TR from Microsemi is a 51 V, ±2% tolerance, 500 mW metallurgically bonded glass Zener diode in DO-35 (DO-204AH) axial package, qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/435 JANTXV level for high-reliability voltage regulation in aerospace power conditioning and precision reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the JANTXV1N4126C-1/TR datasheet, JANTXV1N4126C-1/TR pinout, JANTXV1N4126C-1/TR application, or JANTXV1N4126C-1/TR equivalent, this page delivers verified Zener voltage, temperature coefficient, dynamic impedance, noise density, and military qualification status - all critical for radiation-hardened analog design, voltage reference stability, and legacy avionics BOM continuity.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal shunt voltage regulator with cathode-banded polarity, requiring reverse-bias operation where the banded end is positive relative to the anode. Its metallurgical bond ensures low thermal resistance (RθJL = 250 °C/W) and stable breakdown under thermal cycling.
It exhibits a +0.100 %/°C temperature coefficient above 47 V, 300 Ω maximum Zener impedance at 250 mA test current, and 1 µV/√Hz typical noise density - enabling use in low-noise bandgap references and precision bias networks where drift and spectral purity are design-critical.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage VZ | 51.0 V ±2% at IZT = 250 mA - defines precise regulation point for mid-range reference applications |
| Power Dissipation | 500 mW at TL = 25 °C, derated linearly to zero at 175 °C - sets thermal layout constraints on lead length and PCB copper area |
| Zener Impedance ZZT | 300 Ω max at IZT = 250 mA - determines output voltage variation under load transients |
| Noise Density ND | 1 µV/√Hz typical - enables low-noise analog references without external filtering |
| Temp. Coefficient αVZ | +0.100 %/°C - quantifies voltage drift per degree Celsius above 47 V, critical for wide-temperature operation |
| Reverse Leakage IR | 10 µA max at VR = 38.8 V - confirms low standby current in high-impedance bias networks |
| Junction Temp. Range | -65 °C to +175 °C - supports operation in extended-environment military and space platforms |
Pinout & Package
DO-35 (DO-204AH) hermetically sealed axial-leaded glass package with tin-lead plating; cathode indicated by single black band; weight ≈ 0.2 g; body diameter 1.42–2.29 mm, overall length 25.4–38.1 mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4126US-1 | Same 51 V, ±2%, DO-213AA surface-mount package; RθJA = 400 °C/W (vs. 300 °C/W for DO-35); no JANTXV qualification | Used in space-constrained commercial PCBs where reflow compatibility is required but military screening is not mandated | Select when automated assembly and board density outweigh need for MIL-qualified screening and thermal performance |
| JANTXV1N4126D-1/TR | Identical 51 V rating and JANTXV qualification, but ±1% tolerance (D suffix); higher cost and longer lead time | Deployed in metrology-grade calibration instruments where ±1% initial accuracy reduces system-level trimming effort | Select only if tighter initial tolerance justifies cost premium and supply chain impact; JANTXV1N4126C-1/TR remains optimal for most avionics |
Compared with 1N4126US-1, JANTXV1N4126C-1/TR offers superior thermal resistance and full military qualification but requires through-hole assembly; compared with JANTXV1N4126D-1/TR, it trades ±1% tolerance for lower cost and broader availability while retaining identical reliability screening and thermal behavior.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of JANTXV1N4126C-1/TR?
JANTXV1N4126C-1/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 51.0 V with a ±2% tolerance, as indicated by the "C" suffix in the part number per Microsemi's nomenclature. This tolerance is specified at IZT = 250 mA and TA = 25 °C, and applies across the full qualified temperature range of -65 °C to +175 °C per MIL-PRF-19500/435 requirements.
Is JANTXV1N4126C-1/TR RoHS compliant?
No, JANTXV1N4126C-1/TR is not RoHS compliant. The "e3" RoHS designation appears only on commercial-grade versions of this family; JANTXV-level parts retain traditional tin-lead plating to meet MIL-STD-750 solderability and reliability requirements. RoHS compliance is explicitly excluded for JANTXV-qualified devices per Microsemi documentation.
What does the "TR" suffix mean in JANTXV1N4126C-1/TR?
The "TR" suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-296 standard, enabling automated pick-and-place assembly. JANTXV1N4126C-1/TR is supplied in reels containing standard quantities defined by Microsemi's packaging specification, with full traceability back to the original qualified lot - essential for aerospace and defense manufacturing.
How is the temperature coefficient of JANTXV1N4126C-1/TR determined?
JANTXV1N4126C-1/TR has a temperature coefficient of +0.100 %/°C, measured as the change in Zener voltage per degree Celsius change in junction temperature. This value is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of T4-LDS-0245-2 and applies to the 51 V variant (1N4126-1 series), distinguishing it from lower-voltage parts with negative or mixed coefficients.
Can JANTXV1N4126C-1/TR replace commercial 1N4126C-1 in existing designs?
JANTXV1N4126C-1/TR shares identical electrical parameters and DO-35 mechanical form factor with commercial 1N4126C-1, but adds full MIL-PRF-19500/435 JANTXV qualification including extended temperature screening, lot traceability, and enhanced reliability testing. It is a drop-in replacement where military-grade assurance is required, though its higher cost and longer lead times should be evaluated against program needs.
