Product details
Overview
JANTXV1N4126D-1 from Microsemi is a 51 V, 1% tolerance, 500 mW metallurgically bonded glass Zener diode in DO-35 package, qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/435 JANTXV level for high-reliability voltage regulation in aerospace and defense power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the JANTXV1N4126D-1 datasheet, JANTXV1N4126D-1 pinout, JANTXV1N4126D-1 application, or JANTXV1N4126D-1 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy (±1%), low noise density (1 µV/√Hz), radiation hardness, and hermetic DO-35 packaging for stable operation across -65°C to +175°C.
Technical Context
This device operates as a precision shunt voltage regulator with a nominal Zener voltage of 51.0 V at 250 mA test current, exhibiting a dynamic impedance of 300 Ω and temperature coefficient of +0.100 %/°C - indicating positive drift above 50 V. Its metallurgical bond construction ensures low leakage and stable breakdown characteristics under thermal stress.
Designed for military-grade reliability, JANTXV1N4126D-1 supports regulated output over wide current ranges (IZK to IZM = 38.8 mA max) and maintains <0.01 µA reverse leakage at VR = 38.8 V, with minimal capacitance (<1.5 pF typical per Figure 3) and inherent radiation hardness per MicroNote 050.

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, 1% spec but in surface-mount DO-213AA package; no axial leads | Requires SMT assembly; unsuitable for through-hole prototyping or high-vibration mechanical retention | Select when board space is constrained and reflow capability exists |
| JANS1N4126D-1 | Identical electrical specs but qualified to JANS (highest MIL-PRF-19500 level); higher screening cost and longer lead time | Required only for mission-critical flight hardware where JANS-level radiation and burn-in testing are mandated | Select only if JANS certification is contractually required |
Compared with JANTXV1N4126D-1, the 1N4126US-1 offers footprint reduction at the expense of mechanical robustness, while JANS1N4126D-1 adds qualification rigor without electrical benefit - making JANTXV1N4126D-1 the optimal balance of performance, reliability, and procurement practicality for most high-integrity programs.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of JANTXV1N4126D-1?
JANTXV1N4126D-1 has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±1%, denoted by the "D" suffix in its nomenclature. This means its nominal 51.0 V Zener voltage is guaranteed between 50.49 V and 51.51 V at 250 mA test current and 25°C, supporting high-accuracy reference designs without external calibration.
Is JANTXV1N4126D-1 suitable for high-temperature operation?
Yes, JANTXV1N4126D-1 is rated for junction temperatures from -65°C to +175°C and features metallurgical bond construction that maintains parameter stability under thermal cycling. Its power dissipation is linearly derated from 500 mW at 25°C to zero at 175°C, enabling reliable use in downhole and avionics applications.
What does the "JANTXV" prefix indicate for JANTXV1N4126D-1?
The "JANTXV" prefix certifies that JANTXV1N4126D-1 meets MIL-PRF-19500/435 requirements at the JANTXV reliability level - including extended temperature testing, lot acceptance testing, and failure analysis traceability. It reflects higher screening than JAN or JANTX, with verified performance up to 175°C.
Does JANTXV1N4126D-1 have low noise characteristics?
Yes, JANTXV1N4126D-1 exhibits a noise density of 1 µV/√Hz at its 250 mA test current, among the lowest in the 1N41xx series. This makes it suitable for precision analog applications such as ADC references and sensor excitation where voltage noise directly impacts measurement resolution.
What package type is used for JANTXV1N4126D-1?
JANTXV1N4126D-1 uses the DO-35 (DO-204AH) axial-leaded, hermetically sealed glass package. The cathode is marked by a band on the glass body, and leads are tin-lead or RoHS-compliant matte-tin plated, meeting MIL-STD-750 solderability requirements.
