Product details
Overview
JANTXV1N4970CUS/TR from Microsemi is a military-grade, hermetically sealed surface-mount Zener diode rated for 5 W power dissipation, with nominal Zener voltage of 33 V at 40 mA test current, ±1% tolerance (C suffix), and maximum dynamic impedance of 200 Ω at IZT. It operates across –65 °C to +175 °C and is used in precision voltage regulation for avionics power conditioning.
For engineers reviewing the JANTXV1N4970CUS/TR datasheet, JANTXV1N4970CUS/TR pinout, JANTXV1N4970CUS/TR application, or JANTXV1N4970CUS/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its voidless-glass package, Category III metallurgical bond, radiation-hardened construction per MicroNote 050, and compliance with MIL-PRF-19500/356 Class V screening.
Technical Context
This device belongs to the 1N4954US–1N4996US family and uses a hard-glass, voidless hermetic enclosure with tungsten slugs and copper end caps finished in Sn/Pb. Its Zener breakdown mechanism delivers stable regulation over wide temperature and current ranges, supported by triple-layer passivation and ESD immunity per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020.
The JANTXV1N4970CUS/TR exhibits a temperature coefficient of +0.095 %/°C and maintains ≤3.0 V voltage regulation (ΔVZ) between 10% and 50% of IZM. Its thermal resistance is 10 °C/W junction-to-end-cap, enabling reliable operation at TEC = 125 °C before linear derating to zero at 175 °C.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| JANTXV1N4970DUS/TR | Same 33 V rating but ±0.5% tolerance (D suffix); higher cost and longer lead time | Required only where tighter initial accuracy is mandated by system-level calibration spec | Select JANTXV1N4970DUS/TR if ΔVZ budget demands <±0.165 V at 25 °C before temp drift |
| 1N4970US | Commercial-grade version; lacks MIL-PRF-19500/356 screening, no radiation hardness data | Suitable for ground-based non-safety-critical test equipment, not flight hardware | Choose 1N4970US only for lab prototypes or cost-sensitive industrial controls with <85 °C max ambient |
Compared with JANTXV1N4970CUS/TR, JANTXV1N4970DUS/TR offers superior initial accuracy but identical thermal and surge performance, while 1N4970US omits military screening and radiation assurance-making it unsuitable for deployed aerospace systems.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of JANTXV1N4970CUS/TR?
JANTXV1N4970CUS/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 33 V with ±1% tolerance, denoted by the "C" suffix in the part number. This tolerance is guaranteed at 25 °C and 40 mA test current per MIL-PRF-19500/356 screening, and applies across the full military temperature range when combined with its +0.095 %/°C temperature coefficient.
Is JANTXV1N4970CUS/TR compatible with lead-free soldering processes?
JANTXV1N4970CUS/TR features Sn/Pb-finished copper end caps and is qualified for reflow profiles up to 235 °C peak, but is not lead-free compatible. Its termination finish requires traditional eutectic soldering; conversion to Pb-free assembly would require redesign verification and is not supported per Microsemi SD44A specification.
Does JANTXV1N4970CUS/TR meet radiation hardness requirements for LEO missions?
Yes-JANTXV1N4970CUS/TR is inherently radiation-hardened per Microsemi MicroNote 050 and qualified for total ionizing dose (TID) exceeding 100 krad(Si), making it suitable for use in low-Earth orbit satellite power and telemetry subsystems without additional shielding or derating.
What is the maximum continuous Zener current for JANTXV1N4970CUS/TR?
The maximum continuous Zener current (IZM) for JANTXV1N4970CUS/TR is 5.0 A, calculated from its 5 W power rating and 33 V nominal Zener voltage (IZM = PZ / VZ). This value assumes operation at TEC = 125 °C and linear derating to zero at 175 °C per the datasheet's thermal curve.
How is polarity identified on JANTXV1N4970CUS/TR?
JANTXV1N4970CUS/TR uses a cathode band marking on the glass body to indicate polarity. The banded end is the cathode; the opposite end is the anode. This marking is visible under standard optical inspection and aligns with JEDEC-standard orientation for surface-mount Zener diodes in the "E" (D-5B) package.
