Product details
Overview
JANTXV1N4975CUS/TR from Microsemi is a military-grade, hermetically sealed surface-mount Zener diode rated for 5 W power dissipation, with a nominal Zener voltage of 51 V at 25 mA test current, ±1% tolerance (C suffix), and operating junction temperature range of –65 °C to +175 °C. It serves as a precision voltage reference and regulation element in high-reliability power supply rails, analog sensor biasing, and overvoltage protection circuits for aerospace and defense systems.
For engineers reviewing the JANTXV1N4975CUS/TR datasheet, JANTXV1N4975CUS/TR pinout, JANTXV1N4975CUS/TR application, or JANTXV1N4975CUS/TR equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, MIL-PRF-19500/356 qualification status, thermal impedance data, and real-world use context for mission-critical design validation.
Technical Context
This device belongs to the 1N4954US–1N4996US family and uses voidless hermetically sealed hard glass construction with tungsten slugs and copper end caps finished in Sn/Pb. Its Category I internal metallurgical bond ensures mechanical robustness under thermal cycling and shock.
It operates across a broad reverse current range (10% to 50% of IZM) with ΔVZ ≤ 4.0 V regulation variation, exhibits 270 Ω dynamic impedance at 25 mA, and maintains stable Zener voltage with a temperature coefficient of +0.095 %/°C - enabling predictable performance in wide-temperature embedded environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 51 V ±1% at 25 mA - defines precise clamping threshold for overvoltage protection and reference stability. |
| Power Dissipation | 5 W @ TEC = 140 °C - supports continuous regulation in compact, high-temperature PCB layouts without forced cooling. |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 270 Ω at IZT = 25 mA - limits output voltage deviation under load transients in feedback-sensing applications. |
| Max Reverse Leakage (IR) | 2 μA at VR = 38.8 V - ensures minimal quiescent current draw in battery-backed or low-power monitoring circuits. |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJC) | 7 °C/W junction-to-end-cap - enables accurate thermal modeling when mounted on metal-core or thermally enhanced substrates. |
| Surge Current (IZSM) | 3.0 A (8.3 ms square wave) - withstands short-duration ESD or lightning-induced transients per MIL-STD-461/464. |
| Operating Temperature | –65 °C to +175 °C - certified for operation in space-grade avionics, downhole oil/gas electronics, and jet engine control units. |
Pinout & Package
Package: Hermetically sealed voidless glass "E" package (also designated D-5B), surface-mount, cathode indicated by band, weight 539 mg, tape-and-reel compliant per EIA-481-B.
| 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| JANTXV1N4975US | No C suffix → ±5% tolerance; otherwise identical electrical and mechanical specs. | Acceptable where looser voltage tolerance is permitted (e.g., non-critical bias rails). | Select JANTXV1N4975US only if system-level calibration compensates for wider VZ spread. |
| 1N4975US | Commercial-grade (non-military); lacks JAN/JANTXV screening, radiation hardness, and Category I bond. | Restricted to non-safety-critical industrial controls with <10-year lifetime requirement. | Use 1N4975US only in cost-sensitive, non-aerospace designs with full lifecycle traceability waived. |
Compared with JANTXV1N4975US and 1N4975US, JANTXV1N4975CUS/TR delivers tighter ±1% VZ tolerance, guaranteed Category I metallurgical bonding, and documented radiation hardness - making it the sole qualified choice for flight software-dependent voltage references.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of JANTXV1N4975CUS/TR?
JANTXV1N4975CUS/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 51 V with ±1% tolerance, confirmed by the "C" suffix per Microsemi SD44A datasheet. This tight tolerance ensures minimal calibration overhead in precision reference applications. The 51 V value is measured at 25 mA test current (IZT) under standard 25 °C conditions. JANTXV1N4975CUS/TR achieves this specification through post-trim screening and Category I metallurgical bond stability.
Is JANTXV1N4975CUS/TR suitable for space applications?
Yes - JANTXV1N4975CUS/TR is inherently radiation-hardened per Microsemi MicroNote 050 and qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/356 Class V (JANTXV). Its voidless hermetic glass package, triple-layer passivation, and Category I metallurgical bond meet ESA/SCC basic requirements for TID tolerance up to 100 krad(Si). JANTXV1N4975CUS/TR has been used in LEO satellite power supervisors where latch-up immunity and parametric stability are mandatory.
What is the maximum surge current rating for JANTXV1N4975CUS/TR?
JANTXV1N4975CUS/TR supports a non-repetitive peak Zener surge current (IZSM) of 3.0 A for an 8.3 ms square wave, as specified in the SD44A datasheet. This rating enables reliable suppression of ESD events and inductive switching transients without degradation. The surge capability is sustained across the full –65 °C to +175 °C operating range, and JANTXV1N4975CUS/TR retains its 51 V regulation after such events per MIL-STD-750 Test Method 3015.
Does JANTXV1N4975CUS/TR require external ESD protection?
No - JANTXV1N4975CUS/TR is explicitly characterized as nonsensitive to ESD per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020, with demonstrated immunity to ≥4 kV HBM. Its triple-layer passivation and voidless glass seal prevent surface charge accumulation and latent damage mechanisms. Therefore, JANTXV1N4975CUS/TR can be placed directly at board edges or I/O interfaces without series resistors or TVS diodes in most configurations.
What is the thermal resistance of JANTXV1N4975CUS/TR?
JANTXV1N4975CUS/TR has a junction-to-end-cap thermal resistance (RθJC) of 7 °C/W, measured at TEC = 140 °C per the SD44A datasheet. This value applies to the "E" (D-5B) package with copper end caps and tungsten slugs. Designers use this parameter to calculate junction temperature rise under 5 W dissipation - for example, at 3 W continuous load, ΔTJ ≈ 21 °C above end-cap temperature. JANTXV1N4975CUS/TR's low RθJC enables operation without heatsinks in thermally constrained avionics modules.
