Product details
Overview
JANTXV1N4977DUS/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 62 V at 20 mA test current, ±5% tolerance, and dynamic impedance of 42 Ω at IZT. It operates from –65 °C to +175 °C and is used in high-reliability voltage regulation circuits for aerospace power conditioning and radiation-hardened instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the JANTXV1N4977DUS/TR datasheet, JANTXV1N4977DUS/TR pinout, JANTXV1N4977DUS/TR application, or JANTXV1N4977DUS/TR equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal performance data, MIL-PRF-19500/356 qualification status, package dimensions, and validated alternative parts for high-integrity analog design.
Technical Context
This device belongs to the 1N4954US–1N4996US family of voidless-glass Zener regulators qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/356 Class JANTXV. It uses an internal Category I metallurgical bond and triple-layer passivation for enhanced reliability under extreme thermal cycling and radiation exposure.
Its 62 V Zener voltage is stabilized across a wide operating current range (10% to 50% of IZM = 2.5–12.5 mA), with temperature coefficient αVZ = +0.100 %/°C and low reverse leakage (IR ≤ 2 μA at VR = 47.1 V) - enabling stable reference generation in unregulated DC-DC front ends and overvoltage clamp circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 62 V ±5% at IZT = 20 mA - defines precise clamping threshold for protection and reference circuits |
| Power Dissipation | 5 W @ TEC = 140 °C - supports continuous operation in high-temperature avionics enclosures |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZ) | 42 Ω at IZT - ensures minimal output voltage variation under load transients |
| Max Reverse Leakage (IR) | 2 μA at VR = 47.1 V - guarantees low standby power loss in battery-backed systems |

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of JANTXV1N4977DUS/TR?
JANTXV1N4977DUS/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 62 V with a standard tolerance of ±5%, as specified in the Microsemi SD44A datasheet. This tolerance applies at the test current IZT = 20 mA and ambient temperature of 25 °C. The "D" suffix in the part number does not indicate tighter tolerance - it denotes the military-grade screening level (JANTXV), not voltage accuracy.
Is JANTXV1N4977DUS/TR compatible with lead-free reflow processes?
JANTXV1N4977DUS/TR features Sn/Pb-finished copper end caps and is qualified for traditional eutectic solder reflow. It is not lead-free process compatible out-of-the-box. For RoHS-compliant assembly, Microsemi offers alternate versions with matte tin terminations - verify availability and reflow profile compatibility before substituting into Pb-free lines.
What is the maximum continuous Zener current (IZM) for JANTXV1N4977DUS/TR?
The maximum continuous Zener current IZM for JANTXV1N4977DUS/TR is 930 mA, calculated from its 5 W power rating and 62 V Zener voltage (P = VZ × IZM). This value assumes operation at TEC = 140 °C; derating is required linearly above that temperature, reaching zero at +175 °C junction temperature.
Does JANTXV1N4977DUS/TR require heatsinking in typical applications?
JANTXV1N4977DUS/TR has a junction-to-end-cap thermal resistance of 7 °C/W and is designed for direct PCB pad conduction. In most 5 W applications with adequate copper area (≥1 in² 2-oz Cu), external heatsinking is unnecessary. However, sustained operation near 5 W at >100 °C ambient benefits from thermal vias and ground-plane coupling to maintain TJ < 175 °C.
How is polarity marked on JANTXV1N4977DUS/TR?
JANTXV1N4977DUS/TR uses a cathode band for polarity identification, consistent with industry-standard Zener diode marking. The band is located adjacent to the cathode terminal (higher-potential side in reverse-bias operation). No alphanumeric marking is present on the device body, per the "MARKING: None" specification in the SD44A datasheet.
