Product details
Overview
JANTXV1N4986DUS/TR from Microsemi is a military-grade, hermetically sealed surface-mount Zener diode with 150 V nominal zener voltage, 5 W power rating at 140 °C end-cap temperature, ±5% tolerance, and 1.5 V forward voltage at 1.0 A. It delivers stable voltage regulation in high-reliability aerospace power conditioning, radiation-hardened sensor biasing, and avionics reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the JANTXV1N4986DUS/TR datasheet, JANTXV1N4986DUS/TR pinout, JANTXV1N4986DUS/TR application, or JANTXV1N4986DUS/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its voidless-glass package, -65 °C to +175 °C operating range, 7 °C/W junction-to-end-cap thermal resistance, MIL-PRF-19500/356 qualification, and 114 V minimum regulation voltage at 10%–50% IZM.
Technical Context
This device operates as a precision shunt voltage regulator in reverse-biased breakdown mode, maintaining stable output across wide current (12 mA to 930 mA) and temperature (-65 °C to +175 °C) ranges. Its internal Category I metallurgical bond and triple-layer passivation ensure long-term reliability under thermal cycling and mechanical stress.
The JANTXV1N4986DUS/TR exhibits 330 Ω dynamic impedance at 10 mA test current and 1500 Ω at 1 mA knee current, with a temperature coefficient of +0.105 %/°C - enabling predictable drift compensation in high-stability analog references.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 150 V nominal at 8 mA; minimum 114 V over 10–50% IZM, ensuring robust regulation margin in supply rails. |
| Power Dissipation | 5 W at TEC = 140 °C; derates linearly to zero at 175 °C - defines maximum continuous thermal load in conduction-cooled layouts. |
| Dynamic Impedance | 330 Ω at IZT = 8 mA; 1500 Ω at IZK = 1 mA - determines AC ripple rejection and regulation sensitivity near knee. |
| Reverse Leakage | 2 μA max at 114 V and 25 °C - ensures minimal standby current in high-impedance bias networks. |
| Thermal Resistance | 7 °C/W junction-to-end-cap - enables accurate junction temperature estimation using end-cap thermometry. |
| Temperature Coefficient | +0.105 %/°C at IZT - quantifies voltage drift per degree for stability-critical reference designs. |
| Surge Current | 1.0 A peak (8.3 ms square wave) - supports transient overvoltage clamping without degradation. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| JANTXV1N4986US | No TR suffix; bulk packaging instead of tape-and-reel; identical electrical specs and MIL qualification. | Suitable for manual prototyping or low-volume hand-soldered assemblies where reel feeding is unnecessary. | Select JANTXV1N4986US when automated SMT placement is not required and cost-per-unit is prioritized over logistics efficiency. |
| 1N4986US | Commercial-grade (non-JANTXV); lacks MIL-PRF-19500 screening, radiation hardness documentation, and Category I bond validation. | Restricted to non-safety-critical industrial or test equipment where extended temperature and radiation tolerance are not mandated. | Choose 1N4986US only for cost-sensitive terrestrial applications with ambient temperature limits below +125 °C and no radiation exposure requirements. |
Compared with JANTXV1N4986US and 1N4986US, the JANTXV1N4986DUS/TR provides guaranteed tape-and-reel delivery for automated production, full military screening traceability, and validated performance under extreme environmental stress - making it the sole option for flight-certified hardware.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of JANTXV1N4986DUS/TR?
The JANTXV1N4986DUS/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 150 V with a standard tolerance of ±5%, as defined in MIL-PRF-19500/356. This tolerance applies across the full operating temperature range of -65 °C to +175 °C and ensures consistent regulation performance in high-reliability applications without requiring post-installation calibration.
Does JANTXV1N4986DUS/TR require heatsinking in 5 W operation?
JANTXV1N4986DUS/TR is rated for 5 W dissipation at an end-cap temperature (TEC) of 140 °C, with thermal resistance of 7 °C/W junction-to-end-cap. Heatsinking is not mandatory if PCB copper area and ambient conditions maintain TEC ≤ 140 °C; however, thermal vias and 1–2 in² of 2-oz copper are recommended for sustained 5 W operation in enclosed enclosures.
Is JANTXV1N4986DUS/TR compatible with lead-free reflow processes?
JANTXV1N4986DUS/TR features Sn/Pb-finished copper end caps and is qualified for traditional eutectic solder reflow. While it can survive lead-free reflow profiles (peak ≤ 245 °C), Microsemi does not guarantee parametric stability or long-term reliability under Pb-free thermal cycles; use only with Sn/Pb solder unless explicitly re-qualified per J-STD-020.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for JANTXV1N4986DUS/TR at 114 V?
The maximum reverse leakage current for JANTXV1N4986DUS/TR is 2 μA at 114 V and 25 °C, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. This low leakage supports high-impedance bias networks and minimizes power loss in battery-backed or energy-constrained systems.
How does the temperature coefficient of JANTXV1N4986DUS/TR affect long-term voltage stability?
The JANTXV1N4986DUS/TR has a temperature coefficient of +0.105 %/°C at IZT, meaning its Zener voltage increases by approximately 0.158 V per 1 °C rise above 25 °C. This predictable positive drift allows designers to compensate reference circuits using complementary components or software calibration in systems operating across wide thermal ranges.
