Product details
Overview
1N5665A/TR from Microchip Technology is a unidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode in a hermetically sealed DO-13 metal package, designed for high-reliability surge protection in aerospace and industrial systems. It features a 162 V rated standoff voltage (VWM), 287 V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 5.2 A peak pulse current (IPP), and 1500 W peak pulse power rating at 10/1000 µs waveform.
For engineers reviewing the 1N5665A/TR datasheet, 1N5665A/TR pinout, 1N5665A/TR application, or 1N5665A/TR equivalent, this device is selected for secondary lightning protection per IEC61000-4-5 (42 Ω source), ESD/EFT immunity per IEC61000-4-2/-4, and inductive switching transient suppression in avionics power rails and military-grade control interfaces.
Technical Context
This TVS operates as a unidirectional avalanche clamp with cathode-to-case polarity, leveraging silicon junction breakdown to divert transients before downstream circuitry sustains damage. Its <100 ps response time ensures effective suppression of ESD events and fast-rising inductive spikes without reliance on external triggering or timing circuits.
The device is rated for operation from –55°C to +175°C and exhibits a temperature coefficient of breakdown voltage (αVBR) of 0.108 %/°C. Its thermal resistance is 50°C/W junction-to-lead (at 10 mm lead length), enabling robust power handling under pulsed conditions while maintaining low standby leakage (≤5 µA at VWM).

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5665A (bulk) | Identical electrical specs and DO-13 package; differs only in packaging format (bulk vs. tape-and-reel) | No functional difference; TR suffix indicates EIA-296 tape-and-reel delivery for automated assembly | Select 1N5665A/TR when SMT placement or high-volume reel-fed production is required |
| SMCJ160A | Surface-mount SMC package; 160 V VWM, 259 V VC @ 5.8 A; same 1500 W rating but lower thermal resistance (junction-to-ambient) | Better suited for PCB space-constrained designs; lacks hermetic seal and radiation hardness | Choose SMCJ160A only for commercial-grade, non-military applications where DO-13 footprint is unacceptable |
Compared with 1N5665A/TR, the bulk 1N5665A offers identical performance with manual handling advantages, while SMCJ160A trades hermetic reliability and military qualification for surface-mount compatibility-making the TR variant optimal for high-reliability through-hole production requiring traceable reel logistics.

FAQ
What is the standoff voltage (VWM) specification for the 1N5665A/TR?
The 1N5665A/TR has a rated standoff voltage (VWM) of 162 V, meaning it remains non-conductive up to this DC or continuous peak operating voltage. This value is selected to exceed typical 28 V or 12 V system rails with margin, ensuring no leakage or conduction during normal operation while enabling rapid avalanche response during transients.
How does the 1N5665A/TR achieve compliance with IEC61000-4-5 for secondary lightning protection?
The 1N5665A/TR meets IEC61000-4-5 Class 1–4 secondary lightning requirements when used with appropriate series impedance, due to its 1500 W peak pulse power rating and verified clamping performance at 10/1000 µs waveforms. Its 287 V clamping voltage at 5.2 A ensures protected circuits see limited overvoltage even under 42 Ω, 12 Ω, or 2 Ω source impedances defined in the standard.
Is the 1N5665A/TR suitable for ESD protection per IEC61000-4-2?
Yes-the 1N5665A/TR clamps transients in less than 100 ps, making it effective for IEC61000-4-2 ESD protection. Its low leakage (≤5 µA at 162 V VWM) and fast response prevent damage to sensitive inputs such as ARINC 429 receivers or analog sensor front-ends, provided layout minimizes parasitic inductance between the device and protected node.
What is the significance of the "TR" suffix in 1N5665A/TR?
"TR" denotes tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-296 standards, enabling automated pick-and-place assembly. The 1N5665A/TR retains identical electrical and mechanical specifications as the bulk 1N5665A, including DO-13 hermetic construction, 162 V VWM, and MIL-PRF-19500/500 qualification-only the delivery format differs.
Does the 1N5665A/TR have radiation hardness certification?
Yes-the 1N5665A/TR is inherently radiation hard per Microsemi MicroNote 050, a documented characteristic of its DO-13 hermetic metal-glass construction and silicon process. This makes it suitable for avionics and space-qualified subsystems where total ionizing dose (TID) and single-event effects (SEE) resilience are required.
