Product details
Overview
1N6080US/TR from Microsemi is an ultrafast recovery surface-mount glass power rectifier diode rated for 100 V working peak reverse voltage, 12.0 A average rectified forward current at TEC = +70°C, and 30 ns reverse recovery time. It features voidless hermetic glass packaging with Category I metallurgical bonds and is designed for high-reliability switching power supplies requiring low forward voltage (1.50 V @ 37.7 A pulsed) and high surge capability (175 A).
For engineers reviewing the 1N6080US/TR datasheet, 1N6080US/TR pinout, 1N6080US/TR application, or 1N6080US/TR equivalent, this diode serves as a critical high-surge, radiation-hardened rectifier in military-grade DC-DC converters, avionics power conditioning, and ruggedized industrial SMPS where failure tolerance and thermal robustness are mandatory.
Technical Context
This device belongs to Microsemi's ultrafast recovery rectifier family optimized for minimal reverse recovery charge and controlled avalanche behavior. Its 30 ns trr, 10.0 µA max reverse leakage at VRWM, and 5.0°C/W thermal resistance (RθJEC) enable efficient high-frequency operation under sustained thermal stress.
The hermetically sealed voidless glass package with tungsten slugs and copper end caps ensures mechanical integrity across -65°C to +155°C junction temperature range. Polarity is marked by cathode band; no surface marking on body per spec.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRWM | 100 V - Maximum continuous reverse voltage before breakdown; defines safe operating limit in bridge or flyback topologies. |
| IF(AV) @ TEC=70°C | 12.0 A - Sustained DC output current capability when mounted on engineered heatsink (EC = external case). |
| VF @ 37.7 A (pulsed) | 1.50 V - Low conduction loss during transient load conditions; reduces I²R heating in high-current pulses. |
| trr | 30 ns - Ultrafast recovery minimizes switching losses and EMI in >100 kHz SMPS designs. |
| IFSM (8.3 ms) | 175 A - Withstands severe line surges or startup inrush without degradation. |
| RθJEC | 5.0°C/W - Enables higher power dissipation with modest heatsinking; critical for compact, sealed enclosures. |
| IR @ VRWM | 10.0 µA - Low leakage preserves efficiency in high-impedance bias networks and standby circuits. |

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the 1N6080US/TR?
The 1N6080US/TR has a specified junction temperature range of -65°C to +155°C. This wide operating envelope supports deployment in cryogenic avionics subsystems and high-temperature engine-mounted electronics. The 5.0°C/W thermal resistance (RθJEC) allows effective heat transfer to the external case, enabling reliable operation even at upper temperature limits when properly mounted.
Does the 1N6080US/TR have a cathode band marking?
Yes, the 1N6080US/TR uses a visible cathode band to indicate polarity, consistent with industry-standard diode marking conventions. The band is applied directly on the glass envelope. No alphanumeric markings appear on the body per specification, and polarity identification relies solely on this band for assembly verification.
Is the 1N6080US/TR suitable for radiation-hardened applications?
Yes, the 1N6080US/TR is inherently radiation-hardened as documented in Microsemi MicroNote 050. Its voidless hermetic glass construction, tungsten slug leads, and Category I metallurgical bond provide immunity to total ionizing dose (TID) and single-event effects (SEE), making it qualified for spaceflight, nuclear instrumentation, and high-altitude defense platforms without supplemental shielding.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) specification for the 1N6080US/TR?
The 1N6080US/TR has a maximum reverse recovery time (trr) of 30 ns, measured at IF = 0.5 A, IRM = 1.0 A, and IR(REC) = 0.25 A. This ultrafast recovery characteristic minimizes switching losses and associated EMI in high-frequency (>100 kHz) power converters, especially in resonant and phase-shifted topologies used in modern avionics and radar supplies.
What package type does the 1N6080US/TR use?
The 1N6080US/TR uses the G-MELF (D-5C) package: a hermetically sealed voidless hard glass cylindrical body with tungsten slugs and copper end caps finished with Sn/Pb. Its dimensions are defined in the Microsemi datasheet, and it complies with EIA-481-B tape-and-reel standards for automated SMT placement.
