Product details
Overview
JAN1N6149AUS/TR from Microsemi is a voidless hermetically sealed surface-mount bidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/516 at JAN level. It provides 15.2 V working standoff voltage (VWM), 19.0 V minimum breakdown voltage (V(BR)), 27.7 V clamping voltage (VC) at 54.2 A peak pulse current (IPP), and 1500 W peak pulse power for 10/1000 µs waveform-designed for lightning surge and ESD protection in avionics power interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the JAN1N6149AUS/TR datasheet, JAN1N6149AUS/TR pinout, JAN1N6149AUS/TR application, or JAN1N6149AUS/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its military-grade reliability, bidirectional clamping behavior, hard-glass SQ-MELF package, and compliance with IEC61000-4-2/4-4/4-5 transient immunity standards.
Technical Context
This TVS operates bidirectionally with no polarity marking and relies on internal Category 1 metallurgical bonds for high-reliability junction integrity. Its voidless hermetic glass construction ensures stable electrical parameters across -55 °C to +175 °C junction temperature range and eliminates moisture-induced failure mechanisms common in plastic-packaged suppressors.
The device delivers 1500 W peak pulse power under standardized 10/1000 µs waveform while maintaining 5 µA standby current at VWM and 0.085 %/°C temperature coefficient of breakdown voltage-enabling predictable clamping performance in thermally varying military platforms.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| JANTX1N6149AUS | JANTX screening adds extended temperature cycling and additional parametric testing beyond JAN requirements | Required for programs specifying JANTX-level reliability documentation and traceability | Select when full JANTX qualification evidence (e.g., QPL listing, lot-specific test reports) is contractually mandated |

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of JAN1N6149AUS/TR under a 10/1000 µs surge?
The JAN1N6149AUS/TR has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 27.7 V when subjected to a 54.2 A peak pulse current (IPP) under the standard 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is measured per MIL-STD-883 method 3012 and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during transient events. The clamping performance remains stable across its full -55 °C to +175 °C junction temperature range due to its 0.085 %/°C temperature coefficient.
Is JAN1N6149AUS/TR compatible with lead-free reflow processes?
JAN1N6149AUS/TR is qualified for solder reflow at 260 °C for 10 seconds, meeting JEDEC J-STD-020 requirements for lead-free assembly. Its hermetic glass package and tungsten slug construction ensure no internal delamination or parameter shift during standard Pb-free reflow profiles. However, the standard termination is tin/lead; RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating is available only on commercial-grade variants-not on JAN-level parts like JAN1N6149AUS/TR.
Does JAN1N6149AUS/TR require polarity-aware PCB layout?
No, JAN1N6149AUS/TR does not require polarity-aware PCB layout because it is a bidirectional TVS diode with no anode/cathode marking. Its symmetrical construction allows either end to serve as the anode or cathode depending on transient polarity, making it ideal for AC-coupled lines, floating grounds, or differential signal paths. The SQ-MELF package has identical end caps, further simplifying automated placement and eliminating orientation verification during assembly.
How does JAN1N6149AUS/TR meet IEC61000-4-5 lightning surge requirements?
JAN1N6149AUS/TR meets IEC61000-4-5 by clamping 10/1000 µs combination wave surges to 27.7 V at 54.2 A, limiting energy delivered to downstream circuitry. Its 1500 W peak pulse power rating exceeds Level 3 (1 kV line-earth, 2 kV line-line) and Level 4 (2 kV line-earth, 4 kV line-line) requirements when used with appropriate series impedance. The device's hermetic construction and Category 1 metallurgical bonds ensure consistent performance across repeated surges without parameter drift.
What is the maximum steady-state power dissipation of JAN1N6149AUS/TR at 25 °C ambient?
At TA = 25 °C, the JAN1N6149AUS/TR has a steady-state power dissipation rating of 3.0 W. This value assumes adequate PCB thermal management-specifically, a controlled thermal resistance from mounting point to ambient that prevents junction temperature from exceeding 175 °C. Derating is linear above 150 °C end-cap temperature, reaching zero at 175 °C. For continuous operation, designers must verify board layout thermal performance using Figure 6 from the T4-LDS-0278-1 datasheet.
