Product details
Overview
JAN1N6153US/TR from Microsemi is a voidless hermetically sealed surface-mount bidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/516 at JAN level, with 22.8 V working standoff voltage (VWM), 41.6 V clamping voltage (VC) at 36.0 A peak pulse current (IPP), and 1500 W peak pulse power for 10/1000 µs waveform - deployed in avionics power bus protection.
For engineers reviewing the JAN1N6153US/TR datasheet, JAN1N6153US/TR pinout, JAN1N6153US/TR application, or JAN1N6153US/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include military-grade reliability qualification, bidirectional surge suppression capability, glass-body thermal resistance (5.0 °C/W), and compatibility with high-reliability PCB assembly under MIL-STD-202 and MIL-STD-750 test conditions.
Technical Context
This device operates as a bidirectional avalanche diode-based TVS, leveraging Category 1 internal metallurgical bonds and voidless hard-glass construction to sustain repeated 1500 W transients without degradation. Its breakdown voltage is 28.5 V minimum at 40 mA, with temperature coefficient αV(BR) of 0.09 %/°C.
It delivers ESD protection per IEC 61000-4-2 and EFT per IEC 61000-4-4, and meets lightning-induced surge immunity per select levels of IEC 61000-4-5. Standby leakage is ≤5 µA at 22.8 V, and junction temperature range spans −55 °C to +175 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM | 22.8 V - maximum continuous reverse voltage before conduction begins; sets system operating margin below clamping threshold |
| V(BR) min | 28.5 V @ 40 mA - guaranteed avalanche onset voltage; defines minimum overvoltage trigger point |
| VC @ IPP | 41.6 V @ 36.0 A - clamped voltage during 10/1000 µs surge; determines protected circuit's max transient exposure |
| PPP | 1500 W - peak impulse power handling; enables robust defense against MIL-STD-1275B and DO-160D lightning surges |
| TJ Range | −55 °C to +175 °C - extended operational envelope supporting aerospace and downhole electronics |
| RθJEC | 5.0 °C/W - low thermal resistance from junction to end cap; critical for pulsed-power thermal management |
| ID @ VWM | ≤5 µA - ultra-low leakage ensures minimal standby power loss in battery-backed systems |
Pinout & Package
Package: SQ-MELF (C package), hermetically sealed voidless hard-glass case with tungsten slugs and tin/lead-plated copper terminals; no polarity marking due to bidirectional symmetry.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| JAN1N6152US/TR | VWM = 20.6 V, VC = 37.4 V @ 40.1 A - lower clamping voltage but reduced standoff margin | Better for 24 V systems with tighter voltage headroom; less margin against sustained overvoltage | Select when clamping voltage priority outweighs standoff voltage requirement |
| JAN1N6154US/TR | VWM = 25.1 V, VC = 45.7 V @ 32.8 A - higher standoff but elevated clamping level | Suitable for 28 V nominal systems requiring greater continuous voltage tolerance | Choose when system must tolerate longer-duration overvoltages without conduction |
Compared with JAN1N6153US/TR, JAN1N6152US/TR offers lower clamping at the cost of reduced standoff, while JAN1N6154US/TR increases standoff margin but raises clamping voltage - selection depends on whether system robustness prioritizes surge suppression level or continuous voltage tolerance.

FAQ
What is the working standoff voltage (VWM) specification for JAN1N6153US/TR?
The working standoff voltage (VWM) for JAN1N6153US/TR is 22.8 V - the maximum continuous DC or repetitive peak voltage that can be applied without triggering conduction. This value is defined per MIL-PRF-19500/516 and verified during JAN-level screening. The JAN1N6153US/TR maintains this rating across its full operating temperature range of −55 °C to +175 °C, making it suitable for harsh-environment deployment where voltage margins must remain stable.
Is JAN1N6153US/TR RoHS compliant?
No, JAN1N6153US/TR is not RoHS compliant. Per the nomenclature table in T4-LDS-0278-1 Rev. 2, the "e3" RoHS suffix is only available on commercial-grade versions; JAN-level parts like JAN1N6153US/TR use standard tin/lead plating and are exempt from RoHS requirements per MIL-PRF-19500/516. The JAN1N6153US/TR retains lead content to ensure solder joint reliability under thermal cycling and mechanical shock per MIL-STD-883.
What is the clamping voltage (VC) and peak pulse current (IPP) for JAN1N6153US/TR?
The clamping voltage (VC) for JAN1N6153US/TR is 41.6 V measured at a peak pulse current (IPP) of 36.0 A under the standard 10/1000 µs waveform. This VC value is guaranteed per MIL-PRF-19500/516 test conditions and reflects the maximum voltage seen by protected circuitry during surge events. The JAN1N6153US/TR sustains this performance with ≤5 µA leakage at VWM and 0.09 %/°C temperature coefficient of breakdown voltage.
How does JAN1N6153US/TR differ from the non-A version (e.g., JAN1N6153US/TR vs. JAN1N6153US/TR without 'A')?
The "A" suffix in JAN1N6153US/TR denotes tighter electrical tolerances: minimum breakdown voltage is 28.5 V (vs. 5% lower for non-A), clamping voltage is 41.6 V (vs. 5% higher for non-A), and peak pulse current is 36.0 A (vs. 5% lower for non-A). These differences are explicitly defined in the nomenclature section of T4-LDS-0278-1 Rev. 2. The JAN1N6153US/TR is therefore the preferred choice for precision surge protection where consistent clamping behavior and guaranteed minimum V(BR) are required.
What packaging format is used for JAN1N6153US/TR?
JAN1N6153US/TR uses the SQ-MELF ("C") package - a voidless hermetically sealed hard-glass surface-mount case with square-end-cap terminals, tungsten slugs, and tin/lead-plated copper leads. Dimensions are 0.183–0.202 inch diameter and 0.205–0.245 inch length. The JAN1N6153US/TR has no polarity marking due to its bidirectional design and is supplied in EIA-481-B tape-and-reel format unless otherwise specified.
