Product details
Overview
JAN1N6643US/TR from Microsemi is a hermetically sealed, ultra-fast switching diode in the D-5D (SQ-MELF) package, rated for 75 V breakdown voltage, 50 V working peak reverse voltage, and 6.0 ns reverse recovery time at 10 mA. It delivers low forward voltage (0.8 V @ 10 mA), very low junction capacitance (2.8 pF @ 1.5 V), and operates across –65 °C to +175 °C - ideal for high-frequency data line protection in military-grade RS-232 interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the JAN1N6643US/TR datasheet, JAN1N6643US/TR pinout, JAN1N6643US/TR application, or JAN1N6643US/TR equivalent, this part serves as a qualified MIL-PRF-19500/578 JAN-level replacement for legacy signal diodes in timing-critical, high-reliability embedded systems where low capacitance and fast recovery are mandatory.
Technical Context
This diode uses metallurgically bonded construction inside a voidless hard-glass non-cavity package, enabling stable operation under thermal shock and extended temperature cycling. Its ultra-fast trr of 6.0 ns and low CJ of 2.8 pF support clean edge transitions in digital logic and interface circuits up to ~100 MHz.
The device is specified with dual reverse leakage limits: 50 nA at VRWM (50 V) and 100 µA at VRWM at +150 °C, confirming robustness in high-temperature avionics and downhole electronics. Thermal resistance RθJA is 250 °C/W on FR4 PCB, requiring minimal heatsinking in compact layouts.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Breakdown Voltage (VBR) | 75 V minimum - ensures reliable clamping above 50 V working voltage without avalanche conduction. |
| Working Peak Reverse Voltage (VRWM) | 50 V - defines maximum continuous reverse bias in signal path without degradation. |
| Reverse Recovery Time (trr) | 6.0 ns - enables use in >10 MHz switching applications with minimal tail current and ringing. |
| Junction Capacitance (CJ) | 2.8 pF @ 1.5 V - preserves signal integrity on high-speed data lines like RS-422 and Ethernet PHYs. |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 0.8 V @ 10 mA - minimizes power loss and self-heating in low-current logic-level clamping. |
| Operating Temperature Range | –65 °C to +175 °C - supports deployment in aerospace, defense, and oilfield electronics without derating. |
Pinout & Package
Package: D-5D (Square Miniature MELF), hermetically sealed hard-glass case with tin-lead plated terminals; cathode indicated by painted band; polarity critical for correct circuit function.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential side of signal path; must be biased positive relative to cathode for conduction. |
| Cathode | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Marked by band; connects to higher-potential node or ground reference; blocks up to 50 V reverse bias. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Metallurgical bonding | Eliminates wire bonds and interfacial delamination risk - critical for MIL-STD-883 vibration and thermal shock compliance. |
| Voidless hermetic seal | Prevents moisture ingress and long-term parameter drift - validated per MIL-PRF-19500/578 JANS-level testing. |
| Ultra-low capacitance | 2.8 pF enables <1% signal attenuation on 50 Ω transmission lines up to 100 MHz. |
| JAN reliability level | Qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/578 with full lot traceability, radiation hardness screening, and burn-in - required for flight-critical subsystems. |
Applications
| RS-232 Interface Protection | Ethernet 10BASE-T Receivers |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Clamping ESD transients and line reflections on serial communication ports in ruggedized industrial controllers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Signal-level transient suppressor placed directly at connector entry point before line driver/receiver ICs.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Precision signal-path clamp maintaining DC accuracy and AC bandwidth. Use Value: Stable –65 °C to +175 °C operation and <50 nA leakage at 50 V ensure no offset drift or noise injection across mission lifetime. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultra-fast switching diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4148UR-1 | Commercial-grade only; 4.0 ns trr, but not MIL-qualified; 75 V VRWM; higher CJ (4 pF). | Lacks JAN/JANTXV qualification; unsuitable for flight hardware or Class H environments. | Select when cost and speed outweigh radiation tolerance and extended temperature needs. |
| JAN1N6642US/TR | Higher VRWM (75 V) and VBR (100 V); identical trr (5.0 ns), CJ (2.8 pF), and package. | Better suited for 48 V bus monitoring or higher-voltage logic interfaces where 50 V margin is insufficient. | Choose if system reverse voltage exceeds 50 V but same speed and footprint are required. |
Compared with 1N4148UR-1 and JAN1N6642US/TR, the JAN1N6643US/TR uniquely balances 50 V working voltage, 6.0 ns switching, and full JAN-level qualification - making it the only option meeting both MIL-PRF-19500/578 requirements and tight 100 MHz signal integrity constraints.

FAQ
What is the reverse recovery time specification for JAN1N6643US/TR?
The JAN1N6643US/TR has a reverse recovery time (trr) of 6.0 ns under standard test conditions (IF = IR = 10 mA, IR(REC) = 1.0 mA). This value is measured per MIL-PRF-19500/578 and confirmed in the T4-LDS-0218-1 datasheet. The 6.0 ns trr makes JAN1N6643US/TR suitable for high-frequency switching applications such as RS-232 line clamping and Ethernet 10BASE-T receiver protection where fast edge fidelity is essential.
Is JAN1N6643US/TR RoHS compliant?
No, the JAN1N6643US/TR is not RoHS compliant. Per the T4-LDS-0218-1 datasheet, RoHS-compliant versions (e3 marking) are available only for commercial-grade variants, not for JAN-level devices. The JAN1N6643US/TR uses tin-lead plating (>3% Pb) on its terminals and is manufactured to meet MIL-PRF-19500/578 requirements, which permit leaded finishes for enhanced solderability and reliability in harsh environments.
What package type does JAN1N6643US/TR use?
JAN1N6643US/TR uses the D-5D package - a square miniature MELF (SQ-MELF) configuration with voidless hermetically sealed hard glass construction. Dimensions are 0.070–0.085 inches in diameter and 0.165–0.195 inches in length. The package features metallurgically bonded internal structure and cathode polarity indicated by a painted band, as documented in the T4-LDS-0218-1 mechanical drawings.
How does JAN1N6643US/TR differ from JAN1N6642US/TR?
JAN1N6643US/TR and JAN1N6642US/TR share identical package, reverse recovery time (5.0 ns vs. 6.0 ns), junction capacitance (2.8 pF), and thermal specs, but differ in voltage ratings: JAN1N6643US/TR has VBR = 75 V and VRWM = 50 V, while JAN1N6642US/TR offers VBR = 100 V and VRWM = 75 V. Both are JAN-qualified per MIL-PRF-19500/578, but JAN1N6643US/TR targets 50 V-class signal paths, whereas JAN1N6642US/TR suits higher-voltage applications.
Can JAN1N6643US/TR replace 1N4148UR in military designs?
JAN1N6643US/TR is explicitly listed as a replacement for 1N4148UR in the T4-LDS-0218-1 datasheet, but only in applications requiring MIL-PRF-19500/578 qualification. While 1N4148UR offers faster trr (4.0 ns), it lacks JAN-level screening, temperature range (–65 °C to +175 °C), and hermetic sealing. For military designs, JAN1N6643US/TR provides guaranteed reliability where 1N4148UR cannot be used - making JAN1N6643US/TR the qualified drop-in alternative when environmental rigor is mandated.
