Product details
Overview
JANS1N6145AUS/TR from Microsemi is a hermetically sealed, voidless, bidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/516 at JANS reliability level. It features a 9.9 V working standoff voltage (VWM), 12.35 V minimum breakdown voltage (V(BR)) at 100 mA, 18.2 V clamping voltage (VC) at 82.4 A peak pulse current (IPP), and 1500 W peak pulse power for 10/1000 µs waveform - deployed in high-reliability military avionics power rail protection.
For engineers reviewing the JANS1N6145AUS/TR datasheet, JANS1N6145AUS/TR pinout, JANS1N6145AUS/TR application, or JANS1N6145AUS/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its JANS-level qualification, bidirectional clamping behavior, glass-body thermal resistance (5.0 °C/W), and compatibility with MIL-STD-750 ESD testing and IEC61000-4-5 lightning surge immunity.
Technical Context
This TVS operates as a voltage-clamped shunt protector with symmetrical bidirectional conduction - no polarity marking required. Its hard-glass construction uses internal Category 1 metallurgical bonds and triple-layer passivation to ensure radiation hardness per MicroNote 050 and immunity to MIL-STD-750 Method 1020 ESD stress.
It delivers 1500 W peak pulse power under 10/1000 µs waveform while maintaining 5.0 µA standby current at VWM and 20 µA maximum ID at 9.9 V. Thermal derating begins linearly above 150 °C end-cap temperature, reaching zero power at 175 °C junction temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

| V(BR) min | 12.35 V @ 100 mA - guaranteed breakdown threshold defining turn-on precision |
| VC @ IPP | 18.2 V @ 82.4 A - clamped voltage during 10/1000 µs surge, limiting downstream voltage stress |
| PPP | 1500 W - peak transient energy absorption capacity without failure |
| TJ range | –55 °C to +175 °C - operational junction temperature span for space-grade deployment |
| RθJEC | 5.0 °C/W - thermal resistance from junction to end cap, critical for pulsed-power thermal design |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar TVS protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| JANTXV1N6145AUS | Same electrical specs but JANTXV qualification level; lower screening rigor than JANS (no radiation hardness verification) | Suitable for ground-based military systems where total ionizing dose (TID) exposure is negligible | Select when cost and lead time are prioritized over space-grade radiation tolerance |
| 1N6145AUS (commercial) | Identical VWM, V(BR), VC, and PPP; not MIL-qualified; RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating available | Applicable only in non-military industrial environments with ambient temperature <125 °C | Choose for prototyping or commercial aerospace subsystems requiring rapid procurement and RoHS compliance |
Compared with JANS1N6145AUS/TR, JANTXV1N6145AUS offers reduced screening cost and faster availability but lacks verified radiation hardness; 1N6145AUS provides identical clamping performance at lower price and RoHS option, yet excludes JANS environmental and reliability validation required for flight hardware.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of JANS1N6145AUS/TR at its rated peak pulse current?
JANS1N6145AUS/TR has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 18.2 V when subjected to its rated 82.4 A peak pulse current (IPP) under the standard 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is measured per MIL-PRF-19500/516 test conditions and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during surge events.
Is JANS1N6145AUS/TR suitable for bidirectional signal line protection?
Yes, JANS1N6145AUS/TR is a bidirectional TVS with no polarity marking, making it suitable for protecting AC-coupled or floating differential signal lines such as MIL-STD-1553B, RS-422, or isolated sensor outputs. Its symmetrical breakdown ensures equal clamping in both directions without requiring orientation-specific placement.
Does JANS1N6145AUS/TR meet radiation hardness requirements for space applications?
Yes, JANS1N6145AUS/TR is inherently radiation hard per Microsemi MicroNote 050 and qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/516 JANS level, which includes radiation testing protocols. Its hard-glass construction and Category 1 metallurgical bonds ensure functionality after total ionizing dose (TID) exposure typical in low-Earth and geosynchronous orbits.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to end cap for JANS1N6145AUS/TR?
The thermal resistance from junction to end cap (RθJEC) for JANS1N6145AUS/TR is 5.0 °C/W. This parameter governs how effectively heat generated during transient clamping is conducted out through the end caps into the PCB, directly impacting safe repetition rate and sustained surge handling capability.
How does the "A" suffix in JANS1N6145AUS/TR affect its electrical specifications?
The "A" suffix in JANS1N6145AUS/TR denotes tighter voltage tolerances: it specifies minimum breakdown voltage (V(BR)) and maximum clamping voltage (VC) without the ±5% variation applied to non-A versions. For JANS1N6145AUS/TR, this means guaranteed V(BR) ≥12.35 V and VC ≤18.2 V - critical for deterministic system-level surge margin analysis.
