Product details
Overview
JANS1N6145US/TR from Microsemi is a hermetically sealed, voidless, bidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/516 at JANS level for space-grade reliability. 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 (10/1000 µs). It is used in radiation-hardened avionics power bus protection.
For engineers reviewing the JANS1N6145US/TR datasheet, JANS1N6145US/TR pinout, JANS1N6145US/TR application, or JANS1N6145US/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include military-grade surge robustness, hermetic glass package integrity, bidirectional clamping symmetry, and compliance with IEC61000-4-2/4-4/4-5 for ESD, EFT, and lightning-induced transients.
Technical Context
This TVS operates as a bidirectional voltage-clamping device with no polarity marking, relying on symmetrical avalanche breakdown in both directions. Its hard-glass construction with tungsten slugs and Category 1 metallurgical bonds ensures mechanical stability under thermal cycling and vibration.
It delivers 1500 W peak pulse power for 10/1000 µs waveforms at 25 °C, with linear derating above 150 °C junction temperature and thermal resistance of 5.0 °C/W from junction to end cap. Standby current is ≤20 µA at 9.9 V VWM.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM | 9.9 V - Maximum continuous reverse/forward voltage before conduction begins; defines safe operating margin below clamping threshold. |
| V(BR) min | 12.35 V @ 100 mA - Minimum voltage at which avalanche breakdown initiates; ensures predictable turn-on under surge conditions. |
| VC @ IPP | 18.2 V @ 82.4 A - Clamped voltage during 10/1000 µs transient; determines maximum stress imposed on protected downstream circuitry. |
| PPP | 1500 W - Peak impulse power handling capability; enables suppression of high-energy transients without failure. |
| TJ range | –55 °C to +175 °C - Full military temperature range; supports operation in extreme environments including space and jet engine bays. |
| RθJEC | 5.0 °C/W - Junction-to-end-cap thermal resistance; critical for calculating temperature rise under sustained power dissipation. |
| αV(BR) | 0.08 %/°C - Temperature coefficient of breakdown voltage; enables accurate V(BR) prediction across operating temperature range. |

Applications
| Aerospace Power Distribution | Missile Guidance Signal Integrity |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protection of 28 V DC bus in satellite power management units exposed to load dump and switching transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional TVS clamping device placed across bus rails to limit voltage excursions during fault events. Use Value: Maintains bus voltage ≤18.2 V during 1500 W transients, preventing latch-up or burnout in downstream DC-DC converters and FPGAs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| JANTXV1N6145US | Same electrical specs but qualified to JANTXV level (lower screening rigor than JANS); no radiation hardness documentation provided. | Approved for ground-based military systems but not certified for spaceflight or total ionizing dose (TID) environments. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs radiation tolerance requirements and mission lifetime is <5 years. |
| 1N6145AUS (commercial) | Identical VWM, V(BR), VC, and PPP ratings; RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating available; no MIL-PRF-19500 qualification or traceability. | Limited to non-safety-critical commercial aerospace prototypes or ground-test fixtures where full qualification is deferred. | Use only for bench validation or early-stage design exploration-not for flight hardware or production deployment. |
Compared with JANS1N6145US/TR, JANTXV1N6145US offers reduced test coverage and no radiation assurance, while 1N6145AUS omits all military screening and traceability-making JANS1N6145US/TR the sole choice for flight-critical, radiation-exposed, or long-duration space applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of JANS1N6145US/TR under a 10/1000 µs transient?
The JANS1N6145US/TR has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 18.2 V when subjected to its rated peak pulse current of 82.4 A under a 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is guaranteed per Microsemi T4-LDS-0278-1 Rev. 2 and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during surge events. The JANS1N6145US/TR maintains this clamping performance across its full –55 °C to +175 °C operating range with specified derating.
Is JANS1N6145US/TR suitable for bidirectional signal line protection?
Yes, JANS1N6145US/TR is inherently bidirectional with symmetrical avalanche characteristics in both polarities, making it ideal for protecting AC-coupled, floating, or differential signal lines such as RS-422, MIL-STD-1553, or LVDS interfaces. Its lack of polarity marking simplifies layout and eliminates orientation errors during placement. The JANS1N6145US/TR achieves matched clamping in both directions without performance degradation.
Does JANS1N6145US/TR meet radiation hardness requirements for space applications?
Yes, JANS1N6145US/TR is qualified to JANS level per MIL-PRF-19500/516 and documented as inherently radiation hard per Microsemi MicroNote 050. It is screened for total ionizing dose (TID) tolerance and single-event effects (SEE) resilience appropriate for low-earth orbit and geosynchronous missions. Radiation assurance data for JANS1N6145US/TR is available under controlled distribution from Microchip Technology.
What is the thermal resistance specification for JANS1N6145US/TR?
JANS1N6145US/TR has a thermal resistance of 5.0 °C/W from junction to end cap (RθJEC), measured per standard test conditions. This parameter enables accurate junction temperature calculation during pulsed or steady-state power dissipation. For JANS1N6145US/TR, thermal design must account for mounting interface quality, as end-cap conduction dominates heat transfer-PCB copper area alone is insufficient without direct thermal pad contact.
Can JANS1N6145US/TR replace JANTXV1N6145US in an existing design?
JANS1N6145US/TR is electrically identical to JANTXV1N6145US but exceeds its qualification level with full JANS screening, radiation hardness documentation, and extended traceability. Substitution is permitted and improves reliability-but requires revalidation of procurement documentation, lot traceability, and radiation test reports. The JANS1N6145US/TR does not require PCB changes, though program-level configuration control updates are mandatory.
