Product details
Overview
JANTX1N5615US from Microsemi is a military-qualified, hermetically sealed fast recovery glass rectifier diode rated for 1.0 A average forward current, 200 V working peak reverse voltage (VRWM), and 45 ns reverse recovery time (trr). It features voidless-glass construction with Category I metallurgical bonds, operates from –65 °C to +175 °C, and is used in high-reliability power conversion stages of aerospace avionics and radiation-hardened satellite power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the JANTX1N5615US datasheet, JANTX1N5615US pinout, JANTX1N5615US application, or JANTX1N5615US equivalent, key selection criteria include its MIL-PRF-19500/429 qualification, 30 A surge rating at 8.3 ms, 0.75 V max forward voltage at 3 A, hermetic glass package (D-5A), and controlled avalanche capability under transient reverse stress.
Technical Context
This device belongs to Microsemi's surface-mount fast recovery rectifier family qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/429 Class JANTX. Its voidless hermetic glass construction ensures zero internal delamination risk, while triple-layer passivation and Category I metallurgical bonding provide robust interfacial integrity under thermal cycling and mechanical shock.
The JANTX1N5615US delivers 45 ns reverse recovery time at IF = 0.5 A / IRM = 1 A / IR(REC) = 0.25 A, enabling efficient operation in 50–60 Hz line-frequency and moderate-frequency switching applications. Its 13 °C/W junction-to-end-cap thermal resistance supports stable operation up to 175 °C junction temperature without forced cooling.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fast recovery rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| JANTXV1N5615US | Higher screening level (JANTXV vs JANTX); tighter VBR (220–242 V vs 220 V min); same VRWM, trr, and package | Required for programs specifying MIL-PRF-19500/429 Class JANTXV; suitable where enhanced parametric consistency is mandated | Select JANTXV1N5615US when full burn-in, life test, and radiation lot acceptance testing are contractually required. |
| 1N5615US | Commercial-grade version; no MIL-PRF-19500/429 qualification; identical electrical specs and D-5A package | Applicable in non-military industrial systems where cost sensitivity outweighs long-term reliability assurance | Choose 1N5615US only for prototyping or commercial-grade subsystems not subject to DoD or NASA reliability mandates. |
Compared with JANTX1N5615US, JANTXV1N5615US adds rigorous screening for mission-critical timing stability and parameter uniformity, while 1N5615US omits military screening but retains identical performance-making both viable alternatives depending on program-level qualification requirements.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for JANTX1N5615US?
The JANTX1N5615US has a specified junction and storage temperature range of –65 °C to +175 °C. This wide operating envelope enables use in engine-mounted avionics and downhole oilfield tools where ambient temperatures exceed 125 °C. The 13 °C/W thermal resistance from junction to end cap allows direct mounting to thermally conductive chassis surfaces without additional heatsinking in most applications.
Does JANTX1N5615US have a cathode band marking?
Yes, JANTX1N5615US uses a single cathode band marking on the glass body to indicate polarity. This band aligns with industry-standard orientation for D-5A package devices and must be oriented toward the negative output node in bridge or half-wave rectifier layouts. No anode marking is present-only the cathode band is applied per Microsemi SD47A specification.
Is JANTX1N5615US compatible with lead-free reflow soldering?
No, JANTX1N5615US is not compatible with lead-free reflow processes. Its terminations use Sn/Pb finish, and the maximum solder temperature is specified as 260 °C for 10 seconds-below typical lead-free reflow peak temperatures (≥260 °C sustained). Use only with Sn63/Pb37 solder paste and conventional eutectic reflow profiles to avoid end-cap delamination or glass cracking.
What does "Category I metallurgical bond" mean for JANTX1N5615US?
"Category I metallurgical bond" refers to a high-strength, diffusion-bonded interface between the silicon die and tungsten slug, tested per MIL-STD-750 Method 2035 to ≥125 MPa shear strength. For JANTX1N5615US, this ensures mechanical integrity during thermal cycling from –65 °C to +175 °C and prevents interfacial failure under vibration or shock-critical for launch vehicle and missile guidance systems.
Can JANTX1N5615US be used in place of axial-leaded 1N5615 in existing designs?
JANTX1N5615US is not a direct replacement for axial-leaded 1N5615 due to different package geometry (D-5A surface mount vs DO-41 through-hole), thermal path, and mounting method. While electrical parameters match, PCB layout, thermal management, and mechanical retention differ significantly. Migration requires redesign of pad layout, reflow profile, and mechanical stress analysis per IPC-7351B.
