Product details
Overview
JANTX1N6150US/TR from Microsemi is a voidless hermetically sealed surface-mount bidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/516 at JANTX reliability level. It provides 16.7 V working standoff voltage (VWM), 20.9 V minimum breakdown voltage (V(BR)), and clamps transients to 30.5 V at 49.2 A peak pulse current (IPP) with 1500 W peak pulse power for 10/1000 µs waveform - deployed in avionics power bus protection.
For engineers reviewing the JANTX1N6150US/TR datasheet, JANTX1N6150US/TR pinout, JANTX1N6150US/TR application, or JANTX1N6150US/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its military-grade hermetic glass package, Category 1 metallurgical bonds, IEC61000-4-2/4-4/4-5 compliance, and precise 16.7 V standoff threshold for high-reliability DC rail clamping.
Technical Context
This TVS operates bidirectionally without polarity marking and uses hard-glass construction with tungsten slugs for thermal robustness. Its internal Category 1 metallurgical bonds ensure mechanical integrity under shock/vibration, while triple-layer passivation enhances surface stability in humid or contaminated environments.
The device delivers 1500 W peak pulse power at 25 °C with linear derating above 150 °C junction temperature and exhibits a low 0.085 %/°C temperature coefficient of breakdown voltage - critical for stable clamping across extended military temperature ranges (-55 to +175 °C).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM | 16.7 V - maximum continuous DC or repetitive peak voltage the device blocks without conduction |
| V(BR) min | 20.9 V @ 50 mA - guaranteed minimum voltage at which avalanche breakdown initiates |
| VC @ IPP | 30.5 V @ 49.2 A - clamping voltage during 10/1000 µs transient, defining worst-case rail excursion |
| PPP | 1500 W - peak impulse power handling capability, enabling protection against lightning-induced surges |
| ID @ VWM | 5 µA - leakage current at rated standoff, ensuring minimal power loss in standby |
| αV(BR) | 0.085 %/°C - temperature drift rate of breakdown voltage, supporting stable operation from -55 to +175 °C |
Pinout & Package
Package: SQ-MELF (C-package variant), hermetically sealed voidless hard glass with tin/lead-plated copper terminals; dimensions: BD = 0.183–0.202 in (4.65–5.13 mm), BL = 0.205–0.245 in (5.21–6.22 mm); weight ≈ 1100 mg.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode/Cathode | Bidirectional terminal pair | No polarity marking - either end functions identically as cathode or anode depending on transient polarity |
| End Cap | Thermal interface | Direct thermal path to PCB pad; RθJEC = 5.0 °C/W enables efficient heat dissipation during surge events |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Bidirectional clamping | Enables symmetric transient suppression on AC lines or ungrounded DC rails without orientation constraints |
| Category 1 metallurgical bonds | Guarantees bond integrity under MIL-STD-883 mechanical stress, eliminating wire-bond failure modes |
| Voidless hermetic seal | Prevents moisture ingress and corrosion over 20+ year field life in sealed avionics enclosures |
| IEC61000-4-5 compliance | Validated protection against lightning-induced surges up to select test levels (e.g., 2 kV line-earth) |
Applications
| Aerospace Power Distribution | Ground Vehicle Control Systems |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protection of 28 V DC main bus in UAV flight computers against load dump and ESD events. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional TVS clamping element placed directly across bus rails before DC-DC converters. Use Value: Limits transient excursions to ≤30.5 V, preserving downstream 3.3 V/5 V logic supply integrity during MIL-STD-461G CS115 pulses. | Use Scenario: Surge suppression on CAN FD data lines in armored vehicle engine control units exposed to ignition noise. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-capacitance TVS shunting common-mode transients between CANH/CANL and chassis ground. Use Value: Maintains signal integrity by clamping <100 ns spikes to <30.5 V without distorting 5 Mbps CAN FD waveforms. |
| Tactical Radio Front-Ends | Military Sensor Interface Modules |
Use Scenario: Input protection for RF power amplifier bias rails in manpack radios subjected to antenna-coupled EMP. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standoff-rated TVS placed at DC feed-through point to PA collector supply. Use Value: Absorbs 1500 W surges within 10/1000 µs while maintaining 16.7 V nominal rail - preventing latch-up in GaN HEMT drivers. | Use Scenario: ESD hardening of analog sensor inputs (e.g., thermocouple, strain gauge) in battlefield-deployed environmental monitors. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-leakage (5 µA) TVS connected between signal line and reference ground. Use Value: Prevents sensor offset drift caused by IEC61000-4-2 ±8 kV contact discharge without loading microvolt-level signals. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N6150US/TR (commercial) | No MIL qualification; same electrical specs but no JANTX screening or hermeticity verification | Suitable only for non-mission-critical industrial use; not rated for -55 °C operation or radiation environments | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs reliability requirements and full MIL-PRF-19500/516 traceability is unnecessary |
| JANTXV1N6150US | Higher screening level (JANTXV) with extended burn-in, 100% parametric testing, and tighter VC tolerance (±5% vs ±10%) | Required for space-qualified systems or nuclear-hardened platforms where single-event burnout risk must be minimized | Choose when system-level radiation hardness or zero-defect field performance is mandated per DoD contracts |
Compared with JANTX1N6150US/TR, the commercial 1N6150US/TR lacks military screening and hermetic validation, while JANTXV1N6150US adds process controls for extreme environment resilience - making JANTX1N6150US/TR the optimal balance of proven reliability and procurement availability for defense electronics.

The 1N6138AUS–1N6173AUS series was developed specifically for MIL-PRF-19500/516-compliant transient suppression in mission-critical platforms where hermetic sealing, Category 1 bonding, and deterministic clamping behavior are non-negotiable.
FAQ
What is the working standoff voltage (VWM) of JANTX1N6150US/TR?
The JANTX1N6150US/TR has a rated working standoff voltage (VWM) of 16.7 V, meaning it remains in high-impedance state and blocks conduction up to this DC or repetitive peak voltage under standard operating conditions. This value is verified per MIL-PRF-19500/516 test methods and defines the maximum continuous bus voltage the JANTX1N6150US/TR can protect without leakage exceeding 5 µA.
Is JANTX1N6150US/TR RoHS compliant?
No, JANTX1N6150US/TR is not RoHS compliant. Per the datasheet nomenclature, the "e3" RoHS suffix applies only to commercial-grade versions; JANTX-level parts retain tin/lead plating for enhanced solder joint reliability and thermal fatigue resistance required in military applications. The JANTX1N6150US/TR uses standard SnPb terminations per MIL-STD-1276.
What package type does JANTX1N6150US/TR use?
JANTX1N6150US/TR uses the SQ-MELF (C-package) form factor - a voidless hermetically sealed hard-glass surface-mount package with square-end-cap terminals. Dimensions are BD = 0.183–0.202 in and BL = 0.205–0.245 in; it is distinct from axial-leaded variants like 1N6150 and requires specific reflow profile validation due to thermal mass.
How does JANTX1N6150US/TR differ from JANTXV1N6150US?
JANTX1N6150US/TR is qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/516 at JANTX level, while JANTXV1N6150US undergoes additional screening including extended burn-in, 100% parametric testing, and tighter clamping voltage tolerance (±5%). The JANTX1N6150US/TR meets baseline military reliability but lacks the zero-defect assurance required for spaceflight or nuclear-hardened systems where JANTXV1N6150US is mandated.
Can JANTX1N6150US/TR be used in bidirectional AC circuits?
Yes, JANTX1N6150US/TR is inherently bidirectional and requires no polarity marking - both terminals function identically as anode or cathode depending on transient polarity. It is routinely applied across AC-coupled signal lines, transformer secondaries, and ungrounded DC buses where voltage reversals occur, with clamping symmetry validated per IEC61000-4-5 testing at ±30.5 V.
