Product details
Overview
JANTXV1N5649A from Microchip (formerly Microsemi) is a hermetically sealed, unidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode in DO-13 metal-glass package, designed for high-reliability military and aerospace surge protection. It features 42.3 V minimum breakdown voltage (VBR), 38.1 V rated standoff voltage (VWM), 67.8 V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 22.2 A peak pulse current (IPP), and 1500 W peak pulse power rating per 10/1000 µs waveform - deployed in avionics power rails and I/O interfaces subject to IEC61000-4-2/4-4/4-5 transients.
For engineers reviewing the JANTXV1N5649A datasheet, JANTXV1N5649A pinout, JANTXV1N5649A application, or JANTXV1N5649A equivalent, key selection criteria include its MIL-PRF-19500/500 JANTXV qualification, hermetic DO-13 package, sub-100 ps response time, -55°C to +175°C operating range, and secondary lightning protection capability with 42 Ω source impedance up to Class 4 per IEC61000-4-5.
Technical Context
The JANTXV1N5649A operates as a unidirectional avalanche diode, entering controlled breakdown when reverse voltage exceeds VWM (38.1 V), clamping transient energy within <100 ps. Its thermal resistance is 50°C/W junction-to-lead at 10 mm lead length, enabling robust surge handling without thermal runaway under repetitive low-duty-cycle pulses.
It complies with MIL-PRF-19500/500 Class V requirements, including radiation hardness per MicroNote 050, and is rated for 200 A forward surge current (8.3 ms half-sine) - confirming suitability for high-energy inductive switching environments such as aircraft generator control units and flight control actuator drivers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM | 38.1 V - Maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before conduction begins; sets minimum system rail margin for reliable standby operation. |
| VBR @ IBR | 42.3–44.7 V @ 1 mA - Breakdown onset threshold; ensures predictable turn-on during fast transients without premature leakage. |
| VC @ IPP | 67.8 V @ 22.2 A - Clamped voltage during 10/1000 µs surge; defines worst-case overvoltage seen by protected downstream ICs. |
| PPP | 1500 W - Peak pulse power handling capacity; supports single-event surges up to 22.2 A without failure. |
| TOP/TSTG | -55°C to +175°C - Extended temperature range enables deployment in engine-mounted avionics and power conversion modules. |
| Package | DO-13 (DO-202AA) - Hermetically sealed metal-glass case with cathode-connected case; provides EMI shielding and moisture resistance for harsh environments. |
| Response Time | <100 ps - Enables effective suppression of ESD (IEC61000-4-2) and EFT (IEC61000-4-4) events before sensitive circuitry is damaged. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar unidirectional TVS protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| JANTXV1N5648A | VWM = 34.8 V, VC = 56.4 V @ 26.5 A - lower clamping voltage but reduced standoff margin. | Better for 24 V systems with tighter voltage headroom; less suitable for 28 V nominal rails where 38.1 V VWM prevents false triggering. | Select JANTXV1N5648A only when system max operating voltage is ≤32 V and lower clamping priority outweighs standoff margin. |
| JANTXV1N5650A | VWM = 41.3 V, VC = 73.5 V @ 20.4 A - higher standoff but elevated clamping voltage increases stress on downstream devices. | Appropriate for 36–40 V avionics buses (e.g., auxiliary power units); requires verification that protected ICs tolerate 73.5 V transient overshoot. | Choose JANTXV1N5650A when system nominal voltage exceeds 38 V and clamping margin allows 73.5 V excursion without violating downstream SOA limits. |
Compared with JANTXV1N5649A, JANTXV1N5648A offers lower clamping at the cost of reduced standoff margin, while JANTXV1N5650A extends standoff capability at the expense of higher clamping voltage - making JANTXV1N5649A the optimal balance for standard 28 V aircraft power distribution.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of the JANTXV1N5649A under standard test conditions?
The JANTXV1N5649A has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 67.8 V when subjected to its rated 22.2 A peak pulse current (IPP) using the 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is measured at TA = 25°C and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during a surge event. The JANTXV1N5649A maintains this clamping performance across its full -55°C to +175°C operating range, with minimal derating required due to its low thermal resistance.
Does the JANTXV1N5649A meet MIL-PRF-19500/500 requirements?
Yes, the JANTXV1N5649A is fully qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/500 Class V standards, including screening for burn-in, temperature cycling, mechanical shock, and radiation hardness per MicroNote 050. The "JANTXV" prefix explicitly denotes compliance with these military specifications, and the device is listed in the Qualified Products List (QPL) for transient suppressors. The JANTXV1N5649A retains full traceability to original Microsemi manufacturing and test records.
What is the standoff voltage rating for the JANTXV1N5649A, and how does it relate to system design?
The JANTXV1N5649A has a rated standoff voltage (VWM) of 38.1 V, meaning it remains non-conductive up to this reverse voltage level at 25°C. This value is selected to exceed the maximum continuous operating voltage of 28 V aircraft systems (including ripple and tolerance), ensuring no leakage or false triggering during normal operation. Designers must verify that system peak voltage never exceeds 38.1 V to maintain reliable JANTXV1N5649A functionality without premature conduction.
Can the JANTXV1N5649A be used for IEC61000-4-5 secondary lightning protection?
Yes, the JANTXV1N5649A is validated for secondary lightning protection per IEC61000-4-5 with 42 Ω source impedance up to Class 4, supporting surge levels up to 4 kV. Its 1500 W peak pulse power rating and sub-100 ps response time enable effective clamping of induced surges from nearby lightning strikes in airborne and ground vehicle platforms. The JANTXV1N5649A is commonly deployed in conjunction with series impedance (e.g., 10 Ω resistors) to shape the surge waveform before reaching protected ICs.
What is the thermal resistance specification for the JANTXV1N5649A, and why does it matter?
The JANTXV1N5649A has a junction-to-lead thermal resistance (RθJL) of 50°C/W when measured at 10 mm (0.375 inch) from the case body. This low thermal resistance enables efficient heat transfer from the silicon die to the PCB copper or chassis during high-energy transients, preventing thermal runaway during repetitive surge events. It directly supports the device's 1500 W peak pulse rating and ensures reliability in high-temperature environments like engine bays or sealed avionics enclosures where ambient temperatures reach +125°C.
