Product details
Overview
JANTXV1N6152US/TR from Microsemi is a voidless hermetically sealed bidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/516 at JANTXV level, with 20.6 V working standoff voltage (VWM), 37.4 V clamping voltage (VC) at 40.1 A peak pulse current (IPP), and 1500 W peak pulse power for 10/1000 µs waveform. It serves as primary surge protection in high-reliability military power interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the JANTXV1N6152US/TR datasheet, JANTXV1N6152US/TR pinout, JANTXV1N6152US/TR application, or JANTXV1N6152US/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its MIL-qualified reliability, axial-leaded hard-glass package, bidirectional clamping behavior, and IEC61000-4-2/4-4/4-5 compliance for ESD, EFT, and lightning secondary effects.
Technical Context
This TVS operates bidirectionally with no polarity marking and uses internal Category 1 metallurgical bonds for radiation-hardened, high-reliability performance across –55 °C to +175 °C junction temperature range. Its voidless hermetic glass construction ensures long-term stability under thermal cycling and humidity stress.
The device delivers 1500 W peak pulse power at 25 °C with 20 °C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance, enabling robust transient suppression without thermal runaway during repetitive surges. Standby current remains ≤5 µA at rated VWM, minimizing leakage impact on low-power circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM | 20.6 V - Maximum continuous reverse/forward voltage before clamping begins; sets operating margin for protected circuitry. |
| V(BR) min | 25.7 V @ 50 mA - Minimum breakdown voltage threshold; defines onset of avalanche conduction under surge. |
| VC @ IPP | 37.4 V @ 40.1 A - Clamped voltage during 10/1000 µs surge; determines maximum stress imposed on downstream ICs. |
| PPP | 1500 W - Peak impulse power handling capability; validates survivability against MIL-STD-1275B and DO-160D surge events. |
| ID @ VWM | ≤5 µA - Ultra-low leakage at rated standoff; preserves battery life and signal integrity in always-on systems. |
| TJ Range | –55 °C to +175 °C - Full military temperature operation; supports engine bay, avionics, and space-qualified deployments. |
| RθJL | 20 °C/W - Junction-to-lead thermal resistance; enables accurate thermal design when mounted with 3/8″ lead length. |
Pinout & Package
Package: Axial-leaded "C"-type hard-glass hermetic case with tungsten slugs; weight ≈1270 mg; RoHS non-compliant (JANTXV grade); marking includes body paint and part number.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode/Cathode (bidirectional) | Surge current path | No polarity marking; either terminal accepts positive or negative transients - simplifies PCB layout and eliminates orientation errors. |
| Leads (tin/lead over copper) | Thermal and electrical interface | Provides mechanical mounting and heat conduction path; 3/8″ lead length required for rated RθJL = 20 °C/W. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Bidirectional clamping | Protects AC-coupled and floating-bus systems (e.g., RS-485, MIL-STD-1553) without polarity constraints. |
| Category 1 metallurgical bonds | Ensures >10⁶ thermal cycles reliability and immunity to wire bond fatigue in vibration-prone platforms. |
| Voidless hermetic seal | Prevents moisture ingress and parametric drift over 20+ year service life in sealed enclosures or vacuum environments. |
| MIL-PRF-19500/516 JANTXV qualification | Validates screening, burn-in, and lot traceability per military reliability standards - required for DoD procurement. |
| IEC61000-4-2/4-4/4-5 compliance | Meets Level 4 ESD (±15 kV air), Level 4 EFT (±4 kV), and select lightning surge levels - reduces system-level test failures. |
Applications
| Avionics Power Bus Protection | Military Vehicle DC Distribution |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Protecting 28 V DC power inputs in flight control computers from load dump and alternator spikes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary bidirectional surge clamp placed upstream of DC/DC converters and PMICs. Use Value: Limits transient voltage to ≤37.4 V during 10/1000 µs surges, preventing latch-up or gate oxide damage in downstream silicon. |
Use Scenario: Safeguarding communication modules in armored vehicle electronics against ignition noise and EMP coupling. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Front-end TVS on CAN and MIL-STD-1553 data lines and power rails. Use Value: Withstands ≥40 A peak pulses while maintaining <5 µA leakage - avoids false resets in mission-critical comms. |
| Spacecraft Payload Power Conditioning | Naval Radar Signal Chain Inputs |
|
Use Scenario: Shielding FPGA-based payload controllers from solar array switching transients in LEO missions. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Radiation-tolerant transient suppressor on unregulated 28 V bus feeding DC/DC stages. Use Value: Inherent radiation hardness per MicroNote 050 and –55 °C to +175 °C operation enable zero derating in orbital thermal vacuum. |
Use Scenario: Guarding RF receiver front-ends and ADC drivers against radar transmitter coupling and lightning-induced surges. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-capacitance (<100 pF typical) bidirectional clamp on analog signal paths. Use Value: Clamps to 37.4 V without distorting nanosecond-scale RF pulses - preserves dynamic range and SNR in wideband receivers. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N6152A | Commercial-grade version; same VWM (20.6 V), VC (37.4 V), and IPP (40.1 A), but not MIL-qualified. | Lacks JANTXV screening, burn-in, and lot traceability; unsuitable for DoD or space programs. | Select only for cost-sensitive ground-test or prototype use where full MIL-PRF-19500/516 compliance is not mandated. |
| JANTXV1N6151US/TR | Lower VWM (18.2 V), lower VC (33.3 V), and higher IPP (45.0 A); otherwise identical package and qualification. | Better suited for 24 V nominal systems requiring tighter clamping margin and higher surge headroom. | Choose when protecting 24 V logic or sensors needing sub-34 V clamping; verify compatibility with existing board layout clearance. |
Compared with JANTXV1N6152US/TR, the 1N6152A offers identical electrical specs but no military screening, while JANTXV1N6151US/TR provides lower clamping voltage and higher surge current at reduced standoff - enabling optimized trade-offs between protection margin and system voltage tolerance.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of JANTXV1N6152US/TR under a 10/1000 µs surge?
The JANTXV1N6152US/TR has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 37.4 V when subjected to its rated 40.1 A peak pulse current (IPP) with a 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is measured per MIL-STD-202 Method 310 and is guaranteed across the full operating temperature range, ensuring predictable protection for downstream 28 V-rated circuitry.
Is JANTXV1N6152US/TR RoHS compliant?
No, JANTXV1N6152US/TR is not RoHS compliant. As a JANTXV-grade military component, it uses tin/lead solder plating on axial leads per MIL-PRF-19500/516 requirements. RoHS-compliant versions (e3 suffix) are available only in commercial-grade variants like 1N6152A, not in JANTXV or JANS configurations.
Does JANTXV1N6152US/TR require polarity-aware PCB layout?
No, JANTXV1N6152US/TR is a bidirectional TVS with no polarity marking. Either axial lead may serve as anode or cathode depending on transient polarity, eliminating orientation constraints during placement and reducing assembly errors in high-mix manufacturing.
What is the maximum steady-state power dissipation of JANTXV1N6152US/TR at 75 °C lead temperature?
JANTXV1N6152US/TR supports 5.0 W of off-state power dissipation at a lead temperature (TL) of 75 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This rating assumes 3/8″ lead length from the package body and is critical for thermal design in conduction-cooled chassis or sealed enclosures.
How does JANTXV1N6152US/TR perform under ESD and lightning surge standards?
JANTXV1N6152US/TR provides validated protection per IEC61000-4-2 (ESD ±15 kV air), IEC61000-4-4 (EFT ±4 kV), and select levels of IEC61000-4-5 (lightning surge). Its 1500 W peak pulse power and low clamping voltage ensure compliance without external filtering, reducing bill-of-materials in ruggedized designs.
