Product details
Overview
MV1N8182US/TR from Microsemi is a voidless-hermetically-sealed unidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) designed for high-reliability, high-frequency signal line protection. It delivers 150 W peak pulse power at 10/1000 µs, features 4 pF capacitance, and has a 150 V working standoff voltage (VWM) with 261 V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 300 A IPP.
For engineers reviewing the MV1N8182US/TR datasheet, MV1N8182US/TR pinout, MV1N8182US/TR application, or MV1N8182US/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include low-capacitance ESD/EFT protection per IEC61000-4-2/4-4, Category 1 metallurgical bonding for radiation-hardened environments, and axial-leaded through-hole mounting compatibility with MIL-STD-750 ESD robustness.
Technical Context
This TVS employs a unique series-connected rectifier diode in anti-parallel configuration to achieve ultra-low 4 pF capacitance while maintaining unidirectional surge suppression. Its hard-glass hermetic package enables operation from –55 °C to +175 °C junction temperature, with thermal resistance of 150 °C/W.
The device operates with 0.5 µA standby current at 150 V VWM and exhibits a 0.108 %/°C breakdown voltage temperature coefficient. It meets secondary lightning protection per select IEC61000-4-5 levels and supports ESD immunity per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM | 150 V - Maximum continuous reverse standoff voltage before conduction begins; defines operating voltage margin for protected circuits. |
| VC @ IPP | 261 V @ 300 A - Clamping voltage during 10/1000 µs surge; limits transient energy delivered to downstream ICs. |
| PPP | 150 W - Peak pulse power rating at 25 °C; determines survivability under standardized lightning/surge waveforms. |
| CT | 4 pF - Total capacitance at 0 V; enables use on >1 GHz RF lines and high-speed data interfaces without signal degradation. |
| ID | 0.5 µA - Standby leakage at rated VWM; ensures minimal DC loading on sensitive analog or reference nodes. |
| TJ Range | –55 to +175 °C - Junction temperature range; supports deployment in aerospace, downhole, and military embedded systems. |
| αV(BR) | 0.108 %/°C - Breakdown voltage drift with temperature; critical for precision overtemperature design margins. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMCJ150A | Surface-mount SMC package; 4.5 pF capacitance; 1500 W PPP rating but higher VC (243 V @ 6.5 A). | Designed for automated SMT assembly; lower surge current density per unit area than axial-leaded MV1N8182US/TR. | Select for high-volume PCBs requiring reflow compatibility and smaller footprint; not suitable for high-temperature through-hole chassis mounts. |
| 1N6330 | Axial-leaded, same 150 V VWM, but 100 W PPP rating and 12 pF capacitance; non-hermetic epoxy package. | Lacks Category 1 bonding and radiation hardness; limited to commercial-temperature industrial use. | Choose for cost-sensitive non-mission-critical applications where 4 pF and –55 °C operation are not required. |
Compared with SMCJ150A and 1N6330, the MV1N8182US/TR uniquely combines hermetic reliability, ultra-low capacitance, and extended temperature capability-making it irreplaceable in aerospace RF front-ends and downhole telemetry where parameter drift or seal failure is unacceptable.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of MV1N8182US/TR at its rated peak impulse current?
The MV1N8182US/TR has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 261 V when subjected to its rated peak impulse current (IPP) of 300 A under the standard 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is guaranteed per the manufacturer's electrical characteristics table and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during surge events. The MV1N8182US/TR maintains this clamping performance across its full operating temperature range.
Is MV1N8182US/TR suitable for bidirectional transient protection?
No, MV1N8182US/TR is a unidirectional TVS diode. For bidirectional protection, two MV1N8182US/TR devices must be connected in anti-parallel configuration, as documented in Figure 5 of the datasheet. This arrangement doubles the effective capacitance to 8 pF but provides symmetrical clamping in both polarities-required for AC-coupled or floating signal lines.
Does MV1N8182US/TR meet RoHS compliance requirements?
Yes, MV1N8182US/TR is RoHS compliant, indicated by the "e3" suffix in its full nomenclature. Its axial leads feature matte tin plating over copper, and the hermetic glass package contains no lead or other restricted substances above EU RoHS thresholds. Full compliance documentation is available upon request from Aetrix Electronics.
What is the maximum steady-state power dissipation for MV1N8182US/TR at room temperature?
The MV1N8182US/TR has a maximum steady-state (average) power dissipation of 1.0 W at ambient temperature (TA) of 25 °C. This rating assumes adequate PCB thermal management to maintain junction temperature within the –55 to +175 °C range. Derating is required above 25 °C, following the curve in Figure 3 of the datasheet.
How does the Category 1 metallurgical bond in MV1N8182US/TR improve reliability?
The Category 1 metallurgical bond in MV1N8182US/TR refers to a qualified internal interconnect process meeting MIL-PRF-19500 stress-test requirements-including thermal shock, mechanical vibration, and humidity exposure. This bond eliminates interfacial voids and ensures long-term adhesion integrity under extreme environmental stress, directly enabling MV1N8182US/TR qualification for JANTXV-level reliability programs.
