1N6144A Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The 1N6144A is a bidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode from Semtech, part of the 1N6138A-1N6173A series. It is designed to protect sensitive electronic circuits from voltage transients induced by lightning, electrostatic discharge (ESD), and electrical fast transients (EFT).

 

Key electrical specifications include a clamping voltage of 16.9V, a peak pulse current of 88.8A, and a peak pulse power rating of 1500W for a 10/1000 μs pulse. The device is bidirectional with a single channel and does not provide power line protection.

 

The 1N6144A is housed in a voidless hermetically sealed glass axial package with tungsten slugs, suitable for through-hole mounting. It operates over a junction temperature range of -55°C to 175°C. The device is inherently radiation hard and offers ESD protection per IEC 61000-4-2, EFT protection per IEC 61000-4-4, and lightning protection per IEC 61000-4-5. Military qualified versions (JAN, JANTX, JANTXV, JANS) are available per MIL-PRF-19500/516.
