JAN1N6053A Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The JAN1N6053A is a bidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode manufactured by Microchip Technology, classified as a military-grade component under MIL-PRF-19500/507 qualification. This through-hole device operates in the 33V reverse standoff voltage range with a 53.9V maximum clamping voltage and 28A peak pulse current rating. The component is designed for general-purpose transient voltage suppression applications requiring reliable overvoltage protection in harsh operating environments. Identification of equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to address inventory availability, supply chain continuity, and application-specific compliance requirements while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the JAN1N6053A is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical electrical and mechanical parameters:

Electrical Equivalence Criteria:

• Voltage - Reverse Standoff (Typ): 33V
• Voltage - Breakdown (Min): 37.1V
• Voltage - Clamping (Max) @ Ipp: 53.9V
• Current - Peak Pulse (10/1000µs): 28A
• Power - Peak Pulse: 1500W
• Bidirectional Channels: 1
• Type: Zener

Mechanical Equivalence Criteria:

• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Package / Case: DO-13 (DO-202AA)

Product Status Criteria:

• Active product status required for substitution eligibility

Substitute parts must satisfy all electrical parameters within the specified tolerances and maintain identical mechanical form factor and mounting characteristics. The 1N6053A from Solid State Inc. meets these substitution requirements.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

JAN1N6053A (Microchip Technology): This component is qualified under MIL-PRF-19500/507 military specification and carries military-grade designation. The device is RoHS non-compliant and maintains active product status. Selection of this part is appropriate for applications requiring military qualification and established supply chain documentation. Current inventory: 862 pieces.

1N6053A (Solid State Inc.): This substitute part maintains full electrical and mechanical equivalence to the JAN1N6053A across all critical parameters. The device is RoHS3 compliant, addressing modern environmental compliance requirements. Product status is active. The REACH status is listed as vendor undefined. Current inventory: 857 pieces.

Selection Basis:

• Both parts satisfy identical electrical performance specifications
• Both parts utilize identical mechanical form factor (DO-13 through-hole package)
• Selection between these parts depends on compliance requirements: military qualification (Microchip) versus RoHS3 compliance (Solid State Inc.)
• Inventory availability is comparable between both suppliers

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1N6053A from Solid State Inc. directly replace the JAN1N6053A from Microchip Technology?

A: Yes. The 1N6053A meets all electrical parameter requirements (33V reverse standoff, 37.1V breakdown minimum, 53.9V clamping maximum, 28A peak pulse current, 1500W peak power) and maintains identical mechanical specifications (DO-13 through-hole package). Both devices are active products with equivalent bidirectional zener TVS functionality.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are manufacturer identity, RoHS compliance status, and military qualification. The JAN1N6053A carries MIL-PRF-19500/507 military qualification and is RoHS non-compliant. The 1N6053A is RoHS3 compliant with vendor-undefined REACH status. Electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Are there any package or pinout differences?

A: No. Both parts use the DO-13 (DO-202AA) axial through-hole package with identical mechanical form factor and pin configuration. Direct board-level substitution is supported without layout modifications.

Q: Which part should be selected for military applications?

A: The JAN1N6053A from Microchip Technology is qualified under MIL-PRF-19500/507 and carries military-grade designation, making it the appropriate selection for applications requiring military specification compliance and qualification documentation.

Q: Which part should be selected for commercial applications with environmental compliance requirements?

A: The 1N6053A from Solid State Inc. is RoHS3 compliant and addresses modern environmental and regulatory compliance requirements for commercial applications.

Q: Are the electrical performance characteristics identical?

A: Yes. Both parts are specified with identical voltage ratings (33V reverse standoff, 37.1V breakdown minimum, 53.9V clamping maximum), current ratings (28A peak pulse), and power dissipation (1500W peak pulse). Electrical performance is equivalent across all provided specifications.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for these devices?

A: The JAN1N6053A is specified for -55°C to 175°C junction temperature operation. Operating temperature range for the 1N6053A substitute is not provided in the available specifications.
