scope:

This specification covers the detail requirements for 500 watt and 1,500 watt peak pulse power transient voltage suppressor diodes. Four levels of product assurance are provided for each device type as specified in MIL-S-19500. Two levels of product assurance are provided for die. The suffix "A" denotes a five percent voltage tolerance.

See 3.3.

Maximum ratings are as shown in columns 4, 6, and 7 of table II herein and as follows:

P_R = 2 W (for 500 W peak pulse power devices) and 3 W (for 1,500 W peak pulse power devices) at T_A = +25°C (see figure 5 for derating).

P_R = 3 W (for 500 W peak pulse power devices) and 5 W (for 1,500 W peak pulse power devices) at T_L = +75°C for L = 0.375 inch (9.53 mm) (see figure 6).

P_PR = 500 W (1N6102 through 1N6137 (including A and US suffix versions) and 1,500 W (1N6138 through 1N6173 (including A and US suffix versions)) at t_p = 1 ms (see figure 7).

−55°C ≤ T_op ≤ +175°C, −55°C ≤ T_STG ≤ +175°C (ambient temperatures)
