STMicroelectronics 1-Element Uni-Directional TVS Diode Through Hole, DO-15 Package, 600 W Peak Pulse Power P6KE15A

STMicroelectronics P6KE15A is a 1-element uni-directional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode specifically designed to protect sensitive semiconductor devices from high-energy transient voltage spikes. This diode supports peak pulse power dissipation of 600 W, providing robust surge protection in various electronic circuits.

Housed in a compact DO-15 axial through-hole package with 2 pins, this TVS diode is ideal for applications requiring reliable transient overvoltage protection while maintaining a minimal footprint. The device operates effectively within a broad temperature range from -65°C to 175°C, ensuring durability in harsh industrial conditions.

The P6KE15A features a minimum breakdown voltage of 14.3 V and a clamping voltage of 27.2 V, which limits voltage surges and protects circuit components. Its maximum peak pulse current rating of 147 A provides robust capability against transient surges. Additionally, the maximum reverse stand-off voltage of 12.8 V aids in preventing false triggering under normal operating conditions.

The low maximum reverse leakage current of only 1 μA ensures minimal power loss and improved energy efficiency in steady-state operation. This diode does not carry automotive certifications and is thus suited primarily for industrial, commercial, and consumer electronic equipment protection applications.

Key industrial use cases include electronic component protection in power supplies, communication equipment, instrumentation, and consumer electronics where transient voltage events may cause damage. The durable operating range and peak pulse power rating make it a reliable choice for circuit designers prioritizing transient voltage suppression.
