Vishay 1-Element Bi-Directional TVS Diode 600 W, 2-Pin DO-15 P6KE18CA-E3/54

Vishay P6KE18CA-E3/54 is a high-performance 1-Element Bi-Directional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode rated for 600 W peak pulse power dissipation. Packaged in a compact 2-pin DO-15 axial through-hole form factor, it provides effective transient voltage suppression for protecting sensitive electronics from voltage spikes and surges.

This TVS Diode exhibits a minimum breakdown voltage of 17.1 V and clamps voltage at a peak of 25.2 V, offering precise and reliable surge protection for electronic circuits. It supports a broad operating temperature range from -55°C to 175°C, making it robust for industrial, automotive, and commercial use.

The device features a maximum peak pulse current of 23.8 A and a very low reverse leakage current of 1 μA, ensuring minimal power losses during normal operation. The single diode configuration supports bi-directional operation commonly required for AC or symmetrical circuits.

Its small size with dimensions of 7.6 mm length and 3.6 mm diameter allows for compact PCB layout designs. The DO-15 package ensures easy through-hole mounting suitable for repair or prototype applications.

Typical applications include transient voltage protection in power supplies, industrial controllers, automotive electronics, and communication infrastructure. Its TRANSZORB TM series designation highlights its specialized design for transient suppression needs.
