Littelfuse 1-Element Uni-Directional TVS Diode 30 kW Peak Pulse Power 2-Pin P600 30KPA48A

Littelfuse 30KPA48A is a high-performance 1-element uni-directional TVS diode engineered to safeguard sensitive electronic components by suppressing transient voltage surges. Rated for a peak pulse power dissipation of 30 kW, this diode supports industrial, automotive, and commercial electronic applications where voltage spikes due to lightning or switching events can pose a risk.

The device features a single diode configuration with uni-directional current flow, optimized for effective transient suppression. Its minimum breakdown voltage is 53.6 V and it has a maximum reverse stand-off voltage of 48 V, providing a reliable voltage threshold for protection. The maximum peak pulse current rating of 371.3 A ensures it can handle high current surges without damage.

Encapsulated in a durable through-hole P600 package, the diode measures 9.1 mm in both length and diameter, facilitating straightforward PCB mounting with 2 pins. The high-temperature soldering capability (265°C for 10 seconds) combined with halogen-free and matte tin lead-free plating supports environmentally responsible manufacturing and durability under harsh conditions.

Fast response time normally less than 1.0 picosecond ensures immediate clamping during transient events, minimizing damage to sensitive circuits. The clamping voltage of 81.6 V provides robust voltage limitation, contributing to the diode's efficacy.

Typical applications include industrial power supplies, telecommunications systems, automotive electronics, and consumer devices requiring protection from transient voltage surges. The device operates effectively in temperature environments ranging from -55°C to 175°C, making it suitable for harsh and variable climate conditions.
