1.5KE16CA-E3/54 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The 1.5KE16CA-E3/54 is a bidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode from Vishay General Semiconductor. It offers a reverse standoff voltage of 13.6V and a clamping voltage of 22.5V. With a peak pulse power rating of 1500W (10/1000µs waveform) and a peak pulse current of 66.7A, this device is designed to protect sensitive electronics from voltage transients.

 

This TVS diode features a glass passivated chip junction and very fast response time. It is housed in a through-hole DO-201AA (DO-27) axial lead package, suitable for a wide operating temperature range of -55°C to +175°C. The part is intended for general purpose applications such as protection against inductive load switching and lightning-induced transients in consumer, industrial, and telecom systems.
