1.5KE43A-E3/54 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The 1.5KE43A-E3/54 is a unidirectional TRANSZORB transient voltage suppressor from Vishay General Semiconductor, designed to protect sensitive electronics from voltage transients. It features a reverse standoff voltage of 36.8V and a breakdown voltage range of 40.9V to 45.2V at 1mA. The device clamps transient voltages to a maximum of 59.3V, handling a peak pulse current of 25.3A under a 10/1000µs waveform.

 

With a peak pulse power rating of 1500W, this TVS diode is suitable for protecting ICs, MOSFETs, and signal lines in consumer, computer, industrial, and telecommunication applications. It utilizes a glass passivated chip junction for reliability and offers very fast response time to transients.

 

The part is packaged in a DO-201AA (DO-27) axial leaded package with through-hole mounting. The termination leads are matte tin plated and solderable per J-STD-002. The E3 suffix indicates RoHS compliance and commercial grade. The /54 suffix denotes tape and reel packaging.
