1.5KE56A Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The 1.5KE56A is a unidirectional TVS diode designed for transient voltage suppression. It features a glass-passivated chip junction within a DO-201 package, ensuring robust performance.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a 1500W peak pulse power capability on a 10/1000μs waveform, a breakdown voltage of 53V (typical @ 1mA), and a working voltage of 47.8V. The clamping voltage at 10A is 77V, with a low reverse leakage current of typically less than 1μA above 12V. Its fast response time is typically less than 1.0ps.

 

With a steady state power dissipation of 6.5W and a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 20°C/W, the 1.5KE56A is suitable for various applications requiring protection against voltage transients.

 

The device operates within a junction and storage temperature range of -55°C to +150°C. It is supplied in a DO-201 package with axial leads, suitable for through-hole mounting.
