1.5KE6.8 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The 1.5KE6.8C is a bidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode manufactured by ON Semiconductor. This component is designed for general purpose applications, offering robust protection against voltage transients.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a peak pulse power rating of 1500W (1.5kW) and a peak pulse current capability of 145A at a 10/1000µs waveform. The device has a typical reverse standoff voltage of 5.5V and a minimum breakdown voltage of 6.12V. The maximum clamping voltage at peak pulse current is 10.8V.

 

This TVS diode is supplied in a DO-201 package, suitable for through-hole mounting. It is part of the 1.5KE series, known for its reliability in voltage suppression applications. The bidirectional nature makes it suitable for AC line protection or situations where transients can occur in either direction.

 

Environmental compliance includes RoHS3 compliance, Moisture Sensitivity Level 1, and REACH unaffected status, though these are noted with low confidence due to lack of verification.
