1N6046A Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The 1N6046A is a bidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode from Microchip Technology, part of the 1N6036A-1N6072A series. It is designed to protect sensitive electronic circuits from voltage transients caused by inductive switching, lightning surges, ESD, and EFT events.

 

Key electrical specifications include a reverse standoff voltage of 17V, a maximum clamping voltage of 27.7V at a peak pulse current of 54A (10/1000µs waveform), and a peak pulse power rating of 1500W. The device features an extremely fast response time of less than 100 ps, making it suitable for high-speed transient protection.

 

The 1N6046A is housed in a hermetically sealed DO-13 (DO-202AA) metal package with axial leads for through-hole mounting. It operates over a junction temperature range of -55°C to +175°C and has a rated average power dissipation of 1W. The package is solderable per MIL-STD-750 method 2026.
