3KP180CA Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The 3KP180CA is a bidirectional transient voltage suppression (TVS) diode from Littelfuse's 3KP series. It is designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients induced by lightning and other transient events. Key specifications include a reverse standoff voltage of 180V, a maximum clamping voltage of 289V, and a peak pulse power dissipation of 3000W (10/1000µs waveform). The device features a fast response time of less than 1.0ps, ensuring rapid clamping of overvoltage spikes.

 

This TVS diode is housed in a P600 axial through-hole package with matte tin lead-free plating. It operates over a junction temperature range of -55°C to 175°C and can dissipate up to 7.0W of steady-state power. The device is compliant with IEC-61000-4-2 ESD protection (30kV air/contact) and IEC-61000-4-4 EFT protection, making it suitable for robust industrial and telecom applications.

 

Typical applications include protection of I/O interfaces, VCC buses, and other vulnerable circuits in telecom, computer, industrial, and consumer electronic systems. The glass passivated chip junction ensures reliable performance, and the device is rated for repetitive pulse duty cycles of 0.01%.
