P6KE18CA Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The P6KE18CA is a bidirectional transient voltage suppression (TVS) diode manufactured by STMicroelectronics, designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients. It features a reverse standoff voltage of 15V and a clamping voltage of 32.5V at a peak pulse current of 123A (8/20µs waveform). The device can handle 600W of peak pulse power (10/1000µs waveform) and offers a fast response time of less than 1.0ps from 0V to breakdown voltage.

 

This TVS diode is housed in a DO-15 (DO-204AC) axial leaded through-hole package, suitable for general-purpose circuit protection applications. It has a junction capacitance of 800pF at 1MHz and an operating temperature range of -55°C to 175°C. The part is RoHS3 compliant and halogen free, with an MSL rating of Level 1 (unlimited).

 

Designed for use in telecom, computer, industrial, and consumer electronics, the P6KE18CA provides reliable protection against lightning-induced transients and other voltage surges. Its glass passivated chip junction ensures robust performance, and it is compatible with high-temperature reflow soldering up to 260°C for 30 seconds.
