P6KE540CA Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The Littelfuse P6KE540CA is a bidirectional Zener transient voltage suppression (TVS) diode designed for general purpose overvoltage protection. It features a reverse standoff voltage of 460V and a clamping voltage of 740V, providing robust protection for sensitive electronic circuits.

 

With a peak pulse power dissipation of 600W (10/1000μs waveform) and a peak pulse current of 0.8A (800mA), this device can handle high energy transients. The glass passivated chip junction ensures fast response time, typically less than 1.0ps from 0V to breakdown voltage.

 

The P6KE540CA is packaged in a through-hole DO-204AC (DO-15) package with axial leads, compatible with high temperature reflow soldering (260°C/30s). It operates over a junction temperature range of -55°C to 175°C. The device is listed as RoHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and MSL Level 1 (unlimited).

 

Ideal for protecting I/O interfaces, VCC bus, and other circuits in telecom, computer, industrial, and consumer electronics from voltage transients induced by lightning and other events. Per the datasheet, it meets IEC 61000-4-2 ESD and IEC 61000-4-4 EFT protection requirements.
