Breakdown starts at 15.2 V minimum, and the clamping voltage peaks at 22.5 V when the full 67 A pulse hits. For a 12 V nominal bus with a 13.6 V tolerance ceiling, this part sits right at the edge of the operating envelope; a 12 V rail that sags to 14 V under load won't trigger it, but a 15 V spike will start conduction before the protected circuitry sees 23 V. Panjit has marked the 1.5KE16CA_R2_00001 as obsolete. No official successor order code is recorded. For a production line or a repair stockroom holding this part on the BOM, the supply path runs through independent surplus and broker channels — sealed reels with consistent date codes are the target, not mixed-date auction lots. ## Package and mounting — the DO-201AE axial footprint Through-hole mounting in a DO-201AE axial package. The lead spacing and body diameter match the standard DO-201AE footprint — a 1.0 mm diameter hole on a 9.5 mm pitch is typical. The 175 °C maximum junction temperature gives margin for the self-heating from repetitive pulses, but the 1500W rating assumes a single non-repetitive 10/1000 µs pulse at 25 °C lead temperature; derate for elevated ambient or repetitive events per the thermal impedance curve.","metaTitle":"Panjit 1.5KE16CA_R2_00001 TVS, 1500W, 22.5V Clamp","metaDescription":"Obsolete Panjit 1.5KE16CA_R2_00001 bidirectional TVS diode, 1500W peak pulse, 22.5V clamping, DO-201AE axial.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Obsolete","categoryPath":["Circuit Protection"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"Panjit International Inc.","Type":"Zener","Series":"1.5KE","Package":"Tape & Reel (TR); Cut Tape (CT)","Applications":"General Purpose","Mounting Type":"Through Hole","Package / Case":"DO-201AE, Axial","Product Status":"Obsolete","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Power - Peak Pulse":"1500W (1.5kW)","Operating Temperature":"-65°C~175°C(TJ)","Power Line Protection":"No","Bidirectional Channels":"1","Capacitance @ Frequency":"-","Supplier Device Package":"DO-201AE","Voltage - Breakdown (Min)":"15.2V","Voltage - Clamping (Max) @ Ipp":"22.5V","Voltage - Reverse Standoff (Typ)":"13.6V","Current - Peak Pulse (10/1000µs)":"67A"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":null,"stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icboms.com/adbd088802f505fd96ec586b80ab0f5a.pdf","sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://icboms.com/panjit-international-inc/1.5KE16CA_R2_00001","citationPolicyUrl":"https://icboms.com/llms.txt","source":"ICBOMS","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"ICBOMS\" and link https://icboms.com/panjit-international-inc/1.5KE16CA_R2_00001 when reusing this data.
