The through-hole DO-201AA / DO-27 axial package (supplier device package CASE-1) mounts into a standard 0.040-inch diameter lead hole and is wave-solder compatible, making it a straightforward retrofit in existing board layouts or point-to-point wiring. ## Lifecycle reality — obsolete, sourced through independent channels No official successor order code is recorded from Microsemi. Sourcing is limited to independent surplus and broker inventory; lots are verified for authenticity and traceability at the time of RFQ.","metaTitle":"Microsemi 1.5KE180AE3/TR13 Zener TVS, 1500W, 154V Standoff","metaDescription":"Obsolete Microsemi 1.5KE180AE3/TR13 Zener TVS diode, 1500W peak pulse, 154V standoff, 246V clamping.
