Its 15.2 V reverse standoff voltage sits just above a nominal 12 V or 15 V DC rail, so the diode stays off during normal operation and only clamps when a transient pushes the bus above 18.05 V breakdown. With a maximum clamp voltage of 29.09 V at 17.1 A peak pulse current, the 1N6113 handles industrial surge events like motor start kickback or inductive load dump without letting the rail exceed the downstream silicon's absolute maximum rating. ## Bidirectional clamping in a single axial device This is a single-channel bidirectional TVS — it clamps equally on positive and negative transients, which eliminates the need for two series diodes or a bridge arrangement on AC-coupled or bipolar signal lines. The axial B, Axial package (DO-13 style) is through-hole mounted, suited for point-of-protection on a backplane or terminal block. The junction temperature range spans -55°C to 175°C, so the device can sit on a hot PCB near a power supply or in an outdoor enclosure without derating the pulse capability. ## Active production — no end-of-life risk Microchip Technology lists the 1N6113 as Active in production.","metaTitle":"1N6113 Zener TVS Diode – 500 W, 15.2 V Standoff, Axial","metaDescription":"1N6113 Zener TVS from Microchip Technology: 500 W peak pulse, 15.2 V reverse standoff, 29.09 V clamp, bidirectional, axial package, -55°C to 175°C.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Circuit Protection"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"Microchip Technology","Type":"Zener","Series":"-","Package":"Bulk","Applications":"General Purpose","Mounting Type":"Through Hole","Package / Case":"B, Axial","Product Status":"Active","lifecycle_stage":"eol_hot","Power - Peak Pulse":"500W","Base Product Number":"1N6113","Operating Temperature":"-55°C~175°C(TJ)","Power Line Protection":"No","Bidirectional Channels":"1","Capacitance @ Frequency":"-","Supplier Device Package":"Axial","Voltage - Breakdown (Min)":"18.05V","Voltage - Clamping (Max) @ Ipp":"29.09V","Voltage - Reverse Standoff (Typ)":"15.2V","Current - Peak Pulse (10/1000µs)":"17.1A"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$12.6600","stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icboms.com/c72f565c96d1fb1ddee384734173c93c.pdf","sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Is 1N6113 a bidirectional device?","answer":"Yes, the 1N6113 is a single-channel bidirectional Zener TVS.
