Breakdown kicks in at 111 V minimum, which means the suppressor activates before the downstream IC sees destructive stress. At peak pulse current the clamping voltage climbs to 162 V maximum, so the downstream circuit must tolerate 162 V during the event, not 100 V. For a board designer, the 162 V clamping ceiling is the number that sizes the downstream IC's abs-max margin. A 100 V rail protected by this diode sees 162 V briefly during a surge — the protected device must survive that spike or additional input filtering is needed. ## R-6 axial package and through-hole assembly The R-6 axial package mounts through-hole into a PCB — the through-hole terminations give a robust mechanical joint under vibration compared to SMD alternatives. Soldering follows a standard wave or hand-profile for axial leaded parts; no precision pad alignment is needed, which simplifies board assembly for a high-power suppression component. The -55 °C to 175 °C junction temperature rating reflects the 5 kW peak pulse capability — the die must survive the thermal excursion during a transient event without exceeding Tj-max. ## Sourcing and production status The 5KP100A-TP is listed as Active by Micro Commercial Co — this part is in normal production and suitable for new designs. The base product number 5KP covers a range of standoff voltages in the same package — confirming the exact 100 V variant is required for the BOM position, since the family shares the same footprint but different clamping characteristics.","metaTitle":"5KP100A-TP Zener TVS, 100V Standoff, 5kW Peak","metaDescription":"Micro Commercial Co 5KP100A-TP unidirectional Zener TVS diode, 100V standoff, 162V clamping max, 5kW peak pulse, R-6 axial.
