Its 14.5 V clamping voltage at 41 A peak pulse current (10/1000 µs waveform) means a downstream IC rated for 15 V absolute maximum sees the clamp engage before the die sees overstress. This part belongs to the P6KE family of axial-lead TVS devices, a common choice for secondary-side protection in telecom, industrial control, and consumer power supplies where a single unidirectional clamp guards a 5 V or 12 V rail against ESD and inductive-load spikes. ## Clamping parameters and the so-what for rail protection The breakdown voltage range starts at 9.5 V (V_BR min), meaning the avalanche triggers before the rail exceeds the downstream IC's absolute maximum. The 175°C junction maximum is typical for silicon TVS diodes; derate peak pulse power above 25°C per the datasheet curve — at 175°C the effective power rating drops to near zero. ## DO-15 axial package and board-fit note The DO-204AC (DO-15) axial-lead package is a through-hole form factor with 0.032-inch diameter leads. It mounts into 0.040-inch plated-through holes on a standard PCB or point-to-point wiring — the axial body sits above the board, so the leads must be formed and inserted before wave or hand soldering. No MSL rating applies to leaded through-hole parts; no bake cycle needed before assembly. For a rework or repair bench, the Cut Tape option is more practical for small quantities. ## Obsolete — sourcing through independent channels Quantities are lot-specific, and each shipment is verified for authenticity, date code, and RoHS compliance at the time of RFQ.","metaTitle":"P6KE10A-T Diodes Zener TVS, 600W, DO-15, Obsolete","metaDescription":"P6KE10A-T Diodes Inc Zener TVS diode, 600W peak pulse, 8.55V standoff, DO-15 axial.
