EOL status and sourcing reality
Diodes Incorporated officially lists the 1.5KE10CA-B as Obsolete. There is no listed successor order code. Sourcing is through independent distribution channels; availability and pricing are confirmed at time of RFQ against specific quantity and date-code requirements.
Transient protection thresholds
The peak pulse current at that waveform is 103 A. The reverse standoff voltage is 8.55 V, meaning the part draws negligible leakage below that level. Bidirectional (single channel) construction makes it suitable for protecting AC signal lines or bipolar DC rails where the transient can swing both positive and negative relative to ground.
Package and temperature envelope
Housed in a DO-201AA (DO-27) axial-lead through-hole package with a DO-201 supplier device package designation. The bulk packaging suits high-volume pick-and-place or manual insertion depending on the line setup.
