Clamping Performance for the 12.8 V Rail
The 1.5KE15A-B: The 12.8 V reverse standoff voltage (VRWM) defines the normal operating rail it protects — below that threshold the device stays high-impedance.
Package and Board Fit — DO-201 Axial
The through-hole mounting suits point-to-point wiring or perforated board layouts where surface-mount reflow is not available or where board spin is not an option.
