Product details

Bidirectional TVS — voltage and power ratings

The 1.5KE180CA-T: Breakdown occurs at 171V minimum, and clamping is limited to 246V at the 6.1A peak pulse current. This voltage window suits 120VAC or 150VDC rail protection where the transient must be clamped below 250V.

DO-201 axial — through-hole mounting

Housed in a DO-201AA (DO-27) axial leaded package, the 1.5KE180CA-T mounts through-hole. The DO-201 body handles the 1500W pulse without cracking the epoxy case, and the axial leads carry the 6.1A pulse current without fusing.

The reel quantity is not listed here; confirm the reel count at quote time. Store the reels dry — axial DO-201 parts are not moisture-sensitive, but the tape and reel packaging should be kept in a climate-controlled environment to prevent lead oxidation over long shelf storage.

Frequently asked questions

What package does the 1.5KE180CA-T use?

Through-hole DO-201AA (also known as DO-27) axial leaded package. The leads are tin-plated copper for solderability.
