600W peak pulse, 185V standoff — the clamping ceiling for a 185V rail
The P6KE220A-T: The 600W rating is the peak pulse power the device can absorb for a 10/1000µs surge — nominal is not absolute max; the actual energy capability depends on the pulse duration and ambient temperature.
Obsolete — sourcing through independent distribution
Diodes Incorporated lists the P6KE220A-T as obsolete. The DO-204AC (DO-15) axial package is through-hole, suitable for point-to-point wiring or PCB mounting with lead forming.
The device is not rated for power line protection (no internal protection against sustained overvoltage or AC line transients) — it is intended for secondary-side DC rail clamping in general-purpose equipment.
