The P6KE6.8A-T-F: The 10.5 V maximum clamping voltage at 57 A peak pulse current (10/1000 µs waveform) means a 5.8 V nominal rail sees the overvoltage held below 11 V — well within the abs-max rating of most 12 V-tolerant downstream ICs.
DO-15 axial — through-hole fit and thermal path
Housed in a DO-204AC (DO-15) axial-leaded package, the P6KE6.8A-T-F mounts through-hole on a PCB. The axial body and 0.032-inch diameter leads suit wave-solder assembly and provide a low-inductance path for fast transients.
