600W peak pulse in a DO-15 axial body
The P6KE62A-T: Housed in a DO-204AC (DO-15) axial-lead package, it is a through-hole part intended for general-purpose circuit protection on boards where a soldered lead gives mechanical stability over a surface-mount body.
Obsolete — sourcing through independent channels
Diodes Incorporated lists the P6KE62A-T as obsolete. For BOM lines that call out this exact part number, supply is available through independent surplus and broker channels.
What the ratings mean for the protection decision
The 53V reverse standoff voltage means the P6KE62A-T will not conduct appreciably below that rail — it sits across a 48V or 53V bus without loading it. The 58.9V minimum breakdown ensures it starts clamping before the protected circuitry sees overvoltage damage. At the 7.1A peak pulse current (10/1000 µs waveform), the clamping voltage rises to 85V maximum. This is the voltage the downstream components must survive during the transient event.
