The P6KE6V8CA-T: At that pulse condition the clamping voltage holds at 10.5 V maximum, with a peak pulse current capability of 57 A. The reverse standoff voltage is 5.8 V — the rail this device protects should not exceed 5.8 V in normal operation; above that the TVS begins to conduct and clamps the transient.
Obsolete — sourcing through independent channels
Diodes Incorporated lists the P6KE6V8CA-T as Obsolete. The axial DO-15 package and 600 W pulse rating are common across the P6KE family; a parametric search for a bidirectional TVS with a 5.8 V standoff and 600 W rating in the same footprint will surface functional equivalents from other suppliers, but pin-to-pin compatibility must be verified against the original layout.
DO-15 axial package and temperature range
Housed in a DO-204AC (DO-15) axial-lead package, the P6KE6V8CA-T is a through-hole device suited for point-to-point wiring or PCB mounting with through-hole pads.
