Product details

1500 W axial-lead TVS — what the ratings mean for your rail

The 1.5KE170-B: With a 145 V reverse standoff voltage, it sits across a 120 VAC or 145 VDC bus and stays transparent until a transient drives the voltage past the 153.45 V breakdown threshold. The 245.7 V clamping voltage limits the peak to 6.5 A of pulse current, protecting downstream semiconductors from avalanche failure. The DO-201AA axial-lead package (also known as DO-27) is a through-hole form factor that handles the thermal pulse of a 1500 W surge without derating.

Obsolete — sourcing through independent channels

Littelfuse lists the 1.5KE170-B as obsolete. No official successor part number is published.
