Product details

Obsolete — sourcing through independent channels

The 1.5KE400 is officially obsolete per Littelfuse.

Clamping and breakdown ratings for 342V rails

The 342 V reverse standoff means the diode draws negligible leakage below that rail voltage — it stays out of the circuit during normal operation and only conducts when a surge pushes the line above the breakdown threshold.

DO-201 axial package and temperature range

Housed in a DO-201AA (DO-27) axial-lead package, through-hole mounted. No power-line protection rating — this is a general-purpose transient suppressor for signal or DC bus protection, not for AC mains primary-side clamping.

Frequently asked questions

How can I source the 1.5KE400 now that it is obsolete?

The 1.5KE400 is discontinued by Littelfuse. No official successor is listed, so the BOM line relies on surplus inventory.

What are the key clamping specs for the 1.5KE400?

342 V reverse standoff, 360 V minimum breakdown, 575.4 V maximum clamping at 2.8 A peak pulse current (10/1000 µs waveform). Peak pulse power is 1500 W (1.5 kW).
