Product details

What the 1.5 kW rating means on the bench

The 1.5KE530C: The single bidirectional channel means it protects both polarities in one package — useful on AC lines or DC rails where the return path is not referenced to earth.

DO-201 axial-lead package and board fit

Housed in a DO-201AA (DO-27, Axial) through-hole package, the 1.5KE530C mounts into a 0.052-inch diameter hole on a standard PCB — the axial leads are bent and soldered on the opposite side. The junction temperature range spans -55°C to 175°C, so it survives the thermal cycling of a power supply or motor drive enclosure without derating the pulse capability at the high end.

Frequently asked questions

What is the 1.5KE530C's breakdown and clamping voltage?

The minimum breakdown voltage is 477 V, and the maximum clamping voltage at 2.1 A peak pulse current (10/1000 µs) is 761.25 V. The reverse standoff voltage is also 477 V, meaning the part starts conducting above that level.
