1500 W bidirectional transient suppressor
The 1.5KE36CA-TP: With a single bidirectional channel, it protects against both positive and negative surges without needing two devices back-to-back — useful on AC lines or floating DC buses where polarity reverses.
Voltage ratings and clamping margin
Breakdown occurs at 34.2 V minimum, giving a 3.4 V guard band above the 30.8 V standoff — enough to keep the diode off during normal rail ripple and regulation tolerance.
DO-201AE axial package and thermal range
The DO-201AE axial-lead package suits point-to-point wiring or through-hole PCB assembly; the junction operates from -55°C to +175°C, covering industrial and automotive under-hood thermal profiles.
