28V standoff, 1500W pulse — 24V rail clamp
Its 28V reverse standoff voltage sits comfortably above a nominal 24V supply, so the diode stays off during normal operation but begins to avalanche at 31.4V minimum breakdown. Under a 10/1000µs surge waveform it clamps at 45.7V maximum while conducting 33A peak pulse current, and the device is rated to absorb 1500W of peak pulse power. The DO-13 through-hole package is a metal-can hermetic style that handles the thermal pulse of a 1.5kW event without cracking the die attach.
Junction temperature range and mounting
This makes the 1N6051A/TR suitable for under-hood automotive, avionics, or downhole instrumentation where ambient temperatures push junction temperatures above 150°C.
