Product details

1500W Zener TVS – military-grade protection

The 1N6063AE3 is a Zener-type transient-voltage suppressor from Microchip Technology, part of the Military series. It delivers 1500W peak pulse power, clamping a transient at 137V maximum with a reverse standoff of 82V. This is a single bidirectional-channel device, meaning it protects a line against both positive and negative surges without needing a series diode.

82V standoff, 137V clamp – line protection margin

The breakdown voltage minimum is 95V, and the clamping voltage at 11A peak pulse current is 137V max – that 42V headroom between standoff and clamp defines the energy the diode absorbs before the protected circuitry sees the full surge.

Active production – sourcing via RFQ

Sourced to order against BOM quantities.

DO-13 through-hole – mechanical fit

Housed in the DO-13 package, a hermetically sealed, through-hole metal can with a glass-to-metal seal. The package is designed for high-reliability soldering into a plated through-hole board and is compatible with the MIL-PRF-19500/507 screening flow.

Frequently asked questions

What is the peak pulse power rating and what does it mean?

The 1N6063AE3 is rated for 1500W peak pulse power at a 10/1000µs waveform. That is the maximum surge energy it can absorb without failing — a key parameter for sizing the TVS to the expected transient energy on the protected rail.
