Product details

Zener TVS for general-purpose transient suppression

The 1N6104 is a Zener-type bidirectional TVS diode from Microchip Technology, designed for general-purpose transient suppression where a single device clamps both positive and negative surges on a line.

Breakdown voltage and temperature range

Minimum breakdown voltage is 7.4 V, reverse standoff is 6.2 V typical — this places the 1N6104 on 5 V or 6 V supply lines where the clamping threshold must stay below the downstream IC's absolute maximum rating.

Active production and sourcing posture

Axial through-hole form (B, Axial case).

Frequently asked questions

Is the 1N6104 a bidirectional TVS diode?

Yes, the 1N6104 is a single bidirectional channel. It clamps both positive and negative transients on the same line, which is typical for AC-coupled or bipolar signal protection.

What is the peak pulse current (Ipp) of the 1N6104?

Peak pulse current is 39.24 A for a 10/1000 µs waveform, derived from the 500 W peak pulse power rating at the clamping voltage.
