500 W Zener TVS – 11.4 V Standoff, Axial Package
The 1N6110 is a 500 W peak pulse power Zener TVS diode from Microchip Technology, designed for general-purpose transient suppression on unidirectional rails. The 11.4 V reverse standoff voltage protects 12 V nominal supply lines, clamping transients at 22.05 V max with a peak pulse current rating of 22.61 A under the 10/1000 µs waveform. The through-hole axial package (B, Axial) suits point-to-point wiring, terminal blocks, or PCB mounting where a soldered lead is preferred over surface-mount. The 500 W rating is the peak pulse power at 25 °C — derate linearly above that per the datasheet curve.
Temperature Range and Environment Fit
Rated for -55°C to 175°C junction temperature, the 1N6110 covers automotive under-hood, industrial motor drives, and outdoor telecom enclosures where ambient heat and cold extremes are routine. The 175°C upper limit gives margin above the 150°C typical for many TVS parts, reducing derating complexity in high-temperature layouts. No power line protection means the part is intended for signal or low-power DC rails, not AC mains. The single bidirectional channel handles symmetrical clamping for AC-coupled or differential signal pairs.
Active Production – Sourcing and Lifecycle
For automated assembly, verify the handling method with your distributor. The axial leads are tin-plated and solderable per standard through-hole profiles.
