Product details

What is the 1N6166AUS and what does it protect?

It is rated for a peak pulse power of 1500W (1.5kW) under the 10/1000µs waveform, with a minimum breakdown voltage of 95V and a maximum clamping voltage of 137.6V at the peak pulse current of 10.9A.

Package and mounting – SQ-MELF C

Housed in a SQ-MELF (C) surface-mount package, the 1N6166AUS is. The MELF form factor is cylindrical with solderable end caps, requiring careful pick-and-place nozzle selection and a solder paste stencil that accommodates the rounded terminations.

Lifecycle and supply – still in production

No minimum order quantity restrictions beyond standard reel increments.

Frequently asked questions

Is the 1N6166AUS bidirectional?

Yes, it has a single bidirectional channel, clamping transients of either polarity equally.
