The 1N6295A: For BOM lines that still require this exact order code, supply is limited to existing stock held by independent distributors. We source and quote to order against your quantity.
Peak pulse power and clamping performance
Rated for 1500W peak pulse power (1.5kW) – this is the energy the part can absorb in a single transient event before failure. The reverse standoff voltage is 85.5V; the device begins to avalanche at a minimum breakdown of 95V. During a surge, the voltage is clamped to a maximum of 137V at the peak pulse current. A single unidirectional channel means this part protects one polarity rail – for AC or bipolar lines you would need a bidirectional TVS.
Package and mounting – DO-201AD axial
Supplied in a DO-201AD axial-lead package, through-hole mount. Confirm the hole spacing on your PCB matches the lead pitch. Operating temperature range is -65°C to 175°C junction, suitable for high-temperature environments like under-hood automotive or industrial control cabinets.
Replacement and cross-reference guidance
No official successor is listed by onsemi. The base number 1N6295 (without the 'A' suffix) has a slightly different breakdown tolerance – the 'A' denotes a ±5% tolerance on breakdown voltage. If your circuit can accept a ±10% tolerance, the 1N6295 is a direct pin-compatible drop-in. For a like-for-like replacement with the same ±5% tolerance, consider the 1.5KE series from other manufacturers – the 1.5KE91A (91V standoff) or 1.5KE100A (100V standoff) are common cross-shopped parts, but verify the clamping voltage and peak pulse current against your surge requirement.
