Zener TVS for 36V rail transient protection
The 1N6380RL4 is a single-direction Zener TVS diode from onsemi's Mosorb™ series, rated for 1500W peak pulse power at 1 ms. It clamps a 36V nominal rail to 65.2V maximum during a transient, with a minimum breakdown voltage of 42.4V. The DO-201AD axial package suits through-hole board layouts where a soldered lead provides mechanical retention under surge.
Obsolete — sourcing through independent channels
onsemi lists the 1N6380RL4 as Obsolete. Date-code and package integrity should be confirmed before committing to a volume buy.
The 36V reverse standoff voltage is the maximum DC or peak AC voltage the TVS can withstand without conducting. Breakdown occurs at 42.4V minimum, and clamping is limited to 65.2V at the rated peak pulse current. For a 36V supply rail, the clamp margin leaves headroom for downstream components rated above 65V.
Package and temperature range for the operating environment
The DO-201AD axial package is a common through-hole form factor for TVS diodes, easily hand-soldered or wave-soldered. The junction temperature range spans -65°C to 175°C, covering industrial and automotive under-hood environments where the ambient may exceed 125°C. No power line protection feature is included — this part is intended for signal or low-voltage DC bus clamping.
