Zener TVS for 5V rail clamping
Its 1500W peak pulse power rating handles surges that would otherwise damage downstream logic or power ICs. With a reverse standoff voltage of 5V and a maximum clamping voltage of 9.4V at the peak pulse current of 160A (8/20µs waveform), this part leaves a 4.4V margin above the rail — enough to keep a 5V-tolerant ASIC or transceiver within its absolute maximum rating during a surge event.
onsemi lists the ICTE-5RL4G as Obsolete. For BOM lines that still carry this order code, supply is limited to existing distributor stock and the independent market. When sourcing, confirm the date code and lot traceability — obsolete parts in the spot channel may carry older date codes that require re-qualification for safety-critical or long-life applications.
The through-hole axial body is hand-solderable and suits point-to-point wiring or socketed boards where surface-mount reflow is not an option.
