The P6KE22CARL is a bidirectional transient-voltage-suppression diode from onsemi's P6KE series, designed to clamp overvoltage events on a 22 V nominal rail.
Because the P6KE22CARL is active and in the P6KE series, it is widely available through multiple distribution channels. Confirm the 22 V breakdown voltage and bidirectional configuration match your protection requirement before committing the BOM line.
The P6KE22CARL is active and available to order. Submit an RFQ with your target quantity and we will confirm current pricing and lead time from our supply chain. Bulk tube packaging means no minimum reel commitment.
No — P6KE22A is a unidirectional TVS, while P6KE22CARL is bidirectional. The 'C' in the suffix indicates bidirectional clamping. For a 22 V rail that sees AC or reverse-polarity transients, the bidirectional version is the correct choice.
Yes — the P6KE22CA is also a bidirectional 22 V TVS from the same series. The 'RL' suffix on P6KE22CARL indicates Bulk tube packaging rather than tape-and-reel. Electrically they are identical; the package form factor is the only difference.
