Product details

1.5KE16A B0G — 1500W unidirectional TVS in DO-201 axial

The 1.5KE16A B0G is a 1500 W peak pulse power TVS diode from Taiwan Semiconductor's 1.5KE series, configured as a single unidirectional Zener-type suppressor in a through-hole DO-201AA (DO-27) axial package.

Clamping voltage and breakdown margins

The minimum breakdown voltage is 15.2 V, providing a 1.6 V guard band above the 13.6 V standoff — enough headroom to avoid nuisance triggering on normal rail ripple while still clamping fast transients before they reach downstream silicon.

Frequently asked questions

What is the 1.5KE16A B0G's clamping voltage and peak pulse current?

Maximum clamping voltage is 22.5 V at 70 A peak pulse current (10/1000 µs waveform). The reverse standoff voltage is 13.6 V, and minimum breakdown is 15.2 V.
