1500W surge rating and clamping threshold
The 1.5KE36A B0G is a 1500W (1.5kW) peak pulse power TVS diode in the 1.5KE series from Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation, rated for a 10/1000µs waveform. The 30.8V reverse standoff voltage means the device draws negligible leakage below that rail; the 34.2V minimum breakdown triggers clamping at 49.9V maximum, limiting a 31A peak pulse current. This is a unidirectional Zener-type suppressor — one channel, cathode band to the protected rail. The 1500W rating at 10/1000µs is the standard TVS power metric — it translates to roughly 24W steady-state dissipation at the same junction temperature limit. For repetitive surges, derate per the pulse train duty cycle; this diode is designed for infrequent transient events, not continuous overvoltage.
Through-hole DO-201 package and board integration
Housed in a DO-201AA / DO-27 axial leaded package (supplier device package DO-201), the 1.5KE36A B0G mounts through-hole on a PCB or terminal block. No power line protection — this device is intended for signal and DC rail transient suppression, not AC mains. The bulk packaging suits low-to-medium volume assembly or rework. Lead spacing is standard for axial diodes; verify the hole diameter on your PCB matches the DO-201 lead diameter before committing the BOM position.
