Product details

The 1.5KE6.8CA A0G: That 1.5 kW rating means it absorbs a defined transient energy without failing short — useful for clamping surges on 5.8 V signal or supply rails where the protected circuit's abs-max sits below 10.5 V. Reverse standoff voltage is 5.8 V typ; breakdown min is 6.45 V. The clamping voltage at the rated 150 A peak pulse current is 10.5 V max — the rail sees no more than that during the surge event. Bidirectional, so a single part handles positive and negative transients symmetrically. Junction temperature range spans -55 °C to 175 °C, covering most industrial and telecom ambient conditions without derating at the upper end. The DO-201AA (DO-27) axial package is a through-hole form factor — common in PSU input stages, telecom line cards, and industrial control boards where wave-solder assembly is standard.
