Product details

Obsolete — sourcing through independent channels

The 1.5KE130CA/54: For builds that already carry this part on the BOM, supply is available through independent surplus and broker channels.

Clamping and surge ratings that define the protection window

The reverse standoff voltage is 111 V, meaning the diode stays transparent on a nominal 100 V rail and only conducts above the 124 V minimum breakdown threshold.

Package and temperature envelope

Housed in a DO-201AA (DO-27) axial-lead package — the through-hole body handles the thermal dissipation of a 1500 W pulse without the board-spread constraints of a surface-mount package. Junction temperature range spans -55°C to +175°C — suitable for outdoor, industrial, and under-hood environments where the ambient temperature cycles beyond commercial limits. Supplied on tape and reel (the /54 suffix) for automated insertion — the axial leads feed through a radial-tape format, not the standard surface-mount carrier.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 1.5KE130CA/54 and get a price?

Submit a request with your target quantity and preferred date code range.

What is the closest alternative to 1.5KE130CA/54 in the same family?

A parametric replacement would need to match the 1500 W peak pulse rating, 111 V standoff, 179 V clamp, and bidirectional configuration in a through-hole package — but the exact order code has no direct cross-reference.
