What the 1500W rating means for your protection design
The 1.5KE180CAHE3_A/D: The 154V reverse standoff voltage means it stays out of the way on a nominal 150V DC bus or a 120V AC line, only conducting when the transient exceeds that threshold.
Automotive-grade reliability and temperature range
The operating junction temperature range spans -55°C to 175°C, covering the full automotive thermal profile from cold crank to hot soak. Through-hole DO-201AA (DO-27 axial) package — a standard footprint that is easy to hand-solder or replace in repair, and the large body handles the 1500W pulse without overheating the leads.
