Product details

Clamping voltage and peak current — sizing the protection margin

The 1.5KE200CA-E3/73: The 5.5 A figure is the peak current the device can handle in the 10/1000 µs pulse — enough for most surge events on a 171 V bus without needing an external series resistor. Through-hole DO-201AA (DO-27 axial) package suits point-to-point wiring or PCB mounting with standard 0.100-inch pitch holes.
