1500 W peak pulse in a DO-201 axial package
The 1.5KE350A-E3/73: The 1.5KE350A-/73 is a 1500 W (1.5 kW) peak pulse power TVS diode from Vishay's TransZorb series, specified with a 300 V reverse standoff voltage and a 482 V clamping maximum at the 3.1 A peak pulse current (10/1000 µs waveform).
Clamping voltage and breakdown margin
The 3.1 A peak pulse current rating at the 10/1000 µs test waveform is the current the diode can shunt while holding the clamp voltage; for shorter transients (8/20 µs) the peak current capability is higher, but the 1500 W power envelope is the binding limit across pulse widths.
