Product details

1.5 kW peak pulse — clamping and standoff specs

The 1.5KE62A-E3/73: The 53 V reverse standoff voltage means the diode does not conduct appreciably below that level — it sits across a 48 V or 53 V rail without leaking. Breakdown starts at 58.9 V minimum, providing a clean snap-back into clamping. Unidirectional (single-channel) design — one diode per package, cathode band marked on the DO-201AA body. Polarity matters: the band goes toward the rail being protected.

DO-201AA axial — rework and board-fit

Through-hole DO-201AA (also known as DO-27) axial package. The leads are tin-plated copper; the body is molded epoxy with a clear cathode band.

Sourcing posture — quoted to order

No stock-holding claim — each lot is verified for traceability and RoHS compliance before shipment.
