Product details

What the TVS ratings mean for your circuit

The 1N6275A-E3/51: 12.8V typical reverse standoff is the working rail the diode sees day-to-day; the 14.3V minimum breakdown voltage sits 1.5V above it, so the diode stays off during normal operation. The DO-201AA axial leadform suits through-hole board assembly and is large enough to handle the thermal demands of repeated surge events without derating into failure. Junction temperature rated from -55°C to 175°C — the wide high end suits equipment that runs hot or is deployed near thermal margins, such as power supplies and motor drives, without requiring active cooling of the TVS itself.

Frequently asked questions

What type and series is the 1N6275A-/51, and what does it do?

It is a unidirectional Zener-based TVS (transient voltage suppressor) diode from the TransZorb series — designed to clamp voltage spikes on a power rail before they reach sensitive downstream circuits. Rated 12.8V standoff with a 14.3V minimum breakdown and 21.2V clamping ceiling at 70.8A surge.
