Description

P6KE6.8A are use to protect electronic circuits from possible damage. Or damage equipment affected by voltage spikes and transients to sensitive components.

P6KE6.8A specifications:

  • Package Type: DO-15
  • Maximum power consumption: 600W
  • Maximum operating temperature: 175°C
  • Unidirectional
  • The DO-15 package is a through-hole package with two leads. Commonly used in diodes and other discrete components.
  • The 600W power dissipation rating means the TVS diodes can withstand transient surges of up to 600W without damage.
  • 175°C is the maximum temperature for safe operation.
  • A TVS diode is unidirectional, which means it can only handle voltage surges in one direction. There are also bidirectional TVS diodes that can handle bidirectional surges. TVS diodes are used in applications such as power supplies, telecom and automotive electronics. To protect against voltage transients and spikes.

Feature

ESD suppressors, also known as TVS (transient voltage suppressor) diodes. is an electronic component. Designed to protect sensitive electronic circuits from damage. Damaged by, for example, electrostatic discharge (ESD) and other transient voltage events. The TVS diode provides a low impedance path for transient current flow to ground. Sensitive electronic components are thus protected from high voltage spikes.

The DO-15 package is a popular package type for TVS diodes. It is a cylindrical package with a diameter of 4.5 mm and a length of 12.7 mm. with axial leads. Can be easily mounted on a printed circuit board (PCB) through a hole.

The 175C rating refers to the maximum operating temperature of the TVS diode. This means that TVS diodes can safely operate at temperatures up to 175 degrees Celsius. without degrading its performance or reliability.

The 600W rating refers to the peak power handling capability of the TVS diode. This means that TVS diodes can handle voltage spikes up to 600 Watts (or 10/1000µs pulses). without malfunctioning or degrading its performance.

The “unidir” characteristic refers to the unidirectional (or one-way) characteristic of a TVS diode. This means that TVS diodes can only conduct current in one direction. That is, from anode to cathode. Unidirectional TVS diodes are use to protect electronic components. to protect against unidirectional voltage spikes. Whereas, bidirectional TVS diodes are use to protect components from voltage spikes in both directions.

FAQ

Q: What is the difference between ESD Suppressors and TVS Diodes?

A: ESD suppressor and TVS diode are often used interchangeably. But technically, an ESD suppressor is a TVS diode. Specifically designed to protect against ESD events. TVS diodes are a broader category of equipment. Can be use to protect against a wider range of transient voltage events.

Q: What is the purpose of using a TVS diode?

A: The purpose of using TVS diodes is to protect electronic circuits from voltage spikes caused by transient events. e.g. lightning strikes, electrostatic discharges or switching inductive loads. The TVS diode provides a low impedance path for transient current flow to ground. Sensitive electronic components are thus protected from high voltage spikes.

Q: What does DO-15 package mean?

A: DO-15 is the packaging type for electronic components. Generally used for small through-hole components such as diodes and resistors. The DO-15 package is cylindrical with a diameter of 4.5 mm and a length of 12.7 mm. with axial leads. Mounts easily on a printed circuit board (PCB) through a hole.

Q: What is the meaning of 175C in the TVS diode specification?

A: The 175C rating in the specification refers to the maximum operating temperature. This means that TVS diodes can safely operate at temperatures up to 175 degrees Celsius. without degrading its performance or reliability.

Q: What is the meaning of 600W in the TVS diode specification?

A: The 600W rating in the specification refers to the peak power handling capability. This means that TVS diodes can handle voltage spikes up to 600 Watts (or 10/1000µs pulses). without malfunctioning or degrading its performance.
