Description and Introduction

600 Watt peak power transient voltage suppressor. Reverse stand-off voltage VRWM = 154.00 V. Test current IT = 1 mA. **Introduction to the P6KE180CA Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) Diode from ST**  

The P6KE180CA is a high-performance Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode designed to protect sensitive electronic circuits from voltage spikes and transient events. Manufactured by STMicroelectronics, this bidirectional TVS diode offers robust clamping capabilities, ensuring reliable overvoltage protection in a wide range of applications.  

With a standoff voltage of 153.9V and a breakdown voltage ranging between 171V and 189V, the P6KE180CA effectively clamps transient voltages to safe levels, safeguarding components from damage. It features a peak pulse power dissipation of 600W (10/1000μs waveform), making it suitable for industrial, automotive, and telecommunications systems where transient surges are common.  

The diode’s fast response time and low clamping voltage enhance its efficiency in suppressing electrostatic discharge (ESD), lightning-induced surges, and inductive load switching transients. Its bidirectional configuration simplifies circuit design by eliminating the need for polarity considerations.  

Encased in a DO-204AC (DO-15) package, the P6KE180CA is compact and easy to integrate into PCB layouts. Its reliability and compliance with industry standards make it a preferred choice for engineers seeking robust transient protection solutions.

Application Scenarios & Design Considerations

600 Watt peak power transient voltage suppressor. Reverse stand-off voltage VRWM = 154.00 V. Test current IT = 1 mA.

Alternative Part Number

  • 1.5KE180CA --: Same 180V bidirectional TVS function with higher 1500W peak pulse power rating, widely available and a common drop-in upgrade for P6KE series.
  • SMBJ180CA --: Bidirectional 180V TVS in SMB package with 600W rating, matching the P6KE power class and suitable for surface-mount replacement.
  • P6SMB180CA --: 600W bidirectional TVS with 180V standoff voltage in SMB package, electrically equivalent to the P6KE180CA with a different series name.
  • 1.5KE180CA --: Same 180V bidirectional TVS diode in a larger 1.5kW power rating, widely available and a common drop-in upgrade for P6KE series.
  • SMBJ180CA --: Bidirectional 180V TVS in SMB package with 600W peak pulse power, matching the P6KE180CA rating in a surface-mount form factor.
  • P6SMB180CA --: 600W bidirectional 180V TVS in SMB package, functionally equivalent to the P6KE180CA with similar clamping characteristics.
