5KP78A-B
Littelfuse · ESD And Surge Protection (TVS/ESD) · P600
5KP78A-B from Littelfuse, in a P600. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.
Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode | passive | Cathode terminal of the uni-directional TVS, marked by the color band on the P600 body; the color band denotes the cathode (uni-directional products only). |
| 2 | Anode | passive | Anode terminal of the uni-directional TVS, the lead opposite the cathode band; the datasheet specifies forward voltage VF of 3.5 V (single die) and 5.0 V (stacked die) at 100 A. |
