P6KE160A

EIC Semicon · ESD And Surge Protection (TVS/ESD) · DO-15

P6KE160A from EIC Semicon, in a DO-15. 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 K passive Cathode end of the unidirectional TVS, marked by the color band; connects to the positive side of the protected line, with VBR 152-168 V at 1 mA, VRWM 136 V and maximum clamping voltage 219 V at 2.7 A for P6KE160A.
2 A passive Axial anode lead of the unidirectional TVS (opposite the color band), connected to the ground/return side; the datasheet gives 1.00 in (25.4 mm) minimum lead length.
