P6KE16CA

amsem · Electrostatic And Surge Protection (TVS/ESD) · DO-204AC(DO-15)

P6KE16CA from amsem, in a DO-204AC(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 A1 passive First terminal of the bidirectional P6KE16CA TVS, interchangeable with the other lead, with VRWM 13.6 V, VBR 15.2 to 16.8 V at 1.0 mA and maximum clamping voltage 22.5 V at 26.7 A IPP.
2 A2 passive Second terminal of the bidirectional P6KE16CA TVS with no cathode band polarity, rated for 600 W peak pulse power (10/1000us) and VRWM 13.6 V in either direction.
