P6KE56CA

DOWO · TVS · DO-15

P6KE56CA from DOWO, 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 A1 passive Bidirectional TVS terminal with no polarity (no cathode band on bipolar parts); P6KE56CA has VBR 53.20-58.80 V at 1 mA, VRWM 47.8 V, and VC 77.0 V max at IPP 7.79 A.
2 A2 passive Second bidirectional TVS terminal, interchangeable with the other lead; 600 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs), and IR is 1 µA max at VRWM 47.8 V.
