P6KE6V8CA

STMicroelectronics · ESD And Surge Protection (TVS/ESD) · DO-204AC

P6KE6V8CA from STMicroelectronics, in a DO-204AC. 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 Bidirectional (CA) TVS terminal with no polarity (red tape on both sides), standing off 5.8 V VRM with 6.45-7.14 V VBR at 10 mA and 10.5 V max VCL at 57 A (10/1000 µs).
2 A passive Second bidirectional (CA) TVS terminal, interchangeable with the other lead, with 600 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs) in either direction.
