1.5KE13CA

Littelfuse · TVS · DO-201

1.5KE13CA from Littelfuse, in a DO-201. 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 Bi-directional TVS terminal (axial lead, no polarity, no cathode band); 1.5KE13CA has VR 11.10 V, VBR 12.40-13.70 V at 1 mA, and max VC 18.2 V at Ipp 83.5 A.
2 A2 passive Bi-directional TVS terminal (axial lead, no polarity, no cathode band); the device is symmetric so either lead may connect to the higher potential, with 1500 W peak pulse power at 10/1000 µs.
