HIGH CURRENT THRU-HOLE DISCRETE TVS DIODE
15,000 WATTS
DESCRIPTION
The 15KP A family is a series of discrete 15,000
Watt, silicon transient voltage suppressor
diodes designed for use in applications where
large voltage transients can permanently
damage voltage sensitive components and
equipment.
The 15KPA series has a peak pulse power
(PPP) rating of 15,000 Watts for an 10/1000
µs waveshape. This series is available in
voltages ranging from 17.0 V olts to 280 Volts
with 5 percent and 10 percent tolerances.
Both tolerances are referenced to the power
supply output or operating voltage level.
FEATURES
15,000 Watts Peak Pulse Power Dissipation (10/1000 µs)
Available in Numerous Voltage Types Ranging from 17.0V to 280V
Easy Mounting to Printed Circuit Boards
UL 94V-0 Flammability Classification
APPLICATIONS
Relay Drives
Motor (Start/Stop) Back EMF Protection
Module Lightning Protection

NOTES
Note 1: P = Preferred part. For preferred parts and bidirectional
devices, consult factory for minimum order quantity and
delivery. Part numbers shown are unidirectional devices.
Add “C” or “CA” suffix to specify bidirectional devices, such
as 15KPA17C or 15KPA17CA.
Note 2: VF = 7.5V @ 200A, 8.3 ms - 1/2 sine wave (Unidirectional).
