Manufacturer: ['diodes-zetex', 'micro-commerical-co', 'diodes', 'rectron']

series introduction

The 1.5KE20CA-T Series is a premium line of bidirectional transient voltage suppression (TVS) diodes, meticulously engineered to protect sensitive electronic components from voltage spikes and transients. These devices are particularly recognized for their robust performance and reliability, making them an ideal choice for a multitude of applications in both consumer and industrial electronics.

One of the standout features of the 1.5KE20CA-T Series is its ability to clamp transient voltages effectively, ensuring that the protected circuitry remains secure under sudden voltage fluctuations. With a breakdown voltage of approximately 20V, these TVS diodes offer a fast response time, typically in the picosecond range, which is crucial for safeguarding devices in high-speed data lines and power supply circuits. The series utilizes a glass passivated junction, enhancing its durability and providing high levels of electrical insulation, which is vital in preventing premature failure due to environmental stressors.

The design characteristics of the 1.5KE20CA-T Series include a compact DO-214AA (SMC) package, which allows for easy surface mounting and integration into various circuit layouts. This compact size, coupled with a high peak pulse power rating of up to 1500W (for a 10/1000μs waveform), ensures that the diodes can handle substantial transient events while occupying minimal board space. The series is also RoHS compliant, aligning with modern environmental standards and making it a suitable choice for eco-conscious manufacturers.

These TVS diodes find suitable use cases in a range of applications, including automotive electronics, telecommunications, consumer electronics, and industrial automation systems. Typical applications include protection for data lines, power supplies, and sensitive signal lines in devices such as smartphones, computers, and networking equipment. By incorporating the 1.5KE20CA-T Series in designs, engineers can enhance the reliability of their systems, ensuring longevity and performance stability even in the face of unpredictable electrical surges.
