TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) diodes are a type of semiconductor device that is designed to protect sensitive electrical components and systems from the sudden increase in voltage known as a surge or transient. The P6KE15CA-B is a unidirectional, low capacitance Transient Voltage Suppressor designed to protect sensitive components from voltage transients caused by electrical noise, lightning or other high voltage/high current events. It is anaxial-lead glass-passivated junction diode specially designed to protect voltage-sensitive components from high-energy pulses and transients caused by electromagnetic interference (EMI), lightning strikes, electrostatic discharges, and other transient phenomena.

The P6KE15CA-B consists of a glass passivated junction diode mounted in an axial-lead DO-15 package. The device is designed to safely clamp high-voltage transient events up to 15V. It is rated for a maximum peak pulse current of 6A (10/1000 μs waveform). The breakdown voltage is 15V, and the device has a minimum response time of 5ns and a maximum capacitance of 15pF. It is ideal for protecting equipment located in harsh environmental conditions or near high-voltage lines.

The P6KE15CA-B TVS diode is often used in protection circuits for low voltage systems in industrial, automotive, and consumer applications. It is commonly found in data communications systems, power supplies, and RS485 line protection. It is also used in automotive systems, as well as in consumer electronics such as smart phones and tablets. The device can be used to protect equipment against overvoltage conditions from a variety of sources such as, lightning, electrostatic discharge and power cross.

The P6KE15CA-B TVS diode works by clamping the surge voltage and limiting the otherwise dangerous current to low levels that will not harm the protected component. It is connected across the component to be protected, between the power supply and the ground. When a voltage spike occurs, the diode will conduct, thereby preventing the high voltage from damaging the circuitry. This is due to the fact that the diode can respond quickly to voltage transients, limiting the voltage to a safe level, while also limiting the current. This ensures that the circuit is not damaged by the transient voltage.

In conclusion, P6KE15CA-B Transient Voltage Suppressor diode is an effective solution for protecting sensitive electrical components from high voltage transients. It is a low capacitance device with a maximum breakdown voltage of 15V and a maximum peak pulse current of 6A (10/1000 μs waveform). The low capacitance ensures that the device will respond quickly to transient voltage events, ensuring that the component will not be damaged. It is commonly used in a range of different applications, such as industrial, automotive and consumer electronics, as well as data communications systems and power supplies.
