The P6KE47CARL is a robust transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode from STMicroelectronics, designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage spikes and surges. This high-performance component is specifically engineered to safeguard circuits against transient overvoltage events such as electrostatic discharge (ESD), electrical fast transients (EFT), and lightning strikes.
Constructed with STMicroelectronics' cutting-edge technology, the P6KE47CARL offers a peak pulse power dissipation of 600W for a 10/1000µs waveform. This ensures reliable protection for your devices during momentary voltage spikes. The diode operates in a stand-off voltage of 47V, which makes it suitable for a wide range of applications, including but not limited to consumer electronics, automotive systems, and industrial equipment.
Key Features:
- Peak Pulse Power: 600W (10/1000µs)
- Stand-off Voltage: 47V
- Clamping Voltage: Low clamping voltage at specified current
- Response Time: Fast response time typically less than 1.0ps from 0V to BV min
- Package: Available in DO-15 axial-lead package for easy PCB mounting
- Certifications: Compliant with the following standards: IEC 61000-4-2, IEC 61000-4-4, and IEC 61000-4-5
The device's fast response time ensures that it reacts almost instantaneously to transient overvoltages, thus providing immediate protection for the downstream components. Additionally, the P6KE47CARL features a low clamping voltage, which reduces the stress on the protected component at the time of the surge.
STMicroelectronics has packaged the P6KE47CARL in a DO-15 axial-lead package, which not only facilitates easy mounting on printed circuit boards but also provides a robust physical structure to withstand mechanical stress.
Compliance with international standards IEC 61000-4-2 (ESD), IEC 61000-4-4 (EFT), and IEC 61000-4-5 (Surge) ensures that the P6KE47CARL meets the rigorous requirements for electronic component protection. This makes the P6KE47CARL an ideal choice for designers looking to enhance the durability and reliability of their electronic systems.
