Product details
Overview
1.5KE110A-T from Diodes Incorporated is a unidirectional 1500W transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode in DO-201 package, designed for primary-level overvoltage protection in DC power rails and signal lines. It features a 94.0V reverse standoff voltage, 105.0V minimum breakdown voltage at 1.0mA test current, 152.0V maximum clamping voltage at 9.9A peak pulse current, and operates across –55°C to +175°C.
For engineers reviewing the 1.5KE110A-T datasheet, 1.5KE110A-T pinout, 1.5KE110A-T application, or 1.5KE110A-T equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping voltage margin relative to protected IC VMAX, peak pulse current handling under IEC 61000-4-5 surge waveforms, thermal derating above +25°C, and axial lead solderability per MIL-STD-202 Method 208.
Technical Context
This unidirectional TVS diode operates as a voltage-clamped crowbar device triggered by transient overvoltage events exceeding its reverse standoff threshold. Its glass-passivated silicon junction ensures stable breakdown characteristics and low leakage (<5.0μA at 94.0V).
The device responds within <1.0ns to ESD or lightning-induced surges and sustains 1500W peak pulse power for 1.0ms (non-repetitive), with steady-state power dissipation rated at 5.0W at 75°C lead temperature. Its voltage temperature coefficient is +0.107%/°C, enabling predictable clamping behavior across industrial temperature ranges.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Peak Pulse Power | 1500W at 1.0ms pulse - handles IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 (4kV/2Ω) surge without failure |
| Reverse Standoff Voltage | 94.0V - maximum continuous DC operating voltage before significant leakage |
| Breakdown Voltage | 105.0V min @ 1.0mA - guaranteed conduction onset under transient stress |
| Clamping Voltage | 152.0V max @ 9.9A - limits downstream voltage to safe level during surge |
| Peak Pulse Current | 9.9A @ 1.0ms - quantifies surge energy absorption capacity |
| Operating Temperature | –55°C to +175°C - supports under-hood automotive and industrial power supply designs |
| Leakage Current | ≤5.0μA @ 94.0V - ensures minimal standby power loss in always-on systems |

Applications
| Industrial Power Supply Input Protection | Automotive Body Control Module (BCM) CAN Bus Line Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: 48V DC input stage of programmable logic controller (PLC) power module exposed to load dump and inductive switching transients. IC Role / Device Role: Primary overvoltage clamp limiting rail voltage to ≤152V during 100A/10ms load dump events. Use Value: Prevents damage to upstream rectifier diodes and downstream DC-DC controllers by absorbing up to 1500W surge energy. |
Use Scenario: 12V supply rail feeding CAN transceiver in vehicle door module subject to ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a (load dump). IC Role / Device Role: Unidirectional TVS placed between VCC and GND to clamp supply overvoltage before it reaches transceiver VIO pins. Use Value: Maintains CAN bus functionality by holding rail voltage below 152V during 60V/100ms transients, avoiding brownout or latch-up. |
| Telecom AC-DC Adapter Surge Protection | Renewable Energy Inverter DC Link Protection |
Use Scenario: Secondary-side 24V output of telecom wall adapter subjected to conducted surges via IEC 61000-4-5 coupling networks. IC Role / Device Role: Final-stage TVS on regulated output rail, positioned after bulk capacitor and before connector. Use Value: Limits transient overshoot to <152V, protecting connected PoE injectors and Ethernet PHYs from EOS damage. |
Use Scenario: 600V DC link in solar microinverter exposed to lightning-induced surges on PV string inputs. IC Role / Device Role: Cascaded TVS (with higher-voltage devices) providing secondary clamping layer alongside MOVs and GDTs. Use Value: Adds precise low-clamp-voltage layer to reduce stress on IGBT gate drivers and DC-link capacitors during fast-rising transients. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ110A | DO-214AA package, 1.0kW rating, 152V clamping at 6.6A, lower surge capacity | Surface-mount alternative for space-constrained PCBs; not suitable for >1.5kW surge duty | Select when board area is limited and peak surge energy does not exceed 1.0kJ (1.0ms @ 6.6A) |
| 1.5SMC110A | SMD DO-214AB package, same 1500W rating, identical electrical specs, but SMT-compatible | Drop-in replacement for automated assembly; requires reflow profile validation for axial-to-SMT transition | Choose for new designs targeting full SMT production; verify thermal pad layout matches 1.5SMC thermal resistance |
Compared with 1.5KE110A-T, SMBJ110A offers smaller footprint but reduced surge margin, while 1.5SMC110A delivers identical protection in surface-mount form-enabling direct substitution only where mechanical mounting and thermal path constraints permit.

FAQ
What is the difference between 1.5KE110A and 1.5KE110CA?
The 1.5KE110A is unidirectional, with cathode marked by a band and intended for DC rail protection where polarity is fixed. The 1.5KE110CA is bidirectional, lacking polarity marking, and used in AC-coupled or differential signal lines like RS-485 or CAN where voltage swings occur in both directions. Their clamping voltages and surge ratings are identical.
Can 1.5KE110A-T be used in place of 1.5KE110A-B?
Yes-both share identical electrical specifications and DO-201 packaging. The suffix "-T" denotes 1k tape-and-reel packaging, while "-B" indicates bulk packaging. Mechanical dimensions, thermal performance, and surge capability are fully interchangeable; only logistics and assembly method differ.
Is 1.5KE110A-T compliant with AEC-Q200?
No-1.5KE110A-T is not AEC-Q200 qualified. Diodes Incorporated explicitly states that AEC-Q200 qualification requires special change control, PPAP capability, and IATF 16949 manufacturing; this part is standard commercial-grade. For automotive-qualified equivalents, contact Diodes' automotive team directly.
How does temperature affect the clamping voltage of 1.5KE110A-T?
Clamping voltage increases with junction temperature at +0.107%/°C. At +125°C, clamping rises ~5.4% above room-temperature value (152.0V → ~160.3V). Designers must ensure worst-case clamping remains below protected IC absolute maximum ratings, especially in high-ambient environments like engine compartments.
