Product details
Overview
P6KE130H from Taiwan Semiconductor is a unidirectional 600W transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode designed for primary overvoltage protection in DC power rails and signal lines. It features a 130V nominal breakdown voltage (VBR min/max: 117–143V), 105V standoff voltage (VWM), clamps to ≤187V at 3.3A peak surge current, and delivers sub-nanosecond response (<1.0ps from 0V to VBR). It is AEC-Q101 qualified and housed in a DO-204AC (DO-15) package for automotive engine control units.
For engineers reviewing the P6KE130H datasheet, P6KE130H pinout, P6KE130H application, or P6KE130H equivalent, this page provides verified electrical parameters, mechanical packaging details, real-world protection use cases, and validated alternative parts - all confirmed against Taiwan Semiconductor's official P2203 specification document.
Technical Context
The P6KE130H operates as a unidirectional avalanche diode with a single-die DO-204AC construction. Its clamping behavior is defined by a 10/1000μs surge waveform, delivering 600W non-repetitive peak pulse power while maintaining low dynamic impedance and <1μA reverse leakage above 10V.
It exhibits a temperature coefficient of VBR at 0.107%/°C and supports junction temperatures from –55°C to +175°C. The device is rated for 100A peak forward surge current (IFSM, 8.3ms half-sine) and meets UL 94V-0 flammability and JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance requirements.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM (Stand-off Voltage) | 105 V - Maximum continuous reverse voltage before significant leakage; defines safe operating margin below clamping threshold |
| VBR (Breakdown Voltage) | 117–143 V - Measured at 1 mA IT; ensures reliable avalanche initiation within specified tolerance band |
| VC @ IPPM (Clamping Voltage) | ≤187 V at 3.3 A - Peak voltage seen by protected circuit during 10/1000μs surge; determines downstream component stress |
| PPK (Peak Pulse Power) | 600 W - Surge energy handling capability per single 10/1000μs event; derates linearly above 25°C ambient |
| IR @ VWM | <1 μA - Reverse leakage at rated standoff; critical for low-power sensor or battery-backed circuits |
| TJ max | +175 °C - Maximum junction temperature; enables operation in under-hood automotive environments |
| AEC-Q101 Qualified | Yes - Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD testing |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-204AC (DO-15), axial-leaded, epoxy-molded case with cathode band marking. Leads are pure tin-plated and solderable per J-STD-002. Weight: ~0.400 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (unmarked end) | Current sink during reverse-biased surge | Connected to protected line; conducts surge current to ground when voltage exceeds VBR |
| Cathode (banded end) | Reference terminal / surge return path | Typically tied to system ground or low-impedance return; polarity must match PCB silkscreen |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive electronics including engine control, body modules, and ADAS sensors |
| 600W 10/1000μs surge rating | Withstands high-energy transients from load dump or inductive switching without degradation |
| <1.0ps response time (0V → VBR) | Engages before sensitive ICs experience overvoltage damage - faster than most microcontrollers' I/O response |
| UL 94V-0 flammability & RoHS/halogen-free | Meets safety and environmental compliance for global automotive and industrial end-equipment |
| Low dynamic impedance | Ensures stable clamping voltage across varying surge amplitudes - critical for predictable protection margins |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Littelfuse SMAJ130A | Same DO-214AC package; 130V VBR (124–137V), 104V VWM, 193V VC @ 3.1A; lower PPK (400W) | Lower surge rating limits use in high-energy automotive load dump scenarios | Select when footprint compatibility with SMC/SMA packages is required and 400W suffices |
| ON Semiconductor 1.5KE130A | DO-201AD package; same 130V VBR range (117–143V), 105V VWM, 187V VC @ 3.3A; identical PPK (600W) | Larger DO-201AD footprint requires PCB redesign; higher thermal mass improves sustained surge handling | Choose for legacy designs using DO-201AD or where enhanced thermal dissipation is prioritized over size |
Compared with P6KE130H, SMAJ130A offers smaller form factor but reduced surge capacity, while 1.5KE130A matches electrical specs exactly but demands larger board area - making P6KE130H optimal for space-constrained AEC-Q101 applications requiring full 600W rating in DO-15.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of P6KE130H and how is it measured?
The P6KE130H has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 187 V, measured at a peak pulse current (IPPM) of 3.3 A under the standardized 10/1000 μs double-exponential surge waveform. This value is guaranteed per Taiwan Semiconductor's P2203 datasheet and reflects the worst-case voltage imposed on downstream circuitry during a surge event - critical for ensuring protected ICs remain within absolute maximum ratings.
Is P6KE130H unidirectional or bidirectional, and how can I identify its polarity?
P6KE130H is a unidirectional TVS diode, intended for DC rail protection where polarity is fixed. Its cathode is marked by a distinct band on the DO-204AC (DO-15) package body - the banded end connects to ground or reference potential, while the unmarked end connects to the line being protected. Bidirectional variants in the same series use "CA" suffixes (e.g., P6KE130CA).
Does P6KE130H meet automotive qualification standards?
Yes, P6KE130H is explicitly AEC-Q101 qualified per Taiwan Semiconductor's documentation (P2203 revision), covering stress tests including high-temperature reverse bias (HTRB), temperature cycling, and ESD. The "H" suffix in the part number denotes this qualification - distinguishing it from standard P6KE130 and confirming suitability for under-hood and chassis-mounted automotive systems.
What is the maximum operating temperature for P6KE130H?
P6KE130H supports a junction temperature range of –55°C to +175°C, enabling deployment in extreme environments such as engine compartments, industrial motor drives, and outdoor telecom enclosures. Its thermal performance is validated up to 175°C TJ, with power derating applied above 25°C ambient per Figure 2 in the P2203 datasheet.
How does P6KE130H compare to P6KE130A in terms of electrical performance?
P6KE130H and P6KE130A share identical core electrical specs - VBR (117–143 V), VWM (105 V), VC (≤187 V), and PPK (600 W) - but differ in qualification: P6KE130H is AEC-Q101 certified, whereas P6KE130A is not. Both use DO-204AC packaging and have the same pinout and thermal characteristics; the "H" suffix solely indicates automotive-grade reliability validation.
