概述
Description
1.5KE440A is a high-power transient-voltage-suppression (TVS) diode from the 1.5KE family. It protects high‑voltage power electronics from voltage spikes by clamping surges quickly to safe levels. Key specs (typical): about 1500 W peak pulse power (10/1000 μs), and a working standoff voltage VRWM around 440 V. The breakdown voltage is near the mid‑400 V to 500 V range, and the clamped voltage depends on surge current (generally well above VRWM). Response time is essentially instantaneous (nanoseconds). Applications include protecting DC buses, AC mains interfaces, power supplies, motor drives, solar inverters, and telecom equipment. When selecting, verify whether the variant is unidirectional or bidirectional and consult the datasheet for exact VBR, VCL, and peak pulse current ratings for your specific use case.
Equivalent
1.5KE440A is a 1500 W bidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode with about 440 V rating. Direct equivalent: Littelfuse 1.5KE440A. Other brands offer similar 440 V, ~1.5 kW bidirectional TVS parts (e.g., Vishay/Nexperia/Bourns in the same power class). When substituting, compare VR (standoff), VBR, IPP, and package. Use a cross-reference from the distributor to ensure exact electrical/footprint fit.
Features
Here are the key features of the 1.5KE440A transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode:
- 1500 W peak pulse power (8/20 µs)
- Stand-off voltage VR = 440 V
- Breakdown voltage VBR typically ~468–540 V (range per datasheet)
- Clamping voltage VC at IPP around ~700–780 V
- Fast response time (essentially instantaneous, nanosecond-scale)
- Low leakage current at VR (microamps typical)
- Operating case temperature range: -55°C to +125°C
- RoHS compliant (lead-free)
- Suitable for high-energy surge suppression on power lines, telecom, and DC bus applications
Note: Verify the exact VBR and VC tolerances in the official datasheet for your batch, and confirm whether your application requires a unidirectional or bidirectional variant.
