TVS Diodes Axial Leaded - 15k A > AK15-Y Series AK15-Y Series Ro HS Pb e4 Agency Approvals Agency Agency File Number E128662 Maximum Ratings and Thermal Characteristics (TA=25OC unless otherwise noted) Parameter Symbol Value Operating Storage Temperature Range TSTG -55 to 150 Operating Junction Temperature Range -55 to 125 Current Rating1 IPP 15 Note: 1. Rated IPP measured with 8/20 pulse as defined in IEC 61000-4-5 2nd edition. Unit °C ºC k A Functional Diagram Bi-direcctional Descriptions The AK15-Y series of high power TVS diode is specially designed for meeting severe surge test environment of both AC and DC line protection applications. It Features a very fast response and ultra low clamping characteristics as pared to MOVs (Metal Oxide Varistors). It acplishes this by virtue of the Littelfuse Foldback TM technology,which provides a clamping voltage lower than the avalanche voltage (but above the rated working voltage); therefore, any voltage rise due to increased current conduction is maintained at a minimum magnitude, providing the best possible protection level. These AK ponents can be connected in series and / or parallel to create a very high surge current protection solution. Features - No wear-out nor degrade surge rating over multiple transient events as long as within surge capability - Ultra high power rating - Very low clamping voltage - Both reflow and wave soldering capable - Ultra pact: less than one-tenth the size of traditional discrete...
