HIGH CURRENT THRU-HOLE DISCRETE TVS DIODE
30,000 WATTS
DESCRIPTION
The 30KP A family is a series of discrete 30,000
Watt, silicon transient voltage suppressor
diodes designed for use in applications where
large voltage transients can permanently
damage voltage sensitive components and
equipment.
The 30KPA series has a peak pulse power
(PPP) rating of 30,000 Watts for an 10/1000
µs waveshape. This series is available in
voltages ranging from 30.0 Volts to 280 Volts
with 5 percent and 10 percent tolerances.
Both tolerances are referenced to the power
supply output or operating voltage level.
FEATURES
●30,000 Watts Peak Pulse Power Dissipation (10/1000 µs)
●Available in Numerous Voltage Types Ranging from 30.0V to 280V
●Easy Mounting to Printed Circuit Boards
●Unidirectional & Bidirectional Configuration
●UL 94V-0 Flammability Classification
APPLICATIONS
●Relay Drives
●Motor (Start/Stop) Back EMF Protection
●Module Lightning Protection
MAXIMUM RATINGS
●30,000 Watts Peak Pulse Dissipation
@25°C (See Figure 1)
●Operating & Storage Temperature:
-55°C to +150°C
●Forward Surge Rating: 100A, 1/20
second @25°C
●Steady State Power Dissipation:
5.0W TA = 25°C
●Repetition Rate (Duty Cycle): 0.05%
●tClamping (0 Volts to V(BR) min):
Unidirectional < 1 x 10-12 seconds
Bidirectional < 1 x 10-9 seconds
MECHANICAL CHARACTERISTICS
●Package: Molded Case
●Approximate Weight: 13 grams
●Positive Terminal Marked with Band
(Unidirectional Only)

NOTES
Note 1: VF = 15V @ 200A, 8.3 ms - 1/2 sine wave (Unidirectional).
Note 2: Part numbers shown are unidirectional devices. Add “C” or
“CA” suffix to specify bidirectional devices; such as 30KPA30C or
30KPA30CA.
