About this manual

The 3KP series are 3000 W transient voltage suppressors offered in both unidirectional and bidirectional versions. They feature glass‑passivated die construction, excellent clamping capability, and UL‑flame‑rated molded plastic cases. The devices cover a wide standoff voltage range from 5 V to 170 V and are suitable for a variety of power‑semiconductor applications.

Mechanical data include JEDEC P‑600 molded plastic packaging with axial leads. Maximum ratings specify a peak pulse power dissipation of 3000 W, a peak forward surge current of 250 A, and a steady‑state power dissipation of 8 W. The operating temperature range is –55 °C to +175 °C. Ordering information lists tape‑and‑reel (800 units) and box (250 units) options, with product numbers such as 3KPxx‑T3 and 3KPxxA.
