The CA suffix indicates bidirectional TVS protection, useful where the protected line can swing in both directions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat is the power rating?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a 600W peak pulse TVS diode, typically specified using a 10\/1000 us surge waveform. It is not a continuous 600W power device.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat voltage circuit is it suitable for?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is commonly used around 30V-class working lines, with a 30.8V standoff class and 36V breakdown class. Always check the actual circuit voltage and surge requirement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCan I use it across a DC supply?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, if the normal supply voltage stays below the standoff rating and the expected surge energy is within the diode rating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIs it the same as 6KE36A?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. 6KE36A is normally unidirectional, while 6KE36CA is bidirectional. Match the suffix before replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat happens if the surge is too large?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA TVS diode can fail short if exposed to energy above its rating. Use correct fusing, PCB layout, and surge design for high-energy circuits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eImportant Note\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease verify standoff voltage, breakdown voltage, clamping voltage, surge waveform, package, and polarity requirement before replacing or designing with this diode. TVS diodes are protective components and must be selected according to the actual circuit and surge energy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Embeded Studio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62307970220402,"sku":"ES-6KE36CA-TVS-DO15","price":15.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/7935\/3202\/files\/6KE36CA.webp?v=1788974647","url":"https:\/\/embededstudio.com\/products\/6ke36ca-600w-36v-bidirectional-tvs-diode-do15","provider":"Embeded Studio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
