Part Details for 1.5KE100CA by Suzhou Good-Ark Electronics Co Ltd

The recommended footprint and land pattern for the 1.5KE100CA can be found in the manufacturer's application note or packaging information. Typically, a rectangular pad with a size of 1.5mm x 0.8mm is recommended, with a solder mask opening of 1.2mm x 0.5mm.

To ensure proper soldering and avoid solder bridging, use a soldering iron with a fine tip, and apply a small amount of solder paste to the pads. Use a soldering technique such as 'drag soldering' to fill the gap between the pads. Inspect the solder joints under a microscope or with a magnifying glass to ensure they are clean and free of bridging.

The maximum operating temperature range for the 1.5KE100CA is -65°C to 150°C, as specified in the datasheet. However, it's recommended to derate the device's performance at temperatures above 125°C to ensure reliable operation.

The 1.5KE100CA is designed for transient voltage suppression and is not intended for high-frequency applications. Its parasitic capacitance and inductance may affect the circuit's performance at high frequencies. If you need a TVS diode for high-frequency applications, consider a different device specifically designed for that purpose.

To select the correct TVS diode, consider the following factors: voltage rating, peak pulse current, clamping voltage, response time, and package type. Ensure the TVS diode's specifications meet or exceed the requirements of your application. Consult the datasheet and manufacturer's application notes for guidance.
