Description
Littelfuse 5KP22CA TVS Diode 5kW 22V Transient Voltage Suppressor Lot of 10
The Littelfuse 5KP22CA is a bidirectional 5kW transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode designed to protect sensitive electronics from voltage spikes, electrostatic discharge (ESD), and inductive switching transients. With a standoff voltage of 22V and a response time of 5.0 nanoseconds, it clamps transient overvoltages rapidly in both directions, making it well suited for bipolar and AC circuit protection applications. This listing is for a lot of 10 components.

Applications
TVS diodes in the 5KP series are standard protection components used across industrial electronics, power supplies, telecommunications equipment, automotive electronics, and motor control circuits. The 5KP22CA's 5kW peak pulse rating makes it a robust choice for protecting circuits against lightning-induced surges, inductive load switching spikes, and ESD events in environments where transient energy levels are high. The bidirectional (CA) configuration makes it suitable for protecting AC lines and bipolar signal lines where voltage swings occur in both polarities. These diodes are widely used in surge protection modules, I/O protection networks, and on power bus lines where a fast, hard clamp is needed. The DO-201 axial package allows straightforward through-hole board mounting and has been a long-standing standard package for high-power TVS devices.
These Littelfuse 5KP22CA TVS diodes are new, unused components. As visible in the photos, the bodies show minor surface weathering consistent with age and storage — this is cosmetic only and does not affect solderability or function. They are sold in a lot of 10, supplied on a tape carrier strip as shown. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions. Please note: We have multiple units in stock — yours may not be the one shown in the photos, however, it will be similar in condition and function.
