Product Overview: SMBJ24CA-13

The SMBJ24CA-13 is a robust transient voltage suppression (TVS) diode designed by Diodes Incorporated, a leading manufacturer in the semiconductor market. This high-quality electronic component is engineered to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients induced by system-level electrostatic discharge (ESD), lightning, and other transient voltage events.

Key Features

• Bi-directional Protection: The SMBJ24CA-13 offers bi-directional clamping which makes it ideal for AC applications or where the polarity is reversible, ensuring comprehensive protection for your circuits.
• High Surge Capability: With its ability to withstand high surge currents, this TVS diode is capable of protecting against severe transient threats, including lightning surges as defined by IEC 61000-4-5 standards.
• Low Incremental Surge Resistance: The device features a low incremental surge resistance, which ensures minimal voltage drop during a surge event, thus providing better performance and reliability.
• Stand-off Voltage: It has a stand-off voltage of 24V, which is the maximum voltage that can be applied over the diode without causing it to conduct in the reverse direction.
• JEDEC Standard: Packaged in a DO-214AA (SMB) package, the SMBJ24CA-13 meets or exceeds the requirements of the JEDEC standard, ensuring compatibility with standard mounting techniques and world-class quality.
