SMCJ28CAQ-13-F - Transient Voltage Suppressor from Diodes Incorporated

The SMCJ28CAQ-13-F is a high-quality transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode designed by Diodes Incorporated to provide your sensitive electronic circuits with robust protection against voltage spikes and surges. This TVS diode is specifically engineered to shield your devices from transient voltage events such as electrostatic discharge (ESD), electrical fast transients (EFT), and secondary lightning effects, ensuring the reliability and longevity of your products.

With its bidirectional configuration, the SMCJ28CAQ-13-F is capable of suppressing both positive and negative transient voltages, making it an ideal choice for AC applications or where the polarity of the transient could vary. Its standoff voltage is rated at 28V, which means it can comfortably protect circuits that operate around this voltage level without compromising the normal operation of your electronics.

The SMCJ28CAQ-13-F comes in a low-profile SMC package, which is favored for its compact size and its ability to handle high thermal and power loads. This package is also known for its excellent solderability and environmental ruggedness, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, including industrial, commercial, and consumer electronics.

Key features of the SMCJ28CAQ-13-F include a peak pulse power dissipation of 1500W (10/1000μs waveform), response time less than 1ns from 0V to BV min, and a built-in strain relief that provides a robust physical connection to the printed circuit board. Furthermore, it meets the MSL level 1 standard, per J-STD-020, and is lead-free, halogen-free, and RoHS compliant, reflecting Diodes Incorporated's commitment to environmental responsibility.

Whether you're designing power supplies, communication systems, or any other electronic equipment vulnerable to voltage transients, the SMCJ28CAQ-13-F is a reliable component that offers peace of mind through its excellent surge protection capabilities. By integrating this TVS diode into your designs, you can enhance the protection of your circuits and ensure the stable performance of your products under harsh electrical conditions.
