Additional Details:

The SMF170A GN features a standoff voltage (Vrwm) of 170V and a peak pulse power dissipation of 200W. It operates over a temperature range of -55°C to +150°C. The clamping voltage is carefully controlled to ensure effective protection of sensitive circuits. The small size and robust performance make it suitable for a wide range of applications where overvoltage protection is critical. The SMF170A GN is designed to meet industry standards for surge protection and reliability. Panjit is a well-known manufacturer of semiconductor devices, recognized for quality and performance. The unidirectional configuration ensures that the device only conducts when the voltage exceeds the breakdown voltage in one direction, providing targeted protection.
