SMCJ130A-TR from STMicroelectronics
The SMCJ130A-TR is a robust surface-mount Transil™ TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) diode designed by STMicroelectronics to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients induced by system-level events such as load dump and lightning. Ideal for high-density boards where space is at a premium, this TVS diode is housed in a convenient SMC (DO-214AB) package, ensuring easy integration into various circuit designs.
Key Features
- Stand-off voltage: 130V - This parameter indicates the maximum voltage that the device can tolerate without conducting in its standby state.
- Peak pulse power: 1500W (10/1000μs) - The SMCJ130A-TR can absorb up to 1500 watts of peak pulse power, providing a high level of protection against electrical surges.
- Low clamping factor - Ensures that the voltage to which sensitive components are exposed during a transient event is kept to a minimum.
- Fast response time - The device reacts quickly to transient events, minimizing the risk of damage to the protected components.
