Vishay introduced a new series of surface-mount TransZorb transient voltage suppressors (TVS) in the low-profile DO-214AA package. The SMBJXXD series achieves ±3,5% breakdown voltage tolerance and very low reverse leakage current. Compared to previous-generation devices, the new series offers excellent clamping features with higher peak pulse surge current and lower clamping voltage for better input protection of IC devices.
The devices are designed to protect sensitive electronics against voltage transients induced by inductive load switching and lightning. They are ideal for DC adaptor power line protection, power supply snubber circuits, and general voltage surge protection in consumer, computer, industrial and telecommunication equipment.
Available with unidirectional polarity, the SMBJXXD series consists of 47 TVS with stand-off voltages from 5 V to 188 V. The devices offer a temperature range from -55°C to +150°C and meet the MSL Level 1 standard, per STD-020, LF maximum peak of 260°C. Ideal for automated placement, they are RoHS-compliant and halogen-free.
