The 3.0SMCJ5.0A-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a robust surface-mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients induced by system-induced surge events and electrostatic discharge (ESD). This TVS diode is specifically engineered to safeguard components which operate at a nominal voltage level of 5.0 volts.

Key Features

• Stand-off Voltage: The device has a stand-off voltage of 5.0V, making it suitable for a range of applications where this voltage level is critical for operation.
• Peak Pulse Power: It can handle a peak pulse power of 3000 Watts (3kW) for a short duration of 10/1000μs waveform, which demonstrates its capability to withstand high-energy transients.
• Clamping Voltage: Upon encountering a surge event, the clamping voltage of this TVS diode is activated, providing a rapid response to limit the excess voltage and prevent damage to the protected component.
• Low Incremental Surge Resistance: The device features a low incremental surge resistance, minimizing the voltage drop across the diode when a surge occurs.
• Availability: Offered in a DO-214AB (SMC) package, the 3.0SMCJ5.0A-13 is compatible with automated assembly processes, and its compact design is ideal for space-constrained applications.
