Diodes Incorporated SMBJ85CA-13 TVS Diode

The SMBJ85CA-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a robust transient voltage suppression (TVS) diode, designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients induced by system level events such as lightning, electrostatic discharge (ESD), and electrical fast transients (EFT). This device is particularly suitable for the protection of voltage-sensitive components that require a high level of reliability and performance.

Key Features:

• Bi-directional Protection: The SMBJ85CA-13 is a bi-directional TVS diode, which means it can provide protection for electronic circuits from voltage spikes in both positive and negative directions.
• High Surge Capability: With a peak pulse power dissipation of 600W (@10/1000μs waveform), this diode is capable of handling significant surge events without degradation.
• Stand-off Voltage: It has a stand-off voltage of 85V, which makes it suitable for a wide range of applications where this voltage level is prevalent.
• Fast Response Time: The device features an exceptionally fast response time to transient events, ensuring quick and effective protection for your electronic components.
• Low Incremental Surge Resistance: The low incremental surge resistance (RθJA) helps in minimizing the voltage drop across the diode during a surge event, thus providing better clamping performance.
• DO-214AA Package: The SMBJ85CA-13 comes in a compact DO-214AA package, also known as an SMB package, which is suitable for automated pick and place assembly processes and saves valuable board space.
