SMCJ11A-13 Transient Voltage Suppressor from Diodes Incorporated

The SMCJ11A-13 is a robust transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode from Diodes Incorporated, designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage spikes and transients induced by lightning and other transient voltage events. This high-quality TVS diode is an ideal choice for safeguarding voltage-sensitive components which can be affected by these sudden surges, ensuring the reliability and longevity of your electronic devices.

Key Features:

• Stand-off Voltage: The device provides a stand-off voltage of 11V, which is the maximum voltage that can be applied over the TVS diode without causing it to conduct significant current.
• Peak Pulse Power: It offers an impressive peak pulse power dissipation of 1500 Watts at 10/1000μs waveform, which is a measure of the diode's ability to manage energy from transient events.
• Clamping Voltage: When subjected to a high-voltage spike, the SMCJ11A-13 clamps at a maximum voltage of 18.2V, ensuring that any excess voltage does not reach and damage the protected components.
• Reverse Stand-off Voltage: The reverse stand-off voltage is specified to provide a margin between the operating voltage and the stand-off voltage, ensuring the device is not prematurely activated.
• Low Incremental Surge Resistance: The device features low incremental surge resistance, minimizing the voltage drop across the diode when a surge occurs.
• Availability: Offered in a DO-214AB package, the SMCJ11A-13 is compatible with high-volume electronic assembly processes, including automated pick and place.
• Environmental Compliance: It is compliant with RoHS and REACH requirements, ensuring that it meets the latest environmental standards for electronic components.

Applications:

The SMCJ11A-13 TVS diode is commonly used in a variety of applications, including:

• Power supply protection
• Industrial systems
• Telecommunications equipment
