SMCJ28AQ-13-F TVS Diode by Diodes Incorporated

The SMCJ28AQ-13-F is a robust transient voltage suppression (TVS) diode designed and manufactured by Diodes Incorporated, a leading global provider of discrete, logic, analog, and mixed-signal semiconductors. This product is specifically engineered to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients induced by system-induced surge events and electrostatic discharge (ESD).

With its stand-off voltage of 28V, the SMCJ28AQ-13-F is capable of dissipating ESD strikes at the maximum level specified in the IEC 61000-4-2 international standard, without any performance degradation. This makes it an ideal choice for safeguarding voltage-sensitive components which may be exposed to high transient conditions, commonly found in industrial, telecommunications, computing, and automotive applications.

The device is packaged in the industry-standard SMC package, which offers a compact footprint while delivering high surge capability. Its design is optimized for high reliability and features a 1500W peak pulse power capability on a 10/1000μs waveform, which ensures a high level of protection for your electronic circuits.

Key features of the SMCJ28AQ-13-F TVS diode include:

• Low incremental surge resistance
• Operating junction temperature range: -55°C to +150°C
• Typical failure mode is short from over-specified voltage or current
• Meets MSL level 1, per J-STD-020, LF maximum peak of 260°C
• ESD protection of up to 30kV (Air), 30kV (Contact)
• Environmental-friendly: RoHS and REACH compliant

The SMCJ28AQ-13-F is designed not only to protect against transient overvoltage but also to minimize the risk of damage to the protected component during its failure mode. The TVS diode is a self-restoring component that returns to its high impedance state after the transient has passed, thus allowing the circuit to resume normal operation.

This component is also Halogen-free, reflecting Diodes Incorporated's commitment to environmental sustainability. For designers and engineers looking for a reliable and high-performance solution to protect their systems against voltage transients, the SMCJ28AQ-13-F from Diodes Incorporated is an excellent choice.
