Detailed Specs
The SMCJ110A-TP features a standoff voltage of 110V. It is a unidirectional TVS diode. The peak pulse power dissipation is typically rated at 1500W for a 10/1000μs waveform. The clamping voltage is a key parameter that indicates the maximum voltage the TVS diode will allow across its terminals during a surge event. The operating temperature range is usually between -55°C to +150°C. Refer to the manufacturer's datasheet for detailed electrical specifications, including the clamping voltage at specific test currents, reverse leakage current, forward voltage drop, and surge current capability. The datasheet also provides information on the device's capacitance and its ability to handle repetitive surge events.
