Littelfuse 1-Element Bi-Directional TVS Diode 3 kW 2-Pin Surface Mount DO-214 SMDJ5.0CA

Littelfuse SMDJ5.0CA is a 1-element bi-directional Transient Voltage Suppression (TVS) diode designed to protect sensitive electronic components and circuits from voltage spikes induced by lightning, inductive switching, or other transient voltage events. This TVS diode comes in a compact 2-pin DO-214 surface mount package that optimizes board space, suited for modern electronic designs.

The device has a peak pulse power dissipation rating of 3 kW with a 10x1000 μs waveform, making it capable of handling substantial transient power surges. Its minimum breakdown voltage is 6.4 V, with a maximum reverse stand-off voltage of 5 V, and a clamping voltage of 9.2 V, ensuring effective clamp performance to protect downstream components.

The SMDJ5.0CA features fast response time typically under 1 picosecond from 0 V to the minimum breakdown voltage, thus rapidly reacting to suppress voltage spikes before damage can occur. It supports a maximum operating temperature of 150°C and minimum operating temperature down to -65°C, enabling functionality in harsh industrial and commercial environments.

The diode has a glass passivated chip junction and built-in strain relief to enhance performance and reliability. Its plastic package is halogen free and is lead-free matte tin plated, complying with environmental and safety requirements. High temperature soldering capability is guaranteed at 260°C for 40 seconds at terminals, supporting manufacturing robustness.

This TVS diode is ideal for use in power supply lines, telecommunication equipment, industrial electronics, and consumer electronics where transient voltage suppression is critical to ensure device longevity and operational stability.

Single diode, bi-directional configuration provides symmetrical protection. Surface mount DO-214 package offers low-profile mounting and saves board space. 3 kW peak pulse power dissipation protects against high energy surges.

Excellent clamping voltage of 9.2 V ensures sensitive device safety. Wide operating temperature range from -65°C to 150°C supports diverse environments. Fast response time prevents damage from sudden voltage transients. Glass passivated chip junction enhances reliability and long-term stability.

Lead-free, halogen free, and matte tin plated finishes ensure compliance with environmental standards. High temperature soldering validated at 260°C for 40 seconds guarantees manufacturing quality. Suitable for industrial, telecommunications, commercial, and consumer applications.
