Vishay 1-Element Bi-Directional Transient Voltage Suppressor 600W, Surface Mount DO-214AA (SMBJ16CA-E3/52)

Vishay SMBJ16CA-E3/52 is a high-performance 1-element bi-directional transient voltage suppressor designed for protection against voltage spikes in electronic circuits. This device provides robust transient voltage suppression with a peak pulse power dissipation rating of 600 W. Packaged in a compact DO-214AA surface mount package, it is ideal for automated PCB assembly environments.

The bi-directional diode configuration ensures symmetrical protection for sensitive equipment against transient voltage events, making it suitable for both industrial and automotive applications. It features a minimum breakdown voltage of 17.8 volts and a maximum reverse stand-off voltage of 16 volts, enabling it to clamp voltage surges efficiently at a clamping voltage of 28.8 volts.

Operating reliably over a broad temperature range from -55°C to 150°C, this TVS diode helps safeguard electronics in harsh operating conditions. With its low reverse leakage current of 1 μA and a maximum peak pulse current of 20.8 A, the component delivers excellent transient absorption capability while maintaining minimal standby power loss.

Measuring just 4.57 mm in length, 3.94 mm in width, and 2.24 mm in height, it supports compact electronic designs and tight PCB layouts. Certified to the rigorous AEC-Q101 automotive standard, the SMBJ16CA-E3/52 is optimized for automotive electronics requiring high reliability and durability.

This Transient Voltage Suppressor is suitable for use in industrial electronics, automotive systems, communication devices, power supplies, and other commercial electronic equipment requiring protection from electrostatic discharge (ESD) and transient voltage spikes. The device is surface mount compatible to simplify integration in automated electronics manufacturing.
