DiodesZetex 1-Element Bi-Directional TVS Diode, Surface Mount SMC Package, 1.5 kW, 30 V Reverse Stand-off SMCJ30CA-13-F

DiodesZetex SMCJ30CA-13-F is a high-performance 1-element bi-directional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode designed for surface mount applications in electronic circuits. This component offers robust protection against voltage transients and electrostatic discharge events by clamping voltage spikes to safe levels, thereby preventing damage to sensitive semiconductor devices.

The diode package is a compact Surface Mount Device (SMD) type SMC with two pins, optimized for ease of assembly on printed circuit boards (PCBs). It has a peak pulse power dissipation rating of 1.5 kW, accommodating high energy transient events typical in industrial, automotive, telecommunications, and consumer electronics applications.

The device exhibits a minimum breakdown voltage (Vbr) of 33.3 volts, with a maximum reverse stand-off voltage rated at 30 volts to ensure it remains non-conductive under normal operating conditions. The clamping voltage of 48.4 volts ensures rapid response to overvoltage events, limiting the voltage applied to protected circuits.

Operating reliably across a wide temperature range of -55°C to 150°C, the SMCJ30CA-13-F diodes are suitable for harsh environments requiring durable voltage protection. The low leakage current of 5 microamperes assists in maintaining energy efficiency and circuit stability. Its peak pulse current handling capability is 31 amperes, making it well-suited for transient surge events.

The diode is single-element per chip, consistent with the SMCJ series specification by DiodesZetex, ensuring consistent performance and compliance with industrial standards. Its physical size (7.11 mm length, 6.22 mm width, 2.62 mm height) supports compact system designs where space is at a premium.

Single element configuration ensuring reliable transient voltage suppression. Bi-directional diode type suitable for AC and DC voltage protection. Maximum reverse stand-off voltage of 30 volts for normal operation safety.

Compact surface-mount package facilitates automated PCB assembly. Rated peak pulse power of 1.5 kW supports high transient energy absorption. Wide temperature range operation supports various industrial and automotive applications.

Low reverse leakage current improves circuit efficiency. Manufactured in China, part of DiodesZetex's SMCJ series.

This diode is ideal for electrical and electronic engineers working in semiconductor design, protection circuit development, industrial automation, and telecommunications. It provides a reliable solution for protecting power supply lines, signal lines, and sensitive electronics from transient voltage spikes and electrostatic discharge damage.
