Taiwan Semiconductor 1-Element Uni-Directional TVS Diode, 1.5 kW, 2-Pin DO-214 SMCJ60A

Taiwan Semiconductor SMCJ60A is a new 1-Element Uni-Directional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode designed for high reliability transient voltage protection in electronic circuits. It features a peak pulse power dissipation of 1.5 kW allowing efficient suppression of voltage spikes and surges that can damage sensitive components.

The diode uses a 2-pin DO-214 surface mount package with compact dimensions of 7.15 mm length, 6.25 mm width, and 2.75 mm height, ideal for PCB mounting in tight spaces. Its glass-passivated junction provides fast response times to transient voltage events, ensuring excellent clamping capability with minimal incremental surge resistance.

This TVS diode has a minimum breakdown voltage of 66.7 V and a maximum reverse stand-off voltage of 60 V, making it suitable for suppressing transients in circuits that operate at these voltage levels. Its clamping voltage is 96.8 V which limits the voltage spike to safe levels.

Taiwan Semiconductor’s SMCJ60A offers a maximum peak pulse current of 15.5 A and low reverse leakage current of 5 μA for efficient circuit protection with minimal leakage losses. It operates reliably between -55°C and 150°C, supporting industrial and automotive applications requiring robust environmental tolerance. Though it does not conform to automotive standards, it meets FBI standards and has recognized UL certifications for flammability rating UL94V-0.

This TVS diode is widely used in industrial electronics, power management devices, automotive systems, telecommunications, and other applications where transient voltage protection is critical. It offers a cost-effective solution for prolonging device life and ensuring system reliability.
