Transient Voltage Suppressors

DEVICES FOR BI-DIRECTION APPLICATIONS

For bi-directional devices use CA suffix (e.g. SMA5J40CA).

Electrical characteristics apply in both directions.

FEATURES

• Low profile package

• Ideal for automated placement

• Glass passivated chip junction

• Available in uni-directional and bi-directional

• Excellent clamping capability

• Very fast response time

• Low incremental surge resistance

• Meets MSL level 1, per J-STD-020, LF maximum peak of

260 °C

• AEC-Q101 qualified

• Material categorization: For definitions of compliance

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS

Use in sensitive electronics protection against voltage

transients induced by inductive load switching and lighting

on ICs, MOSFET, signal lines of sensor units for consumer,

computer, industrial, automotive, and telecommunication.
