TVS - Diodes

TVS Diode1500WBidirectionalSMC

The SMCJ12CA is a high-performance 1500W bidirectional TVS diode designed for transient voltage protection in surface-mount applications.

Best for

  • I/O interface protection
  • AC/DC power supply lines
  • Signal transmission lines (RS232/RS485)

Avoid if

  • Applications requiring unidirectional protection or significantly higher power dissipation than 1500W.

Check before use

  • Verify the peak pulse current (IPP) and clamping voltage (VC) match the circuit's surge requirements.
