TVS devices achieve ±3.5% breakdown voltage tolerance

Vishay Intertechnology has introduced a series of SMT TransZorb Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS). Vishay General Semiconductor SMBJXXD series TVS achieve ±3.5% breakdown voltage tolerance and very low reverse leakage current. Compared to previous devices, the series offers excellent clamping features with higher peak pulse surge current and lower clamping voltage for better input protection of ICs.

Offered in the low-profile DO-214AA package, SMBJXXD series TVS are designed to protect sensitive electronics against voltage transients induced by inductive load switching and lightning. The devices are suitable for DC adapter power line protection, power supply snubber circuits, and general voltage surge protection in consumer, computer, industrial, and telecomms equipment.

Available with unidirectional polarity, the SMBJXXD series consists of 47 TVS with stand-off voltages from 5 to 188V. The devices offer a temperature range from -55 to +150°C and meet the MSL Level 1 standard, per -STD-020, LF maximum peak of 260°C.

Suitable for automated placement, the TVS are RoHS-compliant and halogen-free. Samples and production quantities of the SMBJXXD series are available now, with lead times of eight weeks for large orders.
