DESCRIPTION
APPEARANCE
The SMCJ5.0-170A or SMCG5.0-170A series of 1500 W Transient Voltage
Suppressors (TVSs) protects a variety of voltage-sensitive components from
destruction or degradation. It is available in J-bend design (SMCJ) with the
DO-214AB package for greater PC board mounting density or in a Gull-wing
design (SMCG) in the DO-215AB for visible solder connections. Selections
include unidirectional and bidirectional. They can protect from secondary
lightning effects per IEC61000-4-5 and class levels defined herein, or for
inductive switching environments and induced RF protection. Since their
from ESD and EFT per IEC61000-4-2 and IEC61000-4-4.
