The 15KPA280A is a high-power unidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode manufactured by SMC Diodes. Part of the 15KPA series, this diode is designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients induced by lightning, inductive load switching, and electrostatic discharge (ESD). It features a peak pulse power dissipation of 15000W at a reverse standoff voltage of 280V. The 15KPA280A offers excellent clamping capability, high surge capability, and fast response time. Supreme Components International is an authorised distributor of SMC Diodes, ensuring you receive genuine and reliable components. This TVS diode is ideal for use in power supplies, telecommunication equipment, industrial control systems, and other applications requiring robust overvoltage protection. Its unidirectional configuration simplifies circuit design and provides effective protection against positive voltage surges.
