The 1SMC20CA is a Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode manufactured by CENTRAL SEMICONDUCTOR. Supreme Components International is an authorised distributor of CENTRAL SEMICONDUCTOR components, ensuring you receive genuine parts. This bidirectional TVS diode is designed to protect sensitive electronic circuits from voltage transients induced by lightning, inductive load switching, and electrostatic discharge (ESD). It features a peak pulse power dissipation of 1.5kW and a reverse standoff voltage of 20V. The 1SMC20CA is housed in a surface-mount SMC package, making it suitable for high-density PCB assemblies. Its fast response time and low clamping voltage provide effective overvoltage protection for a wide range of applications. This robust diode enhances the reliability and longevity of your electronic designs.
