The 1SMC48A is a high-performance Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode manufactured by CENTRAL SEMICONDUCTOR. As an authorized distributor, Supreme Components International offers this reliable component for your circuit protection needs. This unidirectional TVS diode is designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients induced by lightning, electrostatic discharge (ESD), and inductive load switching. With a standoff voltage of 48V and a peak pulse power dissipation of 1.5kW, the 1SMC48A effectively clamps transient voltages to safe levels, preventing damage to downstream components. Its DO-214AB (SMC) package allows for efficient heat dissipation and easy surface mounting. The 1SMC48A is suitable for a wide range of applications, including automotive, industrial, and consumer electronics.
