The 3.0SMCJ16A-AQ is a high-power Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode manufactured by Diotec. This diode is specifically designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients caused by inductive load switching, lightning strikes, and electrostatic discharge (ESD). Housed in a compact SMC package, it offers excellent surge protection capabilities with a peak pulse power dissipation of 3000W. The 3.0SMCJ16A-AQ features a standoff voltage of 16V, ensuring effective protection for circuits operating at or below this voltage level. Its fast response time allows it to quickly clamp transient voltages, preventing damage to downstream components. Supreme Components International is an authorised distributor of Diotec components, guaranteeing genuine products and reliable performance. This TVS diode is suitable for a wide range of applications, including automotive, industrial, and consumer electronics.
