The 3KP12A is a robust 3000W Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) Diode manufactured by SMC DIODES. Supreme Components International is an authorised distributor of SMC DIODES, ensuring you receive genuine, high-quality components. This unidirectional TVS diode is designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients induced by lightning, inductive load switching, and electrostatic discharge (ESD). With a breakdown voltage of 12V, the 3KP12A effectively clamps voltage spikes, preventing damage to downstream circuitry. Its DO-201 package allows for easy mounting and integration into various applications. This TVS diode is ideal for use in power supplies, telecommunications equipment, industrial control systems, and consumer electronics, providing reliable overvoltage protection and enhancing system reliability.
