The SMC Diodes 3KP160CA is a high-power, bidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients induced by lightning, inductive load switching, and electrostatic discharge (ESD). With a peak pulse power dissipation of 3000W, this TVS diode effectively clamps overvoltage events, preventing damage to downstream components. Its 160V breakdown voltage (Vbr) ensures reliable protection in a wide range of applications. The 3KP160CA is housed in a robust DO-201 package for easy mounting and efficient heat dissipation. Supreme Components International is an authorized distributor of SMC Diodes, ensuring you receive genuine, high-quality components. This TVS diode is suitable for industrial, automotive, and telecommunications applications where robust overvoltage protection is critical.
