3SMC12A Datasheet
Product Description
The 3SMC12A is a high-performance, surface-mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode manufactured by Central Semiconductor. Supreme Components International is an authorised distributor of Central Semiconductor components. This unidirectional TVS diode is specifically designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients induced by lightning, electrostatic discharge (ESD), and inductive load switching. With a standoff voltage of 12V and a peak pulse power dissipation of 3000W, the 3SMC12A provides robust protection against overvoltage conditions. Its surface-mount SMC package allows for easy integration into printed circuit boards. This TVS diode is ideal for applications requiring reliable transient voltage protection, such as automotive electronics, industrial control systems, and telecommunications equipment. The 3SMC12A offers a fast response time and low clamping voltage, ensuring effective protection for sensitive components.
