The DIPTRONICS 5.0SMCJ40CA is a high-performance, 1500W bidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients induced by lightning, electrostatic discharge (ESD), and inductive load switching. With a standoff voltage of 40V, this TVS diode effectively clamps transient voltages to safe levels, preventing damage to downstream components. Its bidirectional configuration allows it to protect circuits from both positive and negative surges. The 5.0SMCJ40CA is housed in a surface-mount SMC/DO-214AB package, making it easy to integrate into printed circuit boards. Supreme Components International is an authorized distributor of DIPTRONICS components, ensuring you receive genuine and reliable products. Ideal for use in telecommunications, industrial control, and consumer electronics applications.
