The SMC DIODES 5KP45A is a high-power, unidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients induced by lightning, inductive load switching, and Electrostatic Discharge (ESD). This 5KP Series diode features a peak pulse power dissipation of 5000W, offering robust protection. With a reverse standoff voltage of 45V, the 5KP45A effectively clamps overvoltage events, preventing damage to downstream components. Supreme Components International is an authorised distributor of SMC DIODES, ensuring you receive genuine, high-quality components. The 5KP45A is ideal for applications requiring reliable overvoltage protection, such as power supplies, telecommunications equipment, and industrial control systems. Its unidirectional configuration simplifies circuit design and provides effective protection against positive voltage transients.
