The P4SMA180A is a surface-mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode manufactured by CENTRAL SEMICONDUCTOR. Supreme Components International is an authorised distributor of CENTRAL SEMICONDUCTOR components, ensuring you receive genuine and reliable parts. This diode is designed to protect sensitive electronic circuits from voltage transients induced by lightning, inductive load switching, and electrostatic discharge (ESD). With a power dissipation rating of 400W, the P4SMA180A effectively clamps transient voltages to safe levels, preventing damage to downstream components. Its SMA package allows for easy integration into printed circuit boards. This TVS diode is ideal for applications requiring robust overvoltage protection, such as industrial equipment, telecommunications systems, and consumer electronics. The P4SMA180A offers a reverse standoff voltage of 180V and fast response time, making it a reliable choice for safeguarding your valuable electronics.
