The SMA6J18CA is a high-performance, 600W, 18V bidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode manufactured by Central Semiconductor. Supreme Components International is an authorised distributor of Central Semiconductor components. This surface mount TVS diode, packaged in an SMA, is specifically designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients induced by lightning, inductive load switching, and electrostatic discharge (ESD). Its bidirectional clamping capability ensures effective protection regardless of the polarity of the surge voltage. The SMA6J18CA offers a fast response time and low clamping voltage, making it an excellent choice for safeguarding integrated circuits, transistors, and other vulnerable components in a wide range of applications. This robust TVS diode enhances the reliability and longevity of electronic systems by preventing damage from transient voltage events.
