The SMCJ170CA is a high-performance, bidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode manufactured by SMC Diodes. As an authorized distributor, Supreme Components International offers this reliable component designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients induced by lightning, inductive load switching, and electrostatic discharge (ESD). This surface mount device boasts a peak pulse power dissipation of 1500W. With a reverse standoff voltage of 170V, the SMCJ170CA effectively clamps transient voltages, preventing damage to downstream circuitry. Its SMC package ensures efficient thermal management and facilitates easy assembly onto printed circuit boards. This TVS diode is suitable for a wide range of applications, including telecommunications, industrial control, and consumer electronics.
