SMT TVS offer tight ±3.5% breakdown voltage tolerance.

Press Release Summary:



Supplied in DO-214AA package, suited for automated placement, and available with unidirectional polarity, SMBJXXD series protects sensitive electronics against voltage transients induced by inductive load switching and lightning. These RoHS-compliant and halogen-free TransZorb® transient voltage suppressors (TVS) offer stand-off voltages from 5–188 V. Operating from -55 to +150°C, SMT products meet MSL Level 1 standard, per STD-020, LF max peak of 260°C.



Original Press Release:



Vishay Intertechnology TransZorb® TVS Offer Tighter ± 3.5 % Breakdown Voltage Tolerance for Precise Breakdown Voltage, High Peak Surge Current, and Low Clamping Voltage



MALVERN, Pa. — Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) today introduced a new series of surface-mount TransZorb® transient voltage suppressors (TVS) in the low-profile DO-214AA package. Vishay General Semiconductor SMBJXXD series TVS achieve ± 3.5 % breakdown voltage tolerance and very low reverse leakage current. Compared to previous-generation devices, the new series offers excellent clamping features with higher peak pulse surge current and lower clamping voltage for better input protection of IC devices.



SMBJXXD series TVS are designed to protect sensitive electronics against voltage transients induced by inductive load switching and lightning. The devices are ideal for DC adapter power line protection, power supply snubber circuits, and general voltage surge protection in consumer, computer, industrial, and telecommunication equipment.



Available with unidirectional polarity, the SMBJXXD series consists of 47 TVS with stand-off voltages from 5 V to 188 V. The devices offer a temperature range from -55 °C to +150 °C and meet the MSL Level 1 standard, per -STD-020, LF maximum peak of 260 °C. Ideal for automated placement, the TVS are RoHS-compliant and halogen-free.



Samples and production quantities of the new SMBJXXD series are available now, with lead times of eight weeks for large orders. Pricing for U.S. delivery is $0.06 per piece.
