SMAJ5.0CA Bidirectional TVS Diode 5V 43.5A Surge Protection Diode SMA DO-214AC (SMAJ5.0CA-E3/61)
The SMAJ5.0CA is a bidirectional Transient Voltage Suppression (TVS) diode designed to protect sensitive electronic circuits from voltage transients caused by Electrostatic Discharge (ESD), lightning, inductive load switching, and other surge events. With a 5V reverse stand-off voltage, 7.07V maximum breakdown voltage, 9.2V maximum clamping voltage, and 43.5A peak pulse current, it provides fast and reliable overvoltage protection for low-voltage power lines, communication interfaces, industrial equipment, automotive electronics, and embedded systems.
Manufactured by Vishay and housed in a compact SMA (DO-214AC) surface-mount package, the SMAJ5.0CA-E3/61 is suitable for high-density PCB designs requiring dependable surge and ESD protection.
