This is a single-channel device in the DO-214AA (SMB) surface-mount package, intended for general-purpose overvoltage protection on low-voltage DC rails. The base product number is SM6T6, so other voltage variants in the same family share the same footprint and power rating. The 5.8V reverse standoff voltage means this diode will not conduct at normal 5V or 3.3V rail voltages, but it will start to avalanche at 6.45V minimum. The 600W rating is for an 8/20µs waveform; the same device is also rated for 298A peak pulse current under that condition.","metaTitle":"STMicroelectronics SM6T6V8A TVS Diode, 600W, 5.8V Standoff","metaDescription":"SM6T6V8A from STMicroelectronics: 600W peak pulse power, 5.8V reverse standoff, unidirectional TVS in DO-214AA (SMB) package.
