For a 24V rail (reverse standoff 24V typ), this clamp margin leaves roughly 19V of headroom above the operating voltage — adequate for most 30V-rated downstream silicon. The bidirectional configuration (1 channel) allows the same device to protect against positive and negative transients without polarity concern — useful on AC-coupled or floating signal lines. ## Active production — ordering and package No successor or cross-reference is listed, so this is the current production baseline.","metaTitle":"SMAJ24CE3/TR13 24V Zener TVS Diode - Microchip DO-214AC","metaDescription":"SMAJ24CE3/TR13: 24V reverse standoff, 26.7V breakdown min, 43V clamp at 11.6A, 500W peak pulse.
