The 13V reverse standoff voltage means the protected line can operate at up to 13V DC without the diode conducting; when a transient exceeds the 14.4V minimum breakdown voltage, the TVS clamps the surge to a maximum of 21.5V while shunting up to 29A of peak pulse current. This part is intended for general-purpose overvoltage protection on power supply rails, data lines, and I/O ports in industrial, telecom, and consumer equipment.","metaTitle":"STMicroelectronics SMBJ13CA-TR TVS Diode, 600W Bidirectional","metaDescription":"STMicroelectronics SMBJ13CA-TR is a 600W bidirectional Zener TVS diode in DO-214AA (SMB) package. 13V reverse standoff, 21.5V clamping, 29A peak pulse current.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Circuit Protection"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"STMicroelectronics","Type":"Zener","Series":"SMBJ, TRANSIL™","Package":"Tape & Reel (TR); Cut Tape (CT)","Applications":"General Purpose","Mounting Type":"Surface Mount","Package / Case":"DO-214AA, SMB","Product Status":"Active","lifecycle_stage":"eol_hot","Power - Peak Pulse":"600W","Base Product Number":"SMBJ13","Operating Temperature":"-55°C~150°C(TJ)","Power Line Protection":"No","Bidirectional Channels":"1","Capacitance @ Frequency":"-","Supplier Device Package":"SMB (DO-214AA)","Voltage - Breakdown (Min)":"14.4V","Voltage - Clamping (Max) @ Ipp":"21.5V","Voltage - Reverse Standoff (Typ)":"13V","Current - Peak Pulse (10/1000µs)":"29A"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$0.4900","priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icboms.com/28916e022258112f057e7568b7920d5a.pdf","sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icboms.com/api/mcp/products/SMBJ13CA-TR/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Is SMBJ13CA-TR bidirectional?","answer":"Yes, the SMBJ13CA-TR is a bidirectional Zener TVS diode. It clamps transients of both polarities with a single device, so it is suited for AC-coupled lines or differential pairs where the surge can swing positive or negative."},{"question":"What is the peak pulse power rating of SMBJ13CA-TR?","answer":"The SMBJ13CA-TR is rated for 600W peak pulse power under a 10/1000µs waveform. This is the standard TVS surge rating that defines how much transient energy the device can absorb without failing."},{"question":"What is the equivalent or replacement for SMBJ13CA-TR?","answer":"For dual-sourcing, any bidirectional 600W TVS in DO-214AA with a 13V standoff and 21.5V clamping voltage is a functional equivalent — verify the breakdown voltage tolerance and package footprint match your layout."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://icboms.com/stmicroelectronics/SMBJ13CA-TR","citationPolicyUrl":"https://icboms.com/llms.txt","source":"ICBOMS","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"ICBOMS\" and link https://icboms.com/stmicroelectronics/SMBJ13CA-TR when reusing this data.
