Peak pulse power is rated 600W for a 10/1000µs waveform, corresponding to a peak pulse current of 10.3A and a maximum clamping voltage of 58.1V. That 58.1V ceiling is the voltage the protected circuit must survive during the surge. This is a single-channel bidirectional device. On a 36V rail, a positive or negative transient is clamped symmetrically, which eliminates the need for two back-to-back unidirectional parts. That spans military cold-soak and underhood hot conditions, but the part carries no explicit AEC-Q100 grade — verify qualification if the target is automotive PPAP submission. ## Active production — tape-and-reel delivery Microchip Technology lists the SMBJ36CAE3/TR13 as Active. No LTB, no forced redesign window. The base product number is SMBJ36; the designator denotes the high-reliability screening flow. For volume BOM positions, this part is sourced and quoted per RFQ — no stock-holding claim, but the active status means lead times are standard for the Microchip TVS line.","metaTitle":"SMBJ36CAE3/TR13 TVS Diode – 36V Standoff, 600W","metaDescription":"SMBJ36CAE3/TR13 bidirectional Zener TVS diode; 36V reverse standoff, 58.1V clamp, 600W peak pulse power.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Circuit Protection"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"Microchip Technology","Type":"Zener","Series":"-","Package":"Tape & Reel (TR)","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":"SMBJ36","Operating Temperature":"-65°C~150°C(TJ)","Power Line Protection":"No","Bidirectional Channels":"1","Capacitance @ Frequency":"-","Supplier Device Package":"SMBJ (DO-214AA)","Voltage - Breakdown (Min)":"40V","Voltage - Clamping (Max) @ Ipp":"58.1V","Voltage - Reverse Standoff (Typ)":"36V","Current - Peak Pulse (10/1000µs)":"10.3A"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$0.3000","stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icboms.com/f566c62ad8bf6be9ecf452f6999d0b7a.pdf","sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Is SMBJ36CAE3/TR13 bidirectional?","answer":"Yes, it is a single-channel bidirectional TVS.
