A 12 V supply rail sees no leakage at steady state; the TVS only clamps when the transient pushes the rail above the breakdown threshold. Single unidirectional channel — one TVS protects one rail. For a bipolar or AC line, two devices back-to-back or a bidirectional variant would be needed. ## DO-214AB SMC — the board-fit footprint for 1.5 kW dissipation Housed in the DO-214AB (SMC) surface-mount package, the SMCJ11A-13's copper tab on the cathode side carries the bulk of the thermal energy to the PCB copper plane. Cut Tape works for prototype or low-volume builds where the full reel commitment is not justified. ## Active production — no last-time-buy pressure No stock-holding claim — each order is quoted against the BOM quantity.","metaTitle":"SMCJ11A-13 Diodes Inc TVS, 1500W, 11V Standoff, DO-214AB","metaDescription":"SMCJ11A-13 Diodes Incorporated Zener TVS, 1500W peak pulse power, 11V reverse standoff, 82.4A Ipp, DO-214AB SMC.

Zener TVS devices clamp overvoltages by entering avalanche breakdown at a precise voltage — here 12.2 V minimum — and shunting the surge current to ground. The Zener construction gives a sharper breakdown knee than a standard diode, so the clamping voltage stays tighter across the pulse."},{"question":"What package does the SMCJ11A-13 come in and how does it affect board layout?","answer":"The DO-214AB (SMC) surface-mount package.
