Reverse standoff voltage is 30V, so it sits across a 24V or 28V supply bus and stays off until a surge pushes the line above the 33.3V minimum breakdown threshold. Clamping voltage at peak current is 48.4V max, which keeps downstream components within a safe voltage window. ## Peak pulse power and clamping performance At 1500W peak pulse power, the SMCJ30AE3/TR13 sinks 31A of peak pulse current (Ipp) at the clamping voltage of 48.4V. No power line protection rating means this diode is not intended for continuous AC mains clamping — it is a transient suppressor, not a crowbar device. ## Package, mounting, and lifecycle reality The supplier device package designation is SMCJ, matching the standard SMC footprint.
