1500 W peak pulse — the clamping threshold for 256 V rails
The 1.5SMC300A: This is a signal- or low-power-data-line protector — the "No Power Line Protection" flag confirms it is not designed for mains or high-energy AC supply rails. Use it on 256 V DC buses, telecom line cards, or industrial sensor power inputs where the energy in a lightning-induced surge or inductive kickback stays within the 1500 W envelope.
DO-214AB SMC — footprint and temperature range
Cut Tape works for prototype or low-volume builds where a full reel is excess.
Active lifecycle — no end-of-life watch needed
The active status means lead times follow standard semiconductor supply — no premium for end-of-life inventory.
