Product details

Selecting the right TVS for a 12V rail

Its 14V reverse standoff voltage means it stays off below 14V, so it won't leak on a healthy 12V bus. The minimum breakdown voltage is 15.6V, giving a guard band before the diode starts conducting.

Bidirectional clamping for AC or bipolar signals

The suffix in the order code indicates a lead-free, RoHS-compliant finish — no change in electrical performance versus the standard SMAJ14CA, but required for newer environmental compliance directives.

Frequently asked questions

Is SMAJ14CAE3/TR13 bidirectional or unidirectional?

It is a single-channel bidirectional device, clamping both positive and negative transients symmetrically.

What is the suffix in SMAJ14CAE3/TR13?

The suffix indicates a lead-free, RoHS-compliant termination finish. It does not affect electrical specifications compared to the standard SMAJ14CA.
