Product details

43V bidirectional Zener TVS in DO-214AC

The DO-214AC (SMA) surface-mount package is a workhorse footprint — easy to hand-rework with hot air, and the large cathode tab (shared with the anode in a bidirectional die) sinks pulse heat into the board copper.

Clamping voltage and pulse current

Breakdown occurs at 47.8V min, and the clamping voltage at the peak pulse current of 6.5A is 76.7V max. For a 24V rail, this TVS is overkill — the 43V standoff is well above the rail, so the part never conducts during normal operation. It would only clamp on a transient that exceeds 47.8V, which is plausible on a 24V bus with inductive kickback or surge events.
