Product details

The SMAJ7.0CE3/TR13: That removes the single-sourcing worry for a protection diode that often sits on a BOM for years without revision.

Bidirectional Zener TVS — 500W surge rating

The peak pulse power rating of 500W (10/1000 µs waveform) defines the energy it can absorb before the junction fails; for a 7V standoff line, that translates to a peak current of 37.8A.

Breakdown occurs at a minimum of 7.78V, and the clamping voltage at peak current is 13.3V. That 5.5V window between standoff and clamp is the voltage headroom the downstream circuitry must survive.

Temperature range and general-purpose use

The device is classified for general-purpose applications, so it fits power-supply input protection, signal-line clamping, and DC bus transient suppression without special qualification overhead.

Frequently asked questions

Is SMAJ7.0CE3/TR13 unidirectional or bidirectional?

It is a single bidirectional channel — it clamps both positive and negative transients symmetrically, as indicated by the 'C' in the part number (bidirectional).

What is the peak pulse power of SMAJ7.0CE3/TR13?

The peak pulse power rating is 500W, tested with a 10/1000 µs waveform. At that power level the clamping voltage reaches 13.3V and the peak current is 37.8A.
