Bidirectional 500W surge clamp for 9V rails
It clamps a 9V nominal rail at 15.4V max when the surge current hits 32.6A. The breakdown voltage range starts at 10V min, so the part begins conducting before the rail exceeds the upstream regulator's or load's absolute maximum — a common requirement for 9V DC power inputs in industrial and telecom equipment.
The - suffix indicates the standard lead-free / RoHS-compliant finish, which matches the majority of modern assembly flows.
Junction temperature range and mounting
Operating junction temperature spans -65°C to 150°C, covering automotive under-hood, outdoor base stations, and industrial motor-drive cabinets where ambient temperatures can exceed 85°C. The wide range means the 500W peak pulse rating is derated only at the high end, not cut by half at 125°C. Surface-mount DO-214AC (SMA) package — the same footprint as many other 500W TVS diodes, making it a drop-in candidate for existing layouts. The bidirectional single-channel construction protects both polarities of an AC or floating DC line without needing two unidirectional parts back-to-back.
