Product details

What rail voltage does this TVS protect?

It clamps transients to a maximum of 146V at a peak pulse current of 3.4A (10/1000µs waveform). The 500W peak pulse power rating gives a reasonable energy-handling margin for 90V rails in industrial or telecom equipment.

Package and mounting for reflow

The SMA footprint is standard for 500W TVS diodes; reflow profile follows typical lead-free solder curves for the package body.

Microchip lists the SMAJ90CAE3/TR13 as Active.

Frequently asked questions

Is SMAJ90CAE3/TR13 a bidirectional TVS diode?

Yes, it is a single bidirectional channel. The bidirectional construction means it clamps both positive and negative transients symmetrically, which is typical for AC signal lines or DC rails where reverse polarity protection is needed.
