Product details

13V rail clamp in a DO-214AA footprint

It is a single bidirectional channel, meaning it protects both polarities from a single device — useful for AC signal lines or bipolar DC buses where polarity is not fixed. The breakdown voltage starts at 14.4 V min, so the rail must stay below that threshold under normal operation.

Package and polarity for layout

Microchip lists the SMBJ13CE3/TR13 as Active. For BOM planning, the active status means no immediate risk of obsolescence. The part is available for quote against your quantity — confirm lead time and pricing at time of order through your preferred distributor.

Frequently asked questions

Is SMBJ13CE3/TR13 unidirectional or bidirectional?

It is a single bidirectional channel — it clamps both positive and negative transients with one device, so there is no cathode or anode orientation on the PCB.

What is the peak pulse power rating of SMBJ13CE3/TR13?

Rated for 600W peak pulse power per the 10/1000 µs waveform, with a peak pulse current of 25.2 A and a maximum clamping voltage of 23.8 V at that current.
