Product details

600W bidirectional TVS for 54V rails

It clamps transients at 87.1V maximum, protecting downstream circuitry on 48V to 54V rails. A single bidirectional channel means no polarity worries — it suppresses both positive and negative surges on the same line, which simplifies bill-of-materials layout for AC-coupled or bipolar signal lines.

Clamping voltage and pulse current

At the 6.9A peak pulse current (10/1000µs), the clamping voltage holds at 87.1V max. That margin above the 60V minimum breakdown voltage gives a 27V window for the TVS to absorb the surge before the protected circuit sees overstress.

The DO-214AA SMB package is widely used, so tape-and-reel quantities (TR suffix) are the standard procurement format for pick-and-place assembly. No stock-holding claim; we confirm availability and current pricing at quote time.

The DO-214AA (SMB) body is a low-profile, two-terminal package with a visible cathode band on the unidirectional variant — but this bidirectional part has no polarity mark, so orientation is non-critical. The SMB footprint is large enough to hand-rework with a standard hot-air station without lifting adjacent passives. Surface-mount assembly; the solder pad layout per JEDEC standard ensures consistent thermal coupling to the PCB copper for heat sinking during the pulse event.

Frequently asked questions

What is the peak pulse power of SMBJ54CAE3/TR13?

The peak pulse power rating is 600W for a 10/1000µs waveform. That is the maximum energy the device can absorb in a single transient without damage.

Is SMBJ54CAE3/TR13 RoHS compliant?

The evidence does not explicitly state RoHS compliance status. Confirm with the manufacturer or your distributor at quote time.

Can I replace SMBJ54CAE3/TR13 with SMBJ54CA?

The SMBJ54CA is the base part number without the /TR13 tape-and-reel suffix. Electrically they are identical; the difference is packaging format. Confirm the reel quantity and your assembly feeder compatibility before substituting.
