Product details

DC rail protection: matching standoff and clamp to your rail

The 36.7V minimum breakdown voltage ensures the device begins conducting before the protected circuitry sees an overvoltage, while the 53.3V maximum clamping voltage at 28.1A peak pulse current defines the worst-case voltage the load endures during a surge — a critical number when the downstream components have a 60V or 80V absolute maximum rating. Rated for 1500W (1.5kW) peak pulse power per the 10/1000µs waveform, this part handles moderate industrial surge events. The single unidirectional channel means the cathode connects to the protected rail and the anode to ground — not for AC line or bidirectional clamping applications.

Frequently asked questions

Is SMCJ33AE3/TR13 unidirectional or bidirectional?

It is a single-channel unidirectional device. The cathode connects to the protected DC rail and the anode to ground. It is not suitable for AC line or bidirectional clamping applications.
