Transient protection for 8V rails
The SMCJ8.0AE3/TR13 is a unidirectional Zener TVS diode from Microchip, rated for 1500W peak pulse power (10/1000µs waveform). It protects a nominal 8V rail, clamping transients at 13.6V maximum, and can handle a peak pulse current of 110.3A. This makes it a solid choice for clamping surges on 5V or 8V supply lines in industrial and general-purpose equipment.
Clamping voltage and temperature range
The reverse standoff voltage is 8V, with a minimum breakdown of 8.89V. The clamping voltage at peak pulse current is 13.6V — a 5.6V window above the standoff, which is typical for a Zener-based TVS.
Active production, tape-and-reel delivery
Microchip lists the SMCJ8.0AE3/TR13 as Active. Sourced per RFQ — confirm current lead time and pricing at quote.
