600W Zener TVS for 18.8V rails
The P6SMB22AT3 is a single-direction Zener TVS diode from onsemi's P6SMB series, rated for 600W peak pulse power at 10/1000µs waveform. Its 18.8V reverse standoff voltage and 20.9V minimum breakdown voltage make it a fit for clamping transients on 15V to 18V DC rails in automotive electronics.
Clamping and capacitance at 1 MHz
Maximum clamping voltage is 30.6V at the rated 20A peak pulse current. The 835pF typical capacitance at 1 MHz is high enough to slow fast edges; for high-speed data lines, a lower-capacitance TVS would be preferred.
Obsolete — sourcing for legacy BOMs
onsemi lists the P6SMB22AT3 as Obsolete.
