What the 170V standoff and clamping rating mean for your rail
The 1.5SMCJ170A_R1_00001: The 1.5SMCJ170A clamps transients on the rail it guards — when the overvoltage exceeds the 189 V minimum breakdown, the TVS turns hard on and clamps the spike to 275 V maximum at a 5.5 A peak pulse (10/1000 µs waveform). The 170 V reverse standoff is the working rail rating: it sits off-state on a 24 V or 48 V supply and only conducts when a surge fires.
