1500W bidirectional TVS for general-purpose rail clamping
The 1.5SMC12CA M6G: It clamps transients at 16.7 V max while carrying 94 A peak pulse current, making it a fit for protecting 10.2 V rails in general-purpose DC circuits.
Clamping voltage and breakdown window
The reverse standoff voltage is 10.2 V typical, meaning the device draws negligible leakage below that rail level. Breakdown starts at a minimum of 11.4 V, and clamping is guaranteed at 16.7 V max under the 94 A peak pulse — a tight window that protects downstream silicon without nuisance triggering on normal bus ripple.
DO-214AB package and board-level fit
Housed in a DO-214AB (SMC) surface-mount package, the 1.5SMC12CA M6G reflows on standard lead-free profiles. The single bidirectional channel means one device protects a pair of signal or power lines against both positive and negative transients — no need for two unidirectional diodes back-to-back.
