1500 W peak pulse, 13.6 V standoff — the TVS that protects a 12 V rail
The 1.5SMC16A V7G: Its 13.6 V reverse standoff voltage sits just above a nominal 12 V supply, so it stays transparent during normal operation and only conducts when a transient pushes the rail above 15.2 V (the minimum breakdown voltage). The clamping voltage is 22.5 V at the 70 A peak pulse current — that is the voltage the protected load sees during the surge. For a 12 V telecom line or DC power bus, this clamp level keeps downstream components within their avalanche rating.
DO-214AB (SMC) surface-mount — board-fit and thermal path
Housed in the DO-214AB (SMC) package, the device is a surface-mount footprint that reflows onto a standard PCB pad. The package body is the same as the industry-standard SMC outline, so the land pattern is shared across multiple TVS suppliers — useful if you need to qualify an alternate without a board spin.
Active production — sourcing posture
The base product number is 1.5SMC16, and the V7G suffix denotes the packaging variant (Tape & Reel). If your line uses a different reel size or quantity, confirm the suffix matches your pick-and-place feeder setup.
