1.5SMC30CA M6G — 1500W bidirectional TVS
With a single bidirectional channel, this part handles symmetrical clamping in a single DO-214AB (SMC) surface-mount package — no need to pair two unidirectional devices back-to-back on the board.
Clamping and current capability
Peak pulse current is rated at 38 A for the 10/1000 µs waveform, giving you the surge capacity for industrial transient events like inductive load switching or lightning-induced spikes on long cable runs. The part does not include power line protection circuitry — it is a straightforward transient suppressor for signal and low-power DC rails.
Package and board fit
Housed in the standard DO-214AB (SMC) package, the 1.5SMC30CA M6G uses the same footprint as other 1.5SMC-series parts — the cathode band on the body marks the anode for unidirectional variants, but on this bidirectional part orientation does not matter for the clamping function. The SMC body is large enough to hand-solder or reflow without special handling, and the package marking includes the voltage code for quick identification on the reel. Supplied in Tape & Reel packaging, it feeds directly into pick-and-place machines for volume assembly.
