Automotive-grade bidirectional TVS in a DO-214AB package
The 1.5SMC39CAHR7G: AEC-Q101 qualification and an operating junction temperature range of -55°C to 150°C make this part suitable for under-hood and chassis-mounted automotive electronics where thermal cycling and surge events are routine.
Clamping voltage and breakdown margin
Minimum breakdown voltage is 37.1 V, with a maximum clamping voltage of 53.9 V at the rated 29 A pulse current. The 33.3 V standoff gives a 3.8 V margin above a typical 24 V automotive rail before the diode starts to conduct leakage current.
No pin-compatible second-source is listed by the manufacturer, but the DO-214AB footprint is shared by many TVS diodes with similar ratings — parametric substitution is possible with a board-level surge review.
