Product details

Package and footprint fit

The 1.5SMC56CAH: The SMC footprint is larger than the SMA/SMB siblings, providing a wider copper pad area under the terminals for thermal dissipation during the pulse event — critical for maintaining the 1500W rating without exceeding the junction temperature limit.
