Transient voltage suppressor for general-purpose protection
The 1.5SMC100CA-E3/9AT: The Vishay 1.5SMC100CA-/9AT is a bidirectional Zener-type TVS diode from the 1.5SMC series, branded TransZorb®.
Clamping voltage and breakdown define the protection window
This 137V ceiling is what the downstream circuitry must survive during a surge event.
Surface mount package and temperature range
The wide temperature span suits it for outdoor or industrial enclosures where ambient extremes are expected.
