Product details

1500 W peak pulse in a DO-214AB footprint

The 1.5SMC11CAHE3/57T: It clamps transients at 15.6 V max while conducting up to 96.2 A peak pulse current, making it a fit for 12 V automotive rail protection where the reverse standoff voltage of 9.4 V sits below the nominal bus voltage.

AEC-Q101 qualified for under-hood duty

This part carries AEC-Q101 automotive qualification, meaning it's screened for the temperature and reliability demands of engine-bay and chassis electronics. The operating junction temperature range spans -65°C to 150°C, covering cold-crank and hot-soak conditions without derating the 1500 W pulse capability. The DO-214AB (SMC) package is a standard surface-mount footprint for power TVS diodes — the same pad layout used across the 1.5SMC family, so a board already designed for a unidirectional or different voltage variant can accept this bidirectional part with no layout change.
