Product details

1500W transient suppressor for 12V rails

The 1.5SMC12A-M3/57T: With a 10.2V reverse standoff voltage and a 16.7V clamping maximum at 89.8A peak pulse current, it protects 12V DC power rails from transients like load dump or inductive kickback.

Package and temperature range

Housed in a DO-214AB (SMC) surface-mount package, this diode suits automated assembly and reflow soldering.
