1.5kW bidirectional TVS for 185V rail protection
The 1.5SMC220CA-E3/9AT: Its 1500W peak pulse power rating (10/1000µs waveform) means it absorbs surge energy without failing short, protecting downstream silicon from overvoltage events like inductive kickback or lightning-induced spikes.
The supplier device package is listed as DO-214AB (SMCJ), so the pad layout matches other SMCJ-suffix parts — no board respin needed when swapping between Vishay SMC-series bidirectional TVSs in the same power class.
Sourced to order against an RFQ through independent and franchised distribution.
