1500 W bidirectional clamp for 24 V rails
The 1.5SMC24CA-M3/9AT: When the transient exceeds the breakdown voltage (22.8 V min), the device clamps at 33.2 V maximum while shunting up to 45.2 A of peak pulse current. This makes it a direct fit for protecting 24 VDC power buses, I/O lines, and telecom interfaces where a single bidirectional part handles both positive and negative transients without needing two diodes back-to-back.
DO-214AB footprint and temperature range
The supplier device package is listed as DO-214AB (SMCJ), so the PCB land pattern is consistent with other SMC-packaged TVS diodes from Vishay and competitors. The wide range means the clamping performance and leakage current stay within spec across thermal extremes — useful for outdoor or engine-bay applications where the ambient sees -40°C to +125°C.
Active lifecycle — sourcing posture
The Tape & Reel packaging (per the spec) suits automated pick-and-place assembly; store the reels dry — the DO-214AB package is not moisture-sensitive per JEDEC, but standard MSL handling applies.
