Clamp voltage and surge rating for 25.6V rails
The 1.5SMC30AHM3_A/H: Its 25.6V reverse standoff voltage protects 24V nominal rails, clamping transients at 41.4V maximum while conducting 36.2A peak pulse current. The 28.5V minimum breakdown voltage ensures the device stays out of conduction during normal 24V system ripple, while the 41.4V clamp keeps the protected node below typical downstream component abs-max ratings for 40V-tolerant parts.
Automotive qualification and temperature range
AEC-Q101 qualification means this part has passed automotive-grade reliability stress tests including high-temperature reverse bias, temperature cycling, and ESD immunity per the automotive electronics council standard. Target applications include automotive electronic control units, telecom line cards, and general-purpose transient suppression where 1500W peak pulse capability is needed in a surface-mount DO-214AB footprint.
DO-214AB package and reflow considerations
The tape-and-reel packaging (TR) suits high-volume pick-and-place assembly. No power line protection feature is built in — this is a unidirectional TVS for signal or low-side power rail clamping, not for AC mains. The single-channel unidirectional design protects one rail per device.
