SMA4F188A Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The STMicroelectronics SMA4F188A is a TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) Diode designed to protect sensitive electronic circuits from transient voltage surges. It operates within a stand-off voltage range from 5 V to 188 V and offers a peak pulse power dissipation of 400 W (10/1000 µs) and 2.5 kW (8/20 µs).

 

This unidirectional TVS diode features a low leakage current of 0.2 μA at 25 °C and 1 μA at 85 °C, making it suitable for high-end circuits requiring stability and long-term reliability. The planar technology ensures high junction temperature capability, with an operating junction temperature range of -55 °C to 175 °C.

 

The SMA4F188A is packaged in a DO-221AC, SMA Flat Leads package and is designed for surface mount applications. It complies with IEC 61000-4-2 standards for electrostatic discharge protection, exceeding level 4 with 25 kV (contact discharge) and 30 kV (air discharge).

 

Key electrical characteristics include a breakdown voltage of 188 V at 10 mA and a clamping voltage of 328 V at 1.4 A. The lead finishing is matte tin plating.
