SMA6F18A-M3/6A Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The Vishay Dale SMA6F18A-M3/6A is a surface-mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode designed for protecting sensitive electronics from voltage transients. It offers a very low profile with a typical height of 0.95 mm, making it ideal for automated placement.

 

This unidirectional TVS diode has a peak pulse power dissipation of 600 W for a 10/1000 μs waveform and 4000 W for an 8/20 μs waveform. It features a breakdown voltage range from 6.4 V to 159 V and a stand-off voltage range from 5.0 V to 130 V. The clamping voltage for this specific part (SMA6F18A) is 33.2 V at a peak pulse current of 102 A (8/20 μs).

 

Designed for applications requiring robust protection, it meets IEC 61000-4-2 level 4 ESD capability. The device operates within a wide temperature range of -55°C to 175°C. The package is a DO-221AC (SlimSMA) with flat leads, suitable for standard PCB mounting.

 

Key features include its excellent clamping capability and suitability for use in consumer, computer, industrial, and telecommunication applications to protect ICs and signal lines against voltage transients.
