SMCJ170CA Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The Bourns SMCJ170CA is a bidirectional transient voltage suppression (TVS) diode designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients. It features a reverse standoff voltage of 170V and a maximum clamping voltage of 275V at a peak pulse current of 5.5A (10/1000µs waveform). With a peak pulse power dissipation of 1500W, it is suitable for general purpose applications requiring robust overvoltage protection.

 

This TVS diode is housed in a DO-214AB (SMC) surface mount package, enabling compact PCB designs. It operates over a wide temperature range of -55°C to 150°C, making it suitable for demanding environments. The bidirectional configuration allows protection for both positive and negative transients without polarity concerns.

 

Typical applications include power supply protection, I/O interface protection, and transient suppression in industrial, telecom, and consumer electronics. The SMCJ170CA is RoHS compliant and halogen free, meeting modern environmental standards.
