New TVS designed to protect sensitive electronics against voltage transients

Available now from TTI Europe, Vishay Intertechnology has introduced a new series of surface-mount TransZorb TVS in the low-profile DO-214AA package. The SMBJXXD series TVS achieve ±3.5% breakdown voltage tolerance and very low reverse leakage current. Compared to previous-generation devices, the new series offers excellent clamping features with higher peak pulse surge current and lower clamping voltage for better input protection of IC devices. The series consists of 47 TVS with stand-off voltages from 5V to 188V. The series, is designed to protect sensitive electronics against voltage transients induced by inductive load switching and lightning.
