SMCJ16A is a unidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode designed for surge and ESD protection in electronic circuits. It features a working voltage of 16 V, breakdown voltage range of 17.8 V to 19.7 V, and a maximum clamping voltage of 26.4 V. The device offers a power dissipation of 1500 watts and is housed in a surface mount DO-214AB (SMC) package. With typical fast response times of less than 1.0 picosecond, this TVS diode provides effective protection against IEC 61000-4-2 ESD, IEC 61000-4-4 EFT, and IEC 61000-4-5 surge events, making it suitable for portable communications, computing, and video equipment applications.
