The SMCJ5.0-170A or SMCG5.0-170A series of 1500 W Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVSs) protects a variety of voltage-sensitive components. It is available in J-bend design (SMCJ) with the DO-214AB package for greater PC board mounting density or in a Gull-wing design (SMCG) in the DO-215AB for visible solder connections. Selections include unidirectional and bidirectional as well as RoHS Compliant with an e3 suffix. They can protect from secondary lightning effects per IEC61000-4-5 and class levels defined herein, or for inductive switching environments and induced RF protection.The SMCJ5.0-170A or SMCG5.0-170A series of 1500 W Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVSs) protects a variety of voltage-sensitive components.

They can protect from secondary lightning effects per IEC61000-4-5 and class levels defined herein, or for inductive switching environments and induced RF protection. Since their response time is virtually instantaneous, they can also be used in protection from ESD and EFT per IEC61000-4-2 and IEC61000-4-4.
