Product Specification
The SMCJ6.5CA is a surface-mount bidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS diode) designed to protect sensitive electronic circuits from voltage transients and surges. Compliant with the SMC (Surface Mount Chip) package standard, it offers compact size, high surge handling capability, and reliable protection performance, making it widely used in various electronic systems.
The core function of the SMCJ6.5CA is to clamp transient overvoltages to a safe level. When a voltage surge (e.g., electrostatic discharge, inductive load switching, or lightning-induced transients) occurs in the circuit, the TVS diode rapidly transitions from a high-impedance off-state to a low-impedance on-state in nanoseconds. This allows the surge current to be shunted to ground, preventing the overvoltage from reaching and damaging downstream sensitive components (such as microcontrollers, sensors, or communication chips).
As a bidirectional TVS diode, the SMCJ6.5CA provides equal protection for both positive and negative polarity transients. This is critical for circuits where voltage polarity may reverse or where transients can occur in either direction (e.g., signal lines, AC circuits, or bidirectional data buses).
It is capable of withstanding high peak surge currents (typically tens of amperes, specific values depend on the pulse waveform and duration, e.g., 40A for 8/20µs pulses). This enables it to handle severe transient events without permanent damage, ensuring continuous circuit protection.
In the normal off-state, the SMCJ6.5CA exhibits very low leakage current. This minimizes power consumption in the circuit during steady-state operation, which is particularly important for battery-powered devices or low-power electronic systems.
With a response time in the nanosecond range, the diode can react almost instantaneously to voltage transients. This rapid response ensures that the overvoltage is clamped before it can cause damage to sensitive components, which is essential for protecting high-speed electronic circuits.
