1KSMB18A

Littelfuse · TVS · DO-214AA(SMBJ)

1KSMB18A from Littelfuse, in a DO-214AA(SMBJ). Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 Cathode passive Cathode terminal of the unidirectional TVS marked by the color band; connects to the protected line and is the positive side of the 15.3V stand-off, 17.10-18.90V breakdown at 1mA, 25.5V clamp at 39.2A device.
2 Anode passive Anode terminal of the unidirectional TVS, normally connected to ground or return; forward voltage is max 3.5V at 50A.
