3.0SMC28A

Littelfuse · TVS · DO-214AB(SMCJ)

3.0SMC28A from Littelfuse, in a DO-214AB(SMCJ). 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 marked by the color band (positive end) on the unidirectional 3.0SMC28A, with 28.0V reverse standoff voltage and 31.10V to 34.40V breakdown at 1mA.
2 Anode passive Anode terminal of the unidirectional 3.0SMC28A, which has a maximum clamping voltage of 59V at 470A peak pulse current (8/20µs) and a maximum forward voltage of 3.5V at 100A.
