Brightking Elec (TAIWAN) · TVS · DO-15
SA120A from Brightking Elec (TAIWAN), in a DO-15. 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 | K | passive | Cathode: marked by the color band on the unidirectional SA120A, which has a 120V reverse stand-off voltage (VRWM) and a 133-147V breakdown voltage at 1mA. |
| 2 | A | passive | Anode: the axial lead opposite the cathode band on the unidirectional SA120A, which has a maximum clamping voltage of 193V at 2.6A peak pulse current. |
