SM6T36A-E3 from Vishay Intertech, 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 | K | passive | Cathode terminal, marked by the cathode band on unidirectional types; SM6T36A is unidirectional with VBR 34.2 V to 37.8 V, VRM 30.8 V and VC 49.9 V at 12.0 A (10/1000 μs). |
| 2 | A | passive | Anode terminal; the datasheet states that the band denotes the cathode end for unidirectional types and that bidirectional types (CA suffix) have no marking and apply in both directions. |
