SMAJ45A-13-F

Diodes Incorporated · TVS · SMA

SMAJ45A-13-F from Diodes Incorporated, in a SMA. 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 cathode band on the unidirectional SMAJ45A, which has a 45 V reverse standoff voltage, 50.0-55.3 V breakdown at 1.0 mA, and 72.7 V maximum clamping at 5.5 A peak pulse current.
2 A passive Anode terminal opposite the cathode band on the unidirectional SMAJ45A, which is rated for 400 W peak pulse power dissipation.
