Diodes Incorporated · TVS · SMA

SMAJ8.5AQ-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 K passive Cathode, identified by the cathode band on the uni-directional SMAJ8.5AQ, which has 8.5V reverse standoff voltage, 9.44V to 10.4V breakdown at 1.0mA and 14.4V maximum clamping at 27.7A.
2 A passive Anode, the terminal opposite the cathode band, which is held at or below cathode potential in normal operation, with 10µA maximum reverse leakage at VRWM of 8.5V.
