CAD (KiCad official)

  • Symbol: SMCJ12A-TR
  • Footprint: Diode_SMD:D_SMC
  • 3D model: SMC (KiCad packages3D, STEP)
  • 3D model files: smcj12a-tr-etched.step / smcj12a-tr-etched.glb carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable Adom.LaserEtch group (Fusion-ready); smcj12a-tr.step / smcj12a-tr.glb are the bare package body.
