SMCJ20A-L

Shandong Jingdao Microelectronics · ESD And Surge Protection (TVS/ESD) · SMC

SMCJ20A-L from Shandong Jingdao Microelectronics, in a SMC. 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 of the unidirectional TVS diode (for the bipolar CA types the device is symmetric and either terminal can be connected to the line).
2 Anode passive Anode terminal of the TVS diode, typically connected to ground in unidirectional use.
