# SMCJ20CAQ

**Yangzhou Yangjie Elec Tech** · ESD And Surge Protection (TVS/ESD) · DO-214AB(SMC)

SMCJ20CAQ from Yangzhou Yangjie Elec Tech, in a DO-214AB(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 | A1 | passive | Bi-directional TVS terminal (SMCJ20CAQ: VRWM 20.0 V, VBR 22.20-24.50 V at 1 mA, max clamping 32.4 V at 46.3 A IPP); no polarity marking, so it is interchangeable with the other terminal. |
| 2 | A2 | passive | Bi-directional TVS terminal (SMCJ20CAQ: 1500 W peak pulse power at 10/1000 µs); no polarity marking, so it is interchangeable with the other terminal. |
