**Brightking Elec (TAIWAN)** · TVS · SMC(DO-214AB)

SMCJ250A from Brightking Elec (TAIWAN), in a SMC(DO-214AB). 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 terminal, marked by the color band on the unidirectional SMCJ250A; 250V reverse stand-off voltage (VRWM), 279-309V breakdown at 1mA, 405V max clamping at 3.7A peak pulse current. |
| 2 | A | passive | Anode terminal of the unidirectional SMCJ250A, opposite the color-banded cathode end; 1500W minimum peak pulse power at 10/1000μs. |
