SMCJ28AHE3_A

Vishay Intertech · TVS · SMC(DO-214AB)

SMCJ28AHE3_A from Vishay Intertech, 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 cathode band on the uni-directional SMCJ28A, which has a 28 V stand-off voltage (VWM) and a 31.1 V to 34.4 V breakdown voltage at 1.0 mA.
2 A passive Anode terminal at the end opposite the cathode band, which is the end with no band, on the uni-directional SMCJ28A, which clamps at a maximum of 45.4 V at 33.0 A peak pulse current.
