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

SMCJ43A-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 unipolar SMCJ43A-L TVS diode; the datasheet gives the 43 V reverse stand-off and clamping ratings between this pin and the anode. |
| 2 | Anode | passive | Anode terminal of the unipolar SMCJ43A-L TVS diode; the datasheet gives the 43 V reverse stand-off and clamping ratings between this pin and the cathode. |

## CAD (KiCad official)

- Symbol: `SMCJ43A-L`
- Footprint: `Diode_SMD:D_SMC`
- 3D model: SMC (KiCad packages3D, STEP)
- 3D model files: `smcj43a-l-etched.step` / `smcj43a-l-etched.glb` carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable `Adom.LaserEtch` group (Fusion-ready); `smcj43a-l.step` / `smcj43a-l.glb` are the bare package body.
