SMPC33A-M3

Vishay Intertech · ESD And Surge Protection (TVS/ESD) · TO-277A

SMPC33A-M3 from Vishay Intertech, in a TO-277A. 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 1 passive Cathode-side terminal 1 of the SMPC33A transient voltage suppressor, per the pinout drawing for the SMPCxxA variant; the datasheet states the cathode band marks the cathode end and that electrical characteristics apply only when two identical-polarity terminals are connected.
2 Anode Cathode 2 passive Terminal 2 is labelled 'Anode Cathode 2' in the pinout drawing, so its polarity is not stated unambiguously in the text and it should be confirmed against the drawing or manufacturer before layout.
3 EP passive Exposed pad (from the footprint; not named in the datasheet pin table).
