SZ1SMA13CAT3G

Littelfuse · TVS · SMA

SZ1SMA13CAT3G from Littelfuse, in a SMA. 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 TVS terminal 1 (labelled Cathode on the part-marking drawing); on the bi-directional SZ1SMA13CAT3G it is symmetric with pin 2: VRWM 13 V, VBR 14.40-15.92 V @ 1 mA, VC 21.5 V @ IPP 18.6 A, 400 W peak (10x1000 µs).
2 Anode passive TVS terminal 2 (labelled Anode on the part-marking drawing); on the bi-directional device it is interchangeable with pin 1, with the same VRWM 13 V, VC 21.5 V @ 18.6 A and IR 2.5 µA max ratings.
