TPSMC68A

Littelfuse · TVS · DO-214AB(SMCJ)

TPSMC68A from Littelfuse, in a DO-214AB(SMCJ). 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 unidirectional TVS, marked by the cathode band, and it goes to the positive side of the protected line (VR 58.10V, VBR 64.60V min at 1mA, VC 92.0V at 16.5A Ipp).
2 Anode passive Anode terminal of the unidirectional TVS, and it goes to the return or ground side (max forward voltage 3.5V at 100A).
