SMAJ6.0CA-E3

Vishay Intertech · TVS · SMA(DO-214AC)

SMAJ6.0CA-E3 from Vishay Intertech, in a SMA(DO-214AC). 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 A1 passive Terminal 1 of the bi-directional TVS (CA suffix); electrical characteristics apply in both directions, there is no cathode band marking, and VWM is 6.0 V for this type.
2 A2 passive Terminal 2 of the bi-directional TVS (CA suffix); electrical characteristics apply in both directions, there is no cathode band marking, and VWM is 6.0 V for this type.
