5.0SMLJ24A-TP

TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) diodes are electronic components designed to protect sensitive components from over-voltages. The 5.0SMLJ24A-TP is an unidirectional transient suppressor diode with standoff voltage of 5.0volts. This diode offers protection against transients found in applications such as AC and DC power switches, high current lines, and sensitive microprocessor protection.

The 5.0SMLJ24A-TP is suitable for use in TVs, computer monitors, power supplies, and automotive applications requiring efficient protection against large transients. It is also compatible with standard industry wide lead spacing (0.25") and meets JEDEC industry-standard EIA-481 dimensions.

The 5.0SMLJ24A-TP is an ideal protection device for a broad range of power and signal lines applications where high overvoltage protection is required. Adding this device in the circuit can provide protection against overvoltages due to electrostatic discharge (ESD), inductive switching, or lightning. It supports high surge current ratings up to 24A (8/20µs). This device has an operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C.

The 5.0SMLJ24A-TP diode has a bidirectional symmetrical voltage clamping action. When there is a voltage transient, the device will clamp the voltage to the specified clamp voltage. The device will reach its peak current rating at a much shorter time than an equivalent protection device with no voltage clamping. This characteristic makes it ideal for use in high-noise environments.

The 5.0SMLJ24A-TP is an efficient protection device against large transient over-voltage spikes. Its fast clamping action prevents destructive over-voltage conditions from damaging sensitive components and equipment. This device is suitable for a wide range of applications, including power supplies, ESD, inductive switching, and lightning protections. The device is specifically designed to support high surge current ratings up to 24A, making it suitable for all types of power and signal lines protection applications. Because of its small size, it can be easily installed on tight boards.
