SMAJ220CA-H

The SMAJ220CA-H TVS diode is a high-speed, low-capacitance transient voltage suppressor, with unidirectional and bidirectional versions in a surface mount SMAJ package. This component limits and diverts the electrical transients (surges or spikes) away from sensitive components (e.g. power supply and control systems). It provides ESD, EFT, and surge protection for high-performance applications.

The SMAJ220CA-H is often used in commercial and industrial applications that demand high-performance surge protection. These include power control systems, computer server/network equipment protection, communication systems, aerospace, aircraft, automotive, industrial process control, and robotics. The SMAJ220CA-H can also be used in consumer electronics, such as smartphones, tablets, entertainment systems, and security systems. With its ability to quickly suppress transients, the SMAJ220CA-H is an ideal choice for transient protection.

The SMAJ220CA-H works by diverting lightning transient pulses away from input/output circuits or other components. This is done using its clamping voltage. A large electrical transient is clamped to the limit voltage of the SMAJ220CA-H during the peak current instant. This results in a peak waveform that is limited to a safe level, protecting the components from damage.

The SMAJ220CA-H is also designed to provide protection against electrostatic discharge (ESD) and electromagnetic interference (EMI). It can withstand up to 100 Amp of peak surge current, making it suitable for applications with high input peak currents. Its 350 W peak power dissipation and low leakage current makes it suitable for wide temperature range use. The SMAJ220CA-H is also available in both unidirectional and bidirectional packages, making it suitable for both AC and DC input applications.

The SMAJ220CA-H features a low clamping voltage, fast response time, and high power dissipation. It also offers superior ESD and EFT protection, with reliable and repeatable performance. The SMAJ220CA-H is tested per IEC 61000-4-2, MIL-STD-1783 and UL recognition 1414 standards, giving it a high level of safety and reliability. It is also available in a variety of standard packages, including SMAJ, SMA, SMB and SMC.

In conclusion, the SMAJ220CA-H TVS diode provides high-speed, low-capacitance transient voltage suppression, providing superior protection against lightning transient pulses and electrostatic discharge. Its ability to quickly suppress transients makes it suitable for applications requiring high-performance surge protection. It is available in both unidirectional and bidirectional packages, making it suitable for both AC and DC inputs. With its fast response time, reliable performance, and testing standards, the SMAJ220CA-H is an ideal choice for providing transient and EMI protection.
