SMAJ22CA-13-F Circuit Protection

Transient voltage suppressors (TVS) are designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from lightning surges, electrostatic discharge (ESD) and other sources of transient high voltage. The SMAJ22CA-13-F TVS Diode is a unidirectional voltage clamp device specifically designed to protect sensitive electronics from transient voltage spikes. It is rated to provide up to 22 volts of fast clamping action, and its surface mount capability makes it ideal for use in portable electronic equipment.

The SMAJ22CA-13-F has a breakdown voltage of 22 V and a peak pulse power of 500 watts, making it perfect for protecting sensitive devices from overvoltage transients up to 22V. This device has reverse leakage current of 50 uA maximum at rated voltage, and it can withstand a transient voltage up to 5,000 V. The SMAJ22CA-13-F also offers excellent surge capability, making it ideal for power surge or voltage spike protection in a wide range of portable electronics.

The SMAJ22CA-13-F TVS Diode is designed to provide transient voltage protection for a wide range of electronic devices, including cell phones, communication systems, PDAs, and other devices connected to the mains power source. It can be used in both AC and DC applications, and it is often used in data communication lines, where large induced spikes can cause data errors or even failure of the entire system.

The working principle of the SMAJ22CA-13-F is quite simple. When an overvoltage transient occurs, it acts as a fast-switching device to clamp the voltage in the circuit. This clamping action prevents damage to the protected circuit by limiting the voltage to its rated breakdown voltage (22 V). This ensures that any surges the system might encounter will be diverted away from sensitive components, thus protecting them from harm.

The SMAJ22CA-13-F TVS Diode is a highly reliable and cost-effective device for transient voltage protection. It is designed to help protect portable electronic devices from overvoltage transients and power surges, and to provide reliable performance under harsh environmental conditions. Its surface mount technology and low reverse leakage current make it an ideal solution for use in today’s electronic products.
