TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressors) diodes are used to protect circuits against transient voltage or surge conditions, and the SMBJ75CATR is no exception. This unidirectional (withstands current in a single direction) TVS diode has a reverse breakdown voltage of 75V and a stand-off voltage of 53V, which are both rather high figures for a standard TVS diode. It is usually found in overvoltage protection applications such as consumer electronic, automotive, and industrial applications.

The SMBJ75CATR typically works in two ways, depending on the type of transient voltage or surge that threatens the circuit. In the first case, if the applied voltage is less than the peak pulse power rating (PPP) and peak reverse stand-off voltage (PRV) then the device acts as a normal diode, allowing current to flow. If, on the other hand, the applied voltage is higher than the PRV, then the device acts as an open circuit, blocking the current from entering the protected circuit. In the second case, if the applied voltage is lower than the PRV then the device acts like a normal diode and lets the current pass. However, when the applied voltage becomes higher than the PRV, the device acts as a transient (or surge) absorber and clamps the voltage at the TVS\' peak power rating. Thus, the SMBJ75CATR can be used in both overvoltage protection and transient absorption applications.

In addition, the SMBJ75CATR features an ultra-low capacitance characteristic (50pF) and very fast response time (less than 1ns). This makes the SMBJ75CATR well-suited for applications that require very fast response times, such as signal line protection. The clamping voltage range of the device is also relatively wide; it can effectively clamp voltages between 75V (its PRV) and 170V (its PPP).

In summary, the SMBJ75CATR is a unidirectional TVS diode that can be used in overvoltage protection and transient absorption applications. It has a wide clamping voltage range and features an ultra-low capacitance and very fast response time, making it well-suited for signal line protection.
