Description
The SMBJ Transil series has been designed to
protect sensitive equipment against electrostatic
discharges according to IEC 61000-4-2, and
MIL STD 883, method 3015, and electrical
overstress according to IEC 61000-4-4 and 5.
These devices are more generally used against
surges below 600 W (10/1000 μs).
Planar technology makes these devices suitable
for high-end equipment and SMPS where low
leakage current and high junction temperature are
required to provide reliability and stability over
time.
SMBJ are packaged in SMB (SMB footprint in
accordance with IPC 7531 standard).

1. Pulse test : tp < 50 ms
2. To calculate maximum clamping voltage at other surge level,use the following formula: VCLmax = VCL - RD x (IPP - IPPappli)
where IPPappli is the surge current in the application
3. To calculate VBR or VCL versus junction temperature, use the following formulas:
VBR @ TJ = VBR @ 25°C x (1 + αT x (TJ – 25))
VCL @ TJ = VCL @ 25°C x (1 + αT x (TJ – 25))
4. Surge capability given for both directions for unidirectional and bidirectional types.
