## **Features** - Peak pulse power: - 600 W (10/1000 μs) - - 4 kW (8/20 μs) - 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 over stress 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). Transil™ is a trademark of STMicroelectronics. - Stand-off voltage range: from 5 V to 188 V - Unidirectional and bidirectional types - Low leakage current: - 0.2 μA at 25 °C - 1 μA at 85 °C - Operating Tj max: 150 °C - High power capability at Tj max: - 515 W (10/1000 μs) - JEDEC registered package outline ## **Complies with the following standards** - IEC 61000-4-2 level 4: - 15 kV (air discharge) - 8 kV (contact discharge) - IEC 61000-4-5 - MIL STD 883G, method 3015-7: class 3B: - 25 kV HBM (human body model) - Resin meets UL 94, V0 - MIL-STD-750, method 2026 soldererability - EIA STD RS-481 and IEC 60286-3 packing - IPC 7531 footprint This is information on a product in full production.
