## Description
The Bourns SMBJ20A is a unidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode engineered from the reliable SMBJ series, optimized for safeguarding sensitive semiconductor components against high-energy voltage transients. Housed in a low-profile surface-mount DO-214AA (SMB) package with 2 pins, this component delivers a peak pulse power dissipation rating of 600W. It features a reverse standoff voltage of 20V, a minimum breakdown voltage of 22.2V, and a maximum breakdown voltage of 25.5V, ensuring rapid clamping action when voltage thresholds are exceeded.
Designed for robust circuit protection, the diode exhibits a maximum clamping voltage of 32.4V and maintains reliable operation across an operating temperature range extending up to 150°C. Its planar silicon avalanche technology offers fast response times against electrostatic discharge (ESD) and inductive load switching transients. The surface-mount DO-214AA footprint facilitates high-density PCB assembly while providing efficient thermal dissipation paths for high-stress environments.
The SMBJ20A is well-suited for deployment in DC power port protection, power bus regulation, and I/O interface shielding. It is widely utilized in telecommunications infrastructure, enterprise computing systems, industrial automation equipment, and consumer electronics where dependable overvoltage transient protection is required to prevent catastrophic semiconductor failure.

## **Bourns Announces the Expansion of the Model SMA6J, SMA6J-Q, SMBJ-Q, and P6SMB-Q Series TVS Diodes**
_Riverside, California_ – October 30, 2020 – Bourns is pleased to announce the voltage expansion of its 600 watt TVS diodes in both commercial grade and AEC-Q101 compliant, automotive grade. Manufacturers of power supply equipment, communications, data center and automotive components continue to challenge the semiconductor industry to provide broader voltages as well as superior quality components.
The Model SMA6J and SMA6J-Q TVS diode series are housed in an SMA package. The Model SMBJ-Q and P6SMB-Q TVS diode series are housed in an SMB package. All four models are well suited for DC power port protection due to their surge withstanding capability.
