Frequently Asked Questions
What clamping voltage does SMBJ28CA-TR provide at peak pulse current?
The SMBJ28CA-TR clamps at a maximum of 45.4 V when subjected to a peak pulse current of 13.8 A, ensuring that downstream components in 28 V systems are not exposed to damaging overvoltages during transient events.
Which PCB footprint does the SMBJ28CA-TR use, and how does it affect board layout?
The SMBJ28CA-TR uses the SMB (DO-214AA) surface-mount footprint, which has a compact body that fits standard 2-pad SMB land patterns. Its small size allows placement close to protected nodes, minimizing parasitic inductance and improving transient response on densely populated PCBs.
Can SMBJ28CA-TR protect automotive 24 V battery bus lines from load-dump transients?
Yes, the SMBJ28CA-TR is well suited for 24 V automotive bus protection. With a 28 V standoff voltage and a breakdown voltage minimum of 31.1 V, it remains non-conducting during normal 24 V operation and activates to clamp load-dump spikes, which can exceed 40 V, within a peak pulse current rating of 13.8 A.
How does the bidirectional configuration of SMBJ28CA-TR differ from a unidirectional TVS diode?
A bidirectional TVS like the SMBJ28CA-TR protects against both positive and negative transients by conducting in either polarity, making it suitable for AC signal lines and reverse-polarity conditions. A unidirectional device clamps only in one direction and is used on DC rails where reverse voltage is not expected.
Is SMBJ28CA-TR available in tape-and-reel format for high-volume automated assembly?
Yes, the -TR suffix on SMBJ28CA-TR indicates tape-and-reel packaging. This format provides continuous 3000-piece reels compatible with standard pick-and-place equipment, enabling high-volume automated SMT assembly with a lead time of approximately 13 weeks from STMicroelectronics.
