DESCRIPTION
The MSMCG(J)5.0A through MXLSMCG(J)170A series of 1500 watt high-reliability Transient
Voltage Suppressors (TVSs) protects a variety of voltage-sensitive components. The SMCG gull-
wing design in the DO-215AB package allows for visible solder connections. The SMCJ J-bend
design in the DO-214AB package allows for greater PC board mounting density. Selections include
unidirectional and bidirectional as well as RoHS compliant versions. These are available with a
variety of upscreening options for enhanced reliability. They can protect against the secondary
effects of lightning per IEC61000-4-5 and against voltage pulses from inductive switching
environments and induced by RF radiation. Since their response time is virtually instantaneous,
they can also be used in protection from ESD and EFT per IEC61000-4-2 and IEC61000-4-4.
