eSMP® SMPC TVS Diodes Vishay General Semiconductors eSMP® SMPC TVS Diodes are 1500W, surface-mount, transient voltage suppressors (TVS) with a 27% smaller footprint than the traditional SMC package. The SMPC devices are developed to protect sensitive equipment from voltage transients, induced by inductive load switching and electrostatic discharge (ESD). The diodes provide a peak forward surge current of 200A with efficient clamping capability. Vishay General Semiconductors eSMP SMPC TVS Diodes feature low incremental surge resistance and fast response time. The series is ideal for automated placement.
