SMAJ15A Alternative / Equivalent / Replacement - 400W TVS Diode 15V SMA | YINT

Need a reliable SMAJ15A replacement for compact DC protection designs? YINT Electronics provides a compatible SMAJ15A alternative that matches the key specifications of Littelfuse, Vishay, and ON Semiconductor devices. Designed for 12V DC rail protection, this TVS diode helps suppress transient voltage surges while fitting space-constrained SMD circuit layouts.

1. Product Overview

The SMAJ15A is a 400W unidirectional TVS diode that protects 12V DC rails from transients caused by ESD, inductive load switching, and surge events. It has a stand-off voltage of 15.00V, breakdown range of 16.70V to 18.50V, and clamping voltage of 24.40V. The device responds in less than 1 nanosecond and delivers 16.40A peak pulse current in the SMA package.

Engineers looking for a SMAJ15A replacement for Littelfuse, Vishay, ON Semiconductor, Diodes Incorporated, STMicroelectronics, Bourns, or Taiwan Semiconductor can confidently specify YINT's SMAJ15A. It operates from -55C to +150C and suits automotive electronics, industrial boards, and power supplies.
