Description
The SM6T Transil series are designed to protect
sensitive equipment against electrostatic
discharges according to IEC 61000-4-2 and MIL
STD 883, method 3015, and electrical overstress
according to IEC 61000-4-4 and 5. These
devices are more generally used against surges
below 600 W (10/1000 μs).
The Planar technology makes it suitable for high-
end equipment and SMPS where low leakage
current and high junction temperature are
required to provide reliability and stability over
time.
SM6T are packaged in SMB (SMB footprint in
accordance with IPC 7531 standard).

Notes:
(1)Pulse test: tp < 50 ms
(2)To calculate VBR or VCL versus junction temperature, use the following formulas:
VBR at TJ = VBR at 25 °C x (1 + αT x (TJ - 25)) VCL at TJ = VCL at 25 °C x (1 + αT x (TJ-25))
(3)To calculate maximum clamping voltage at other surge level, use the following formula:
VCLmax = VBR max + RD x IPPappli where IPPappli is the surge current in the application
(4)Surge capability given for both directions for unidirectional and bidirectional types.
