About this manual

Central Semiconductor’s 1.5 W surface‑mount silicon Zener diodes are designed for commercial, industrial, entertainment, computer and automotive applications where a small footprint is required. The SMA case occupies about 30 % less board space than the larger SMB case.

Key specifications include a maximum power dissipation of 1.5 W, peak forward surge current of 20 A, thermal resistance QJA of 139 °C/W, and a forward voltage of 1.5 V at 200 mA. The product family covers Zener voltages from 6.8 V up to 200 V with a tight ±5 % tolerance.
