SA9.0A B0G Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SA9.0A B0G is a unidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation. This component is designed for general-purpose transient voltage suppression applications, featuring a 9V reverse standoff voltage and 15.4V maximum clamping voltage. The device is packaged in a DO-204AC (DO-15) through-hole axial configuration and is rated for 34A peak pulse current with 500W peak pulse power dissipation.

The SA9.0A B0G is currently discontinued at DiGi Electronics. Identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity and ensure component availability for production, repair, and maintenance applications.
