Littelfuse – New Automotive Grade TVS Diode Array Offers More Protection from Surges, ESD than Similar Components
Features:
- Very low dynamic resistance (RDYN): SM05: 0.19Ω; SM12: 0.25Ω; SM15: 0.30Ω; SM24: 0.50Ω; SM36: 0.65Ω
- Robust surge protection: Peak pulse power: 400W (tP=8/20µs); lightning, IEC61000-4-5 (tP=8/20µs)
- Enhanced ESD capability: IEC61000-4-2: ±30kV contact, ±30kV air
Benefits:
- Greatly reduces clamping voltages, ensuring modern ICs survive industry-defined electrical threats, such as ESD (IEC61000-4-2) and lightning-induced surges (IEC61000-4-5)
- 25% higher power handling capability than similar solutions offers more design margin to electrical threats as defined by industry standards
- 2-3 times higher ESD withstand capability than similar solutions, which far exceeds the highest level of the IEC61000-4-2 standard (Level 4, ±8kV), ensuring maximum reliability of equipment in the field
