Vishay – New TPCxxCA Series Bi-Directional 1500 W PAR® TVS
Offer High Power Density to Save Board Space and Lower Costs
Vishay Intertechnology introduces the industry’s first bi-directional 1500 W surface-mount PAR transient voltage suppressors (TVS) in the low-profile eSMPTM SMPC (TO-277A) package. With their low height of 1.1 mm, devices in the Vishay General Semiconductor TPCxxCA series offer a 52 % lower profile than TVS in the traditional SMC package, while providing a 38 % smaller footprint to reduce total volume by 70 %.
