DESCRIPTION

18-fold monolitic transient voltage suppressor. Its 18-fold junction common anode design protects 18 separate lines using only one package. This device is ideal for situations where board space is a premium.

FEATURES

• SO20 SMD package allows 18 separate voltage regulator diodes in a common anode configuration

• Working voltage: typ. 6.8 V

• Forward voltage: max. 1.3 V

• Maximum reverse peak power dissipation: 27.5 W at tp = 1 ms

• Maximum clamping voltage at peak pulse current: 11 V at 2.5 A

• Low leakage current: max. 2 µA

• ESD rating >8 kV, according IEC 801-2.

APPLICATIONS

• Where transient overvoltage protection in voltage and ESD sensitive equipment is required such as:

– Computers

– Printers

– Business machines

– Communication systems

– Medical equipment.
