Description

Transil diode arrays provide high overvoltage protection by clamping action. Their instantaneous response to transient overvoltages makes them particularly suited to protect voltage sensitive devices such as MOS technology and low voltage supplied IC’s.

The ITA series allies high surge capability against energetic pulses with high voltage performance against ESD.

Features

■ High surge capability Transil array: IPP = 40 A (8/20 µs)

■ Peak pulse power : 300 W (8/20 µs)

■ Up to 6 bidirectional Transil functions

■ Low clamping factor (VCL / VBR) at high current level

■ Low leakage current

■ ESD protection up to 15 kV

Complies with the following standards

■ IEC 61000-4-2 level 4

– 15 kV (air discharge)

– 8 kV (contact discharge)

■ MIL STD 883G- Method 3015-7: class 3B

– 25 kV (human body model)

Applications

Data transmission lines protection, such as:

■ Unipolar signal up to 5.5 V

■ Bipolar signal in the ± 2.5 V range
