Features
passivated junction
• Low profile package with built-in strain relief for
surface mounted applications
• Glass passivated junction
• Low incremental surge resistance
• Low inductance
• Excellent clamping capability
• 1500W peak pulse power capability with a 10/1000µs
waveform, repetition rate (duty cycle): 0.01%
• Very fast response time
Terminals: Solder plated, solderable per MIL-STD-750,
Method 2026. High temperature soldering: 250°C/10
seconds at terminals.
Polarity: For uni-directional types the band denotes the
cathode, which is positive with respect to the anode
under normal TVS operation.
