DESCRIPTION
APPEARANCE
The ICTE-5 through ICTE-45C series of Transient Voltage
Suppressors (TVSs) are designed for the protection of integrated
circuits that require very low Clamping Voltages (VC) during a
transient threat. Due to their very fast response time, protection
level and high Peak Pulse Power (PPP) capability, they are extremely
effective in providing protection against line transients generated by:
voltage reversals, capacitive or inductive load switching,
electromechanical switching, electrostatic discharge and
electromagnetic coupling.

FEATURES
APPLICATIONS / BENEFITS
•
•
This series of TVS devices is designed to protect
Bipolar, MOS and Schottky improved integrated
circuits.
•
These transient voltage suppressors are
designed for the protection of integrated
circuits. Characterized by a very low
clamping voltage together with a low standoff
voltage, they afford a high degree of
protection to: TTL, ECL, DTL, MOS, CMOS,
VMOS, HMOS, NMOS and static memory
circuits.
Transient protection for CMOS, MOS, Bipolar,
ICS (TTL, ECL, DTL, RTL and linear functions)
•
