DESCRIPTION
APPEARANCE
These Microsemi 15 kW Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVSs) are
designed for applications requiring protection of voltage-sensitive electronic
devices that may be damaged by harsh or severe voltage transients
including lightning per IEC61000-4-5 and class levels with various source
impedances described herein. This series is available in 17 to 280 volt
standoff voltages (VWM) in both unidirectional and bi-directional offered in
two different package designs for axial and radial configurations.
Microsemi also offers numerous other TVS products to meet higher or
lower power demands and special applications
CASE 5A
(DO-204AR)
