Transient Voltage Suppressors
SA5V0(C)A - SA170(C)A
Features
• Glass passivated junction.
• 500W Peak Pulse Power capability on
10/1000 µs waveform.
• Excellent clamping capability.
• Low incremental surge resistance.
• Fast response time; typically less
than 1.0 ps from 0 volts to BV for
unidirectional and 5.0 ns for
bidirectional.
DO-15
COLOR BAND DENOTES CATHODE
ON UNIDIRECTIONAL DEVICES ONLY. NO
COLOR BAND ON BIDIRECTIONAL DEVICES.
• Typical IR less than 1.0 µA above 10V.
DEVICES FOR BIPOLAR APPLICATIONS
- Bidirectional types use CA suffix.
- Electrical Characteristics apply in both directions.
