TVS diodes feature industry's highest surge capability

摘要

NXP Semiconductors' SOD123W transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode, housed in a FlatPower package, offers a 400W peak pulse power rating and dissipates about 67W/mm~2 surge per PCB area-more than twice the surge capability on offer in the market by TVS products in similar packages. Qualified to the rigorous AEC-Q101 standard, the new FlatPower TVS device can be used for all automotive and industrial applications. The device has very low leakage current of 1nA, and can also be used in battery driven products such as mobile phones and notebook PCs. Measuring 2.6×l.7×1mm, the SOD123W fits on a SMA footprint.
