Diodes offer voltage transient protection
The new TPSMF4L series of Transient Voltage Suppression (TVS) Diodes from Littelfuse are now available at distributor Rutronik. They are specifically designed to protect sensitive automotive electronic equipment and portable devices from voltage transients induced by load dump and other transient voltage events.
The new AEC-Q101 qualified TVS-diodes offer 400W of peak pulse power dissipation and standard voltage ranges from 5V to 85V. They come in a compact, surface mount, flat-lead SOD-123FL plastic package with a height profile of only 0.98mm.
Thanks to this compact size, they are ideal for portable devices that require high reliability such as hard drives, notebooks, VCC busses, POS terminals, SSDs, power supplies, monitors and other consumer applications.
Also, the diodes are best-suited for DC power protection and ESD protection in automotive electronics like electronics control units, sensors, entertainment systems and body control modules (BCMs).
They help designers meet global regulatory standards.
