ON TSPDs protect sensitive electronic equipment

ON Semiconductor

Thyristor Surge Protection Devices

ON Semiconductor has introduced the NP-MC series of ultra-low capacitance Thyristor Surge Protection Devices (TSPDs) that protect sensitive electronic equipment from transient overvoltage conditions.

The devices provide protection with minimal signal distortion in high-speed xDSL, T1/E1 and other broadband data-transmission equipment.

Available with a full range of industry-standard voltage levels and surge current ratings from 50 to 200A, the series provides a solution for DSLAM, FTTx, ethernet, POE and VoIP systems.

The low nominal offstate capacitance translates into low differential capacitance, offering high linearity with applied voltage or frequency.

The devices have low leakage currents, precise turn-on voltages, low voltage overshoot and high-surge current capability.

The bidirectional, surface-mount devices enable designers to achieve compliance with the various industry regulatory standards such as GR-1089-CORE, ITU-T-K.20/K.21/K.45 and IEC 60950.

The Pb-free series is housed in a 2.6 x 4.3mm SMB package, the Pb-free.
