TRANSZORB® Transient Voltage Suppressors

DEVICES FOR BI-DIRECTION APPLICATIONS

For bi-directional types, use CA suffix (e.g. SA5.0CA,

SA170CA).

Electrical characteristics apply in both directions.

FEATURES

• Glass passivated chip junction

• Available in uni-directional and bi-directional

• 500 W peak pulse power capability with a

10/1000 μs waveform, repetitive rate (duty

cycle): 0.01 %

• Excellent clamping capability

• Very fast response time

• Low incremental surge resistance

• Solder dip 275 °C max. 10 s, per JESD 22-B106

• AEC-Q101 qualified

• Material categorization: For definitions of compliance

please see www.vishay.com/doc?99912

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS

Use in sensitive electronics protection against voltage

transients induced by inductive load switching and lighting

on ICs, MOSFET, signal lines of sensor units for consumer,

computer, industrial, and telecommunication.

MECHANICAL DATA

Case: DO-204AC, molded epoxy over passivated chip

Molding compound meets UL 94 V-0 flammability rating

Base P/N-E3 - RoHS compliant, commercial grade

Base P/NHE3 - RoHS compliant, AEC-Q101 qualified

Terminals: Matte tin plated leads, solderable per

J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102

E3 suffix meets JESD 201 class 1A whisker test, HE3 suffix

meets JESD 201 class 2 whisker test
