    Provides 8000W peak pulse power dissipation in a PCB space-saving DO-214AB SMC package

    High-Power TVS Diodes Protect Vulnerable Electronics

    09/17/2019

    CHICAGO — Littelfuse, Inc. announced a new series of higher surge TVS Diode products in an DO-214AB package. The 8.0SMDJ series is optimized to protect sensitive electronic equipment from transient voltage induced by lightning and other voltage events. Because it combines up to 8000W of peak pulse power dissipation in a compact DO-214AB SMC package, the 8.0SMDJ series offers circuit designers a high-surge, space-saving circuit protection solution that can simplify printed circuit board design and improve reliability significantly.

    Typical markets and applications for the 8.0SMDJ series TVS Diodes include:

    • Data Centers

    • Industrial

    • Home Appliances

    • Consumer Electronics

    • AC and DC Protection

    • Power over Ethernet (PoE) Protection

    • Low-speed Outdoor Port Protection

      The 8.0SMDJ Series TVS Diodes offer these key benefits:

    • High power protection from voltage transients and surge lightning events as well as excellent clamping performance for increased reliability of sensitive electronics.

    • High power density in compact, low profile DO-214AB package allows for quick and easy PCB layout and PCBA assembly while conserving valuable board space.

    • Replaces AC side and DC side MOVs with a solution that provides better reliability, accurate clamping, and fast response time when compared to MOVs.

    Availability
    The 8.0SMDJ Series TVS Diodes are available in tape and reel format in quantities of 3,000. Sample requests may be placed through authorized Littelfuse distributors worldwide. For a listing of Littelfuse distributors, please visit Littelfuse.com.
