New TVS diodes offer reliable ESD and voltage transient protection

Bourns offers two new TVS diode surge protection series created to satisfy the component miniaturisation demanded in today's highly integrated and high power density designs. The company's Model SMF4L and Model SMF4L-Q Series are supplied in a compact, low profile surface mount SOD-123FL package with a height of only 1.125 mm, which is 50% smaller than the company's previous generation SMAJ Series TVS diodes.

The company optimised these high-reliability ESD and voltage transient protection devices for data line, DC power supply and a broad variety of computer, telecom, industrial and consumer electronics applications. Both product series provide standoff voltages of 12V to 58V and a peak pulse power dissipation of 400W at 10/1000μs. Also, Model SMF4L-Q is AEC-Q101 compliant making it ideal for equipment used in particularly challenging environments.
