The Pxxx0S3H series DO-214AB protection thyristors are components designed to protect equipment located in hostile environments from overvoltage transients.The Pxxx0S3H series protect exposed interfaces in industrial and ICT applications, such as RS-485 data interfaces, AC or DC power supplies. These components’ switching voltage VS are much lower than alternative Gas Discharge Tubes (GDT), and on-state voltage VT are much lower than alternative GDTs, Metal Oxide Varistors (MOV) and TVS Diodes. This Pxxx0S3H series are rated 2000 A 8/20 μs, enabling equipment compliance with regulatory and customer surge requirements.
High surge rating 8/20 μs 2000 A protection
Component properties do not degrade after multiple surge events within its limits
Low voltage overshoot
Typical failure mode is short from over-specified voltage orcurrent
Whisker test is conducted based on JEDEC JESD201A per its table 4a and 4c passclass 1/2
