SEMTECH SDxx TVS Diode, Bidirectional, 12.8V, SOT-23, 3-Pin
SEMTECH bidirectional TVS diode array protects 12V lines from ESD, EFT & lightning. 12.8V standoff, 21.2V clamp, SOT-23 package.
The SEMTECH SDC15 is a high-performance TVS Diode Array designed for robust ESD protection of 12V data and power lines. This transient voltage suppressor is engineered to shield sensitive components connected to data and transmission lines from damaging voltage surges. These surges can be caused by electrostatic discharge (ESD), electrical fast transients (EFT), and lightning-induced spikes.
TVS diodes are prized for their high surge capability, exceptionally low operating and clamping voltages, and extremely fast response time. This combination of features makes the SDC15 ideal for providing reliable board-level protection for sensitive semiconductor components in demanding electronic environments.
The device utilises a dual-junction common-cathode design, allowing users to effectively protect one bidirectional data or power line operating at ±12 volts. This sophisticated design ensures comprehensive protection in a compact format.
