BOURNS CDSOD323 TVS Diode Array, Bidirectional, 3.3V, SOD-323

The BOURNS CDSOD323-T03C is a Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) Array Diode designed to provide robust surge and Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) protection in sensitive electronic circuits. Packaged in the compact SOD-323 format, this bidirectional diode offers reliable clamping to safeguard components from potentially damaging voltage transients.

This TVS array series provides a selection of voltage ratings from 3 to 24V, with this specific variant rated for an operating voltage of 3.3V. A key feature is its exceptionally low typical capacitance of just 3pF, making it ideal for protecting high-speed data lines and I/O ports without compromising signal integrity. It is engineered to protect one individual line or a single I/O port effectively.

The device boasts a maximum clamping voltage of 19V at 1A, ensuring that any transient surge is swiftly and safely limited to a non-destructive level. Furthermore, it maintains a very low maximum leakage current of 5μA, contributing to power efficiency in the protected circuit. Bourns® chip diodes are manufactured to conform to JEDEC standards, ensuring consistent quality and reliability.

Designed for compatibility with modern assembly processes, the flat configuration of the SOD-323 package minimises 'roll away' on production lines, and the component is easy to handle with standard pick-and-place equipment. It is an ESD-sensitive device, so proper handling precautions are necessary during installation.

Applications

This TVS diode array is perfectly suited for a wide range of electronic applications where reliable circuit protection is paramount. Its low capacitance and robust clamping performance make it a go-to component for safeguarding sensitive interfaces and processors.
