For high-temperature stability in high-reliability conditions, the TVS devices released today feature patented PAR construction for a temperature range of − 65 °C to + 185 °C. The TPC series offers a peak forward surge current of 200 A and excellent clamping capability from 10.5 V to 61.9 V.
The TVS devices are designed to protect sensitive automotive equipment from voltage transients induced by inductive load switching in accordance to IEC61000-4-4 and IEC61000-4-5, and electrostatic discharge (ESD) in accordance to IEC61000-4-2.
Ideal for automated placement, the TPC series offers low incremental surge resistance and fast response time. The devices meet MSL Level 1 standards, per J-STD-020C, are compliant to RoHS directive 2002/95/EC and WEEE 2002/96/EC, and are halogen-free in accordance with IEC 61249-2-21. The new devices are also qualified to AEC-Q101.
