Overview
The SM712 transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode is designed for asymmetrical (12V to -7V) protection in multi-point data transmission standard RS-485 applications. The SM712 may be used to protect devices from transient voltages resulting from electrostatic discharge (ESD), electrical fast transients (EFT) and lightning.
Features
- 400 watts peak pulse power (tp = 8/20 µs)
- Transient protection for asymmetrical data lines to
- IEC 61000-4-2 (ESD) ± 15 kV (air), ± 8 kV (contact)
- IEC 61000-4-4 (EFT) 40 A (5/50 ns)
- IEC 61000-4-5 (Lightning) 12 A (8/20 µs)
- Protects two +12 V – -7 V lines
- Low capacitance
- Low clamping voltage
- Solid-state silicon-avalanche technology
- Lead-free, RoHS and WEEE compliant
