Part Number: TVS2700 Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TVS2701 , TVS2201 Hello,
I would like to use the flat clamp devices with a +48VDC supply. Can I stack two of the TVS2701 (Vrwm would then be 54V) in series as with stand TVS devices? I realize the dynamic…
Part Number: ESD321 Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPD1E04U04 , ESD351 , ESDS312 Hello,
I have a data acquisition system for Wheatstone bridges. The sensors are external to the circuit, and connected to the ADC through an onboard connector. I experienced…
Hi Zehui,
Apologies for delay in response.
Q1: Should we consider the positive TVS clamp voltage less than the max rating voltage A to GND(70V)? The recommended TVS in chapter 11.3 seems not meet the requirement?
It says breakdown voltage, not clamping…
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OPA320 Although normally integrated circuits are already protected, it is recommended to "remove" this protection from them.
Given the possible effects ESD and EOD, it should be distinguished that TVS are for…
Hi John,
1. During short circuit or supply generally we have seen that due to path inductance VIN can jump above device abs max and cause EOS damage.
2. I will recommend to move TVS after the choke and choose lesser clamp voltage one to ensure it is clamped…
Hello Kelsey,
Thanks for your inputs. Usually lot of TI LDOs specifies higher voltages on positive side and diode drop on negative voltage typically -0.3V as absolute maximum ratings. So what will happen if i use a unidirectional TVS diode instead of…
hello Rakesh,
i didn't see a differential resistance in TVS datasheets before and always calcualted with max. clamping voltage, so thank you for the example!
i recently also found an intersting TVS with very low clmaping voltage:
The depletion FET…
Part Number: SN65HVDA1040A-Q1 Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TCAN1042-Q1 We are using SN65HVDA1040A-Q1 with maximum data rate of 1Mbps. At bus terminals(CANH, CANL) we are using SMAJ24CA-E3 TVS diodes for protection. This diode have maximum clamping voltage…
Hi Dejan
Thanks for reaching out to us.
"on LM74500Q1EVM board, 33 V bidirectional TVS diode is used. Is there any reason that 36 V TVS diode is not used? I'm planning to use SMLJ36CA TVS diode, which has 58.1 V clamping voltage, which is lower than 60…
