Other Parts Discussed in Thread: THVD2410
Tool/software:
Hi,
- I understand that the AMR for both A and B pin,with respect to Pin5. are -10 to 15V, is it right?
- Are there differential AMR value for A-B and common AMR value for (A+B)/2?

Ken,
our device's warranty is based on the abs max rating. -29V is larger than the abs max differential (-10V-15V=-25V). So we cannot guarantee the device will survive this. We would need to recommend the customer place a bidirectional TVS diode between the A-B pins to clamp the voltage since 1uS is actually kind of long.
Based on what you're showing you may want to try to move the customer to our THVD24xx family which has higher abs max ratings to handle these rougher environments.

Ken,
The other alternative I can think of is to place a bi directional TVS diode between the pins to clamp the voltage. We can ask the protection devices product line for a recommendation if they can make that change (may required a PCB spin).
