TVS3301: Energy Calculation

Part Number: TVS3301
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TVS2701, STRIKE

We found the defective units with TVS3301 during ESD test. I wonder to know how to know the power rating and how to calculate it?

Regards

  • Hello Brian,

    Why do you think you recieved a defective unit? Did the part fail during the testing? Our part is rated to +/-8kV contact and +/-15kV air gap and will survive that level. However if your system did not survive an ESD strike of this magnitude you might want to get a lower clamping TVS diode like TVS2701.
