Hi Andrew,
I want to confirm one point. Should the TVS Diodes (EC7, EC9, EC10) need to connect after the Fuse (RT7, RT9) as shown in the schematic shared (Connector---> Fuse---> TVS Diode---> TO ISO1044 IC) or Shall I need to connect the TVS Diode next to the connector and then to Fuse (Connector---> TVS Diode---> Fuse---> TO ISO1044 IC)?
Thanks.
Hello Akash,
In general, the TVS diodes should be placed as close as possible to the connector. In cases where the fuse is intended to protect the TVS diode from an over current, then place the fuse before the TVS diode (still as close as possible to the connector).
Please note that this is not my area of expertise. If you would like to know more details, please create a new thread with one of TI's TVS diodes (https://www.ti.com/interface/diodes/tvs-diodes/overview.html).
Best,
Andrew
