SM712
Asymmerical TVS Diode for
Extended Common-Mode RS-485
PROTECTION PRODUCTS
Description
Features
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), eletrical fast transients (EFT), and
lightning.
• Transient Protection to
s IEC 61000-4-2 (ESD): ±30kV (Air), ±30kV (Contact)
s IEC 61000-4-4 (EFT): 40A (5/50ns)
s IEC 61000-4-5 (Lightning): 21A for 12V TVS & 38A
for 7V TVS (tp = 8/20µs)
• Protects two +12V to -7V lines
• Peak pulse power (tp = 8/20μs): 500-700W
• Low capacitance
• Low clamping voltage
• Solid-State Silicon-Avalanche Technology
The SM712 features more than 500 Watts (tp = 8/20
μs) of power handling capability to accommodate the
higher transient voltage levels which may be expected
in extended commom mode applications. This provides
higher equipment reliability and eliminates the “guess
work“ required when using Zener diodes that are not
rated to handle such transient conditions.

The SM712 replaces four discrete components by
integrating two 12V and two 7V TVS diodes in a single
package. The integrated design aids in reducing voltage
over-shoot associated with trace inductance. The low
clamping voltage of SM712 minimizes the stress on the
protected transceiver.

Application Information
RS-485 Common Mode Voltages
Device Connection for Protection of Two RS-485 Data
Lines
EIA RS-485 specifies a ±7V ground difference between
devices on the bus. This permits the bus voltage to
range from +12V (5V + 7V) to -7V (0-7V).

A
The SM712 is designed to protect two RS-485 data lines
in extended common mode applications. The SM712
may be used to protect devices from transient voltages
resulting from ESD, EFT, and lightning. The device is
designed with asymmetrical operating voltages for
optimum protection. The TVS diodes at pins 1 and
2 have a working voltage of 12 volts. These pins are
connected to the differential data line pairs. The TVS
diodes at pin 3 have a working voltage of 7 volts. Pin 3
is connected to ground. The internal TVS diodes of the
SM712 will protect the transceiver input from positive
transient votlage spikes greater than 12V and negative
spikes greater than 7V.

Circuit Board Layout Recommendations
Good circuit board layout is critical for the suppression
of fast rise time transients such as ESD. The following

SM712
Place the SM712 near the input terminals or
connectors to restrict electromagnetic coupling.
Minimize the path length between the SM712 and
the protected line. This minimizes voltage overshoot
due to parastic inductance of board traces.
Use ground planes whenever possible.
Long, single trace ground conductors should
be avoided. The ground pin (Pin 3) should be
connected directly to a ground plane on the circuit
board for best results.
Minimize all conductive loops including power and
ground loops.
Never run critical signals near board edges.
