APPLICATION NOTES
• Respect thermal resistance (PCB Layout) - as the
temperature coefficient also contributes to the clamping
voltage
• Select minimum breakdown voltage, so you get
acceptable power dissipation and PCB tie point
temperature. Devices with higher breakdown voltage will
have a shorter conduction time and will dissipate less
power
• Clamping voltage is influenced by internal resistance design approximation is 7 V per 100 mA slope
• Keep temperature of TVS lower than TOPSwitch® as a
recommendation
• Maximum current is determined by the maximum TJ and
can be higher than 300 mA. Contact supplier for different
clamping voltage/current arrangements
• Minimum breakdown voltage can be customized for other
applications. Contact supplier
• TOPSwitch® is a registered trademark of Power
Integrations, Inc.
