Littelfuse announced the launch of the new SMTOAK2 transient suppression diode series. Nowadays, many high-power, high surge rated transient suppression diodes can only be packaged in axial lead type. Via compact 2kA 8/20 μ The SMTOAK2 transient suppression diode series with a surface mount rating of s enables electronic equipment designers to achieve more stable transient voltage, overvoltage protection and lightning protection systems, while taking up less space on the printed circuit board (PCB).
The SMTOAK2 transient suppression diode series is ideal for high power density applications requiring strong protection in small sizes, including:
● ICT, medical and industrial DC power supply equipment;
● High power DC bus protection;
● DC power supply equipment exposed to harsh environment;
● Power over Ethernet (PoE) port;
● Micro base station, micro base station, remote radio unit (RRU), baseband unit (BBU);
● High power density SiC and GAN based DC/DC converter/power supply equipment.
"The application of more efficient power supply equipment, high current and high-speed MOSFET/IGBT design is becoming more and more popular worldwide, and the regulatory requirements are becoming higher and higher," said Ben Huang, senior product marketing manager of Littelfuse, "These fast switch designs require anti inductance backlash protection. By using the high-power SMTOAK2 transient suppression diode series, designers can achieve high reliability and durability while reducing the required board space and assembly time."
The SMTOAK2 transient suppression diode series has the following main advantages:
● Protect high cost, high current and high-speed MOSFET/IGBT circuits from inductive impact, with low clamping voltage and high surge rating.
● Through the improved compact SMTO-263 surface mount, designers can achieve powerful circuit protection with smaller PCB space, and its size is 50% smaller than SMTO-218 surface mount solution.
● Compatible with automated PCB assembly process, saving time and reducing cost.
