In February 2014, Littelfuse introduced its series of two-channel, general-purpose TVS diode arrays (SPA diodes) optimised to help circuit designers protect sensitive equipment from the damage caused by electrostatic discharge (ESD), electrical fast transients (EFT) and lightning-induced surges. The SM series of TVS diode arrays are available in five voltage options: 5 V, 12 V, 15 V, 24 V and 36 V. All voltage options provide very low dynamic resistance for clamping performance. This ensures optimal performance to protect today’s sensitive electronics. The series can absorb repetitive ESD strikes above the maximum level specified in international standards without performance degradation and safely dissipate up to 24A of induced surge current. These diode arrays provide robust protection against electrical threats to datacom ports like RS-232, RS-485, RS-422, RS-423, etc, which are commonly used in automation equipment, diagnostic devices, security and alarm systems, printers, test equipment, etc.
