ATV15C900J-HF Circuit Protection

TVS - diodes are designed to protect vulnerable electronic components from transient voltage surges. In addition, these devices are also used to limit overvoltage and control ESD (electrostatic discharge). The ATV15C900J-HF is an example of such a device.

The ATV15C900J-HF is a high-performance 400W, 15 A, bidirectional transient voltage suppressor designed for ESD and surge suppression applications. This device is in conformity with the latest IEC 61000-4-2 standards for ESD protection and it is suitable for use in automotive, computer, communication and consumer electronics. The ATV15C900J-HF is housed in a miniature, surface mount package making it the ideal choice for space-constrained designs.

The ATV15C900J-HF comprises an electrostatic discharge suppressor (ESD) component and a nonlinear resistor (NLR) component. The ESD portion of the device absorbs fast transients by clamping them to a safe voltage level while the NLR portion absorbs slow transients by dissipating their energy.

The ATV15C900J-HF\'s surge current capability makes it ideal for use in applications where high peak power levels, fast response times and low clamping voltages are required. The device has a low on-state resistance which ensures a low clamping voltage. In addition, the device can withstand multiple 10,000 Ω ESD strikes in both directions making it an excellent solution for multiple ESD protection requirements. Additionally, the device is designed to limit overvoltages with high clamping performance, robustness and excellent surge capability.

The ATV15C900J-HF\'s surge capability ensures that it can withstand continuous surge currents up to 400W. Furthermore, the device\'s clamping voltage is designed to keep the voltage far below the critical breakdown point of the equipment on which it is protecting.

The ATV15C900J-HF\'s fast response and precise voltage regulation make it ideal for use in applications where transients need to be suppressed fast. These features ensure that any surge transients are quickly clamped and dissipated, providing reliable protection of the equipment. Furthermore, the device\'s low operating current and temperature rise ensure that it can operate in high-temperature, low-electricity-consumption environments.

In summary, the ATV15C900J-HF is a high-performance 400W, 15 A, bidirectional transient voltage suppressor designed for ESD and surge suppression applications. This device is in conformity with the latest IEC 61000-4-2 standards for ESD protection and it is suitable for use in automotive, computer, communication and consumer electronics. The ATV15C900J-HF\'s surge capability ensures that it can withstand continuous surge currents up to 400W and its low on-state resistance ensures a low clamping voltage. Furthermore, the device\'s fast response and precise voltage regulation make it ideal for suppressing quickly any transient surges while keeping the voltage well below the critical breakdown point of the equipment.
