TGL41-6.8 to TGL41-200CA is a 500 watt peak pulse power transient voltage suppressor (TVS) that provides the industry's highest level of peak pulse power (PPP) in the DO-213AB size MELF package. These PPP levels offer protection from switching transients, induced RF, secondary lightning, as well as ESD or EFT where these devices are also compliant to IEC61000-4-2 and IEC61000-4-4. In addition to unidirectional TVS configurations, this series also offers bidirectional options with C or CA suffix. Its configuration in a MELF package prevents lead damage to terminals and also reduces inductive parasitics for minimal transient voltage overshoots.
The TGL41‑6.8 to TGL41‑200CA series are 500 W surface‑mount transient voltage suppressors (TVS) in a DO‑213AB MELF package. They protect against switching transients, induced RF, lightning, ESD and EFT and meet IEC 61000‑4‑2/4‑4 standards. Both unidirectional and bidirectional (C/CA suffix) options are offered.
Key specifications include a peak pulse power of 500 W, standby dissipation of 3 W, peak forward surge current of 40 A, operating temperature range of –55 °C to +150 °C, and a weight of about 0.06 g. The devices are supplied in tape‑and‑reel format and feature low inductive parasitics for fast response times.
