This document introduces the SMP100LC series low capacitance transient surge arrestors. The series has bidirectional protection, voltage range from 8V to 400V, low capacitance from 20pF to 45pF, leakage current IR = 2µA max, holding current IH = 150 mA min, and repetitive peak pulse current IPP = 100 A (10/1000µs). These products are widely used in sensitive equipment requiring protection against lightning strikes and power crossing, such as communication equipment, data communication equipment and audio and video equipment.
The SMP100LC series consists of low capacitance transient surge arrestors designed for the protection of high data rate communication equipment. These devices are dedicated to central office protection and comply with stressful standards such as GR-1089 Core, ITU-T-K20/K21, and VDE0433. Their low capacitance makes them suitable for ADSL applications, avoiding signal distortion.
