MP5KE5.0A – MP5KE170CA(e3)
Available
500 Watt Transient Voltage Suppressor
(TVS) Protection Device
DESCRIPTION
This MP5KE5.0A – MP5KE170CA is a family of economical 500 W transient voltage
supppressors (TVS) for protecting voltage-sensitive components from destruction or
degradation. It is available in both unidirectional and bi-directional configurations as well as
RoHS compliant (annealed matte-tin finish) and upscreened, enhanced high reliability options.
The response time of their clamping time is virtually instantaneous. As a result, they may also
be used effectively for protection from ESD or EFT per IEC61000-4-2 and IEC61000-4-4 or for
inductive switching environments and induced RFI. They can also be used for protection from
the secondary effects of lightning per IEC61000-4-5 at the class levels listed below.
Screening in
reference to
MIL-PRF-19500
available
