Nexperia boosts protection portfolio with three new miniature, high-performance TVS diode families
September 05, 2017Nijmegen -- Targets interfaces with high surge protection requirements including USB Power Delivery in portable devices
Nexperia, the former Standard Products division of NXP, today announced three miniature TVS diode families that are available in space-saving packages for applications in portable devices, including USB – Power Delivery (USB-PD) protection. All the new parts feature high surge ratings and high peak pulse power.
Taking up just 1 x 0.6 mm (DFN1006-2/SOD882 package) of PCB space and with a height of 0.5 mm, the new PTVS4V5D1BL TVS diode delivers very good clamping characteristics and a typical surge robustness of 38.3 A (8/20 µA pulse), which is industry benchmark for a device of this size and specification. Applications include battery line and audio port protection.
The new PTVSxZ1USK series includes 10 new types within a reverse standoff voltage range from 5 V to 26 V (VRWM). These tiny devices measure just 1.6 x 0.8 mm and are 0.29 mm high (DSN1608-2 / SOD964 package). This is a significant reduction of package height compared to devices currently available in this performance class which are usually 0.5 mm high. The new Nexperia parts handle surge ratings up to 100 A (8/20 µA pulse). They also have an ultra-low dynamic resistance of 0.06Ω. Devices provide surge protection in charger ports, battery connectors and hard disks/SSDs.
Three new 20 V, 22 V and 24 V parts complete Nexperia’s PTVSxU1UPA TVS family which now comprises nine diodes covering 7.5 V to 26 V. Devices come in the DFN2020-3 (SOT1061) package which has a footprint of 2 x 2 mm and a profile of just 0.62 mm. Surge rating is up to a maximum of 178 A for a 8/20 µA pulse; peak pulse power is up to 300 W for 10/1000 µs pulse and leakage current is down to 1 nA. The new parts target USB-PD applications.
Comments Henning Riedel. Product Manager Protection, Nexperia: “We are already the leading supplier of ESD protection diodes, and with these new introductions in small, leadless packages we have strengthened our TVS portfolio to suit emerging mobile applications such as USB PD.”
