LX7710
Octal 125V, 700mA Redundant Diode Pairs for Space
Description
The LX7710 is a diode array that features high breakdown voltage diodes with ESD protection and built-in redundancy that is radiation-hardened by design. It is typically used as a companion device to the AAHS298B source driver to build redundant power switches.
The array contains 8 series connected diode pairs, and is intended for power ORing applications and for redundant diode clamps for inductive loads. The series connected diodes are redundant should one of the diodes fail in a short circuit.
Individual diodes within the array have a 125V maximum reverse voltage rating, and can each handle 700mA continuous current, which is 5.6A per package.
