SM712

Overview

The SM712 transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode is designed for asymmetrical (12V to -7V) protection in multi-point data transmission standard RS-485 applications. The SM712 may be used to protect devices from transient voltages resulting from electrostatic discharge (ESD), eletrical fast transients (EFT), and lightning.

  • Transient Protection to s IEC 61000-4-2 (ESD): ±30kV (Air), ±30kV (Contact) s IEC 61000-4-4 (EFT): 40A (5/50ns) s IEC 61000-4-5 (Lightning): 21A for 12V TVS & 38A for 7V TVS (tp = 8/20µs)
  • Protects two +12V to -7V lines
  • Peak pulse power (tp = 8/20μs): 500-700W
