Features
Glass passivated junction.
500W Peak Pulse Power capability on
10/1000 µs waveform.
Excellent clamping capability.
Low incremental surge resistance.
Fast response time; typically less
than 1.0 ps from 0 volts to BV for
unidirectional and 5.0 ns for
bidirectional.
Typical IR less than 1.0 µA above 10V.
DEVICES FOR BIPOLAR APPLICA TIONS
- Bidirectional types use CA suffix.
- Electrical Characteristics apply in both directions.
