Description

These Transient Voltage Suppressor devices SMCG6072 are a series of Bi-directional Silicon Transient Suppressors used in AC applications where large voltage transients can permanently damage voltage-sensitive components.

These devices SMCG6072 are manufactured using two silicon PN, junctions in a back to back configuration. They are characterized by their high surge capability, fast response time, and low impedance, (R_on) for clamping surge.

The SMCG6072 series, rated for 1500 watts during a one millisecond pulse, can be used to protect sensitive circuits against transients induced by lighting and inductive load switching. The response time of TAZ clamping action is less than (5x10^-9) sec; therefore, they can protect Integrated Circuits, MOS devices, Hybrids, and other voltage-sensitive semiconductors and components. This series of devices has also been proven very effective as EMP and ESD suppressors.
