9.2.2.6 Input Cap, Input TVS, and OR-ing FET selection

This design example is sized for an application that needs to pass a 2 kV, 2Ω lightning strike per IEC61000-4-5. This equates to almost 1000 A of input current that needs to be clamped. In addition, the design needs to pass reverse hook up and thus the TVS needs to be bi directional. A ceramic transient voltage suppressor (2x B72540T6500S162) CT2220K50E2G was used to clamp this huge surge of current. According to it's datasheet it can clamp 500 A of current to 150 V. Note that the lightning strike can be positive or negative. The worst case voltage is dropped across the OR-ing FETs when the strike is positive (–48 V line goes above RTN). If the output of the OR-ing is –48 V and the input goes to +150 V that is a 200 V drop. Thus BSC320N20NS3 was chosen for the OR-ing FETs. This is a 200 V FET with a 32 mΩ RDSON at room temperature. 2 of these were used in parallel to minimize power loss and manage thermal. Finally a 0.1 µF input bypass cap is recommended.
