SLVSEQ5A September 2018 – December 2018 TVS2701
PRODUCTION DATA.
The TVS2701 is specified according to both the IEC 61000-4-5 and IEC 61643-321 standards. This enables usage in systems regardless of which standard is required by relevant product standards or best matches measured fault conditions. The IEC 61000-4-5 standard requires protection against a pulse with a rise time of 8 µs and a half-length of 20 µs, while the IEC 61643-321 standard requires protection against a much longer pulse with a rise time of 10 µs and a half-length of 1000 µs.
The positive and negative surges are imposed to the TVS2701 by a combination wave generator (CWG) with a 2-Ω coupling resistor at different peak voltage levels. For powered-on transient tests that need power supply bias, inductances are used to decouple the transient stress and protect the power supply. The TVS2701 is post-tested by assuring that there is no shift in device breakdown or leakage at VRWM.
In addition, the TVS2701 has been tested according to IEC 61000-4-5 to pass a ±1-kV surge test through a 42-Ω coupling resistor and a 0.5-µF capacitor. This test is a common test requirement for industrial signal I/O lines and the TVS2701 precision clamp can be used in applications that have that requirement.
The TVS2701 integrates IEC 61000-4-2 level 4 ESD Protection and 80 A of IEC 61000-4-4 EFT Protection. These combine to ensure that the device can protect against most common transient test requirements.
