[CRYDOM]

Get TVS Insurance From
The People Who Know
There’s too much riding on over-voltage surge protection to take chances. That’s why more and more people are turning to Crydom.

Crydom’s SiBOD Series Equals
“Crow Bar” Protection
To protect sensitive telecommunications circuitry, Crydom Thyristors (SiBOD™ Breakover Devices) “crow bar” potential ly dangerous transients – switching them to ground and dissipating the voltage to zero. This approach can handle more energy than TVS diode “clamping.”

• Glass passivated junction
• Bi-directional transient voltage protection
• Nano second clamping response
• Surge capability up to 500 amps
• No performance degradation under service life

BENEFITS
• One component cost for +ve and -ve protection
• Excellent voltage protection levels
• Can be used for primary or secondary protection
• No replacement required ie, no maintenance cost
• Highest level of quality and reliability
• Low cost auto assembly

MECHANICAL CHARACTERISTICS
• Transfer molded, void free epoxy body
• Tin/Lead plated leads
• Maximum case temperature for soldering purposes: 230°C for 10 seconds
