DESCRIPTION APPEARANCE
The PHP and PIP bidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) modules are
designed for applications requiring “across the line” ac power protection. They are
used where extreme voltage transients can permanently damage voltage-sensitive
systems or components. These devices are most often used when discrete TVS
components do not have sufficient power requirements to suppress high power
surges. These modules can be used to protect equipment from induced lightning,
power surges, and transients originating from inductive switching or power interrupt
for both commercial and military applications. This includes telecommunications,
central office switching and PABX, CATV distribution, aircraft, shipboard, computers,
distributed data processing and power supplies. The subassembly components can
also be tested or screened for military requirements prior to encapsulation into the
complete module. The screening would consist of 100% TX level environmental
testing per MIL-PRF-19500/507A (Par. 4.3). For ordering these options, use the
following suffix:
H1 – Submodule Screening
H2 – Submodule and Module Screening
H3 – Submodule and Module Screening
& Module Group B & C lot testing

FEATURES APPLICATIONS / BENEFITS
• Designed for Military (PHP Series) and Commercial
(PIP Series)
• Working rms voltages (VWM(RMS)) available in
ranges from 8.4 to 500 Volts
• For military applications, the PHP module sub-
assemblies are packaged in a hermetically sealed
glass-to-metal package and are also optionally
screened in accordance with MIL-PRF-19500/507.
• The PHP series modules can also have design
consistency with the following military controlling
specifications:
• MIL-STD-1399, Section 300
• MIL-STD-704
• MIL-E-16400
• 7,500 and 15,000 Watts Peak Pulse Power
dissipation (see Figure 1)
• Protection from switching transients and induced RF
• Protection from ESD, and EFT per IEC 61000-4-2
and IEC 61000-4-4
• Secondary lightning protection per IEC61000-4-5
with 42 Ohms source impedance up to Class 5**
• Secondary lightning protection per IEC61000-4-5
with 12 Ohms source impedance up to Class 4**
• Secondary lightning protection per IEC61000-4-5
with 2 Ohms source impedance up to Class 4**
** Example Class levels are for lower voltage
types with higher Peak Pulse Current ratings
