DESCRIPTION APPEARANCE
These Microsemi 30 kW Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVSs)
are designed for applications requiring protection of voltage-
sensitive electronic devices that may be damaged by harsh or
severe voltage transients including lightning per IEC61000-4-5
and class levels with various source impedances described
herein. This series is available in 10 to 400 volt Standoff
Voltages (VWM) in both unidirectional and bi-directional with either
5% or 10% tolerances of the Breakdown Voltage (VBR).
Microsemi also offers numerous other TVS products to meet
higher or lower power demands and special applications.
IMPORTANT: For the most current data, consult MICROSEMI’s website: http://www.microsemi.com
FEATURES APPLIC ATIONS / BENEFITS
• Available in both Unidirectional and Bidirectional
construction (Bidirectional with C or CA suffix)
• Selections for 10 to 400 volt Standoff Voltages VWM
• Suppresses transients up to 30 kW @ 10/1000 µs and 200
kW @ 8/20 µs (see Figure 1)
• Fast response
• Optional 100% screening for avionics grade is available
by adding MA prefix to part number for added 100%
temperature cycle -55oC to +125oC (10X) as well as surge
(3X) and 24 hours HTRB with post test VZ & IR (in the
operating direction for unidirectional or both directions for
bidirectional)
• Options for screening in accordance with MIL-PRF-19500
for JAN, JANTX, and JANTXV are available by adding MQ,
MX, or MV prefixes respectively to part numbers.
• Moisture classification is Level 1 with no dry pack required
per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B

MAXIMUM RAT ING S MECHANICAL AND PACKAGING
• Peak Pulse Power dissipation at 25ºC: 30,000 watts at
10/1000 μs (also see Figures 1 and 2)
• Impulse repetition rate (duty factor): 0.05%
• t
clamping (0 volts to V(BR) min.): < 100 ps theoretical for
unidirectional and < 5 ns for bidirectional
• Operating & Storage temperature: -65ºC to +150ºC
• Thermal resistance: 0.5ºC/W junction to case, or 50ºC/W
junction to ambient when mounted on FR4 PC board with
recommended mounting pad with 1 oz Cu (see last page)
• Steady-State Power dissipation: 250 watts at Tc = 25oC,
or 2.5 watts at TA = 25ºC when mounted on FR4 PC
board as described for thermal resistance above
• Forward Surge: 1500 Amps (theoretical) at 8.3 ms half-
sine wave for unidirectional devices only
• Solder temperatures: 260 ºC for 10 s (maximum)
• CASE: Void-free transfer molded thermosetting
epoxy body meeting UL94V-0
• FINISH: Tin-Lead or RoHS Compliant annealed
matte-Tin plating readily solderable per MIL-
STD-750, method 2026
• MARKING: Body marked with part number
• POLARITY: For unidirectional devices, the
cathode is on the metal backside (package
bottom)
• WEIGHT: 1.7-2.0 grams (approximate)
• TAPE & REEL option: Standard per EIA-296
for axial package (add “TR” suffix to part
number)
• See package dimension on last page
