Littelfuse introduces pioneering Protection Thyristor within DO-214AB Package, boasting a capacity for handling 2 kA surges in the electronics industry.
In the realm of industrial, automotive, and renewable energy sectors, Littelfuse's Pxxx0S3H SIDACtor Protection Thyristor Series is making waves as a game-changer in surge protection. This innovative series is designed to offer high-performance surge protection for a variety of applications, from industrial power supplies to solar inverters and UPS/AC distribution systems.
The Pxxx0S3H Series stands out with its industry-first 2 kA surge capability, which is packed into a compact DO-214AB (SMC) package. This robust defense against severe transient overvoltages not only ensures the safety of the system but also enables the miniaturization of designs, a trend that is increasingly important in today's technology-driven world.
One of the key benefits of the Pxxx0S3H Series is its exceptional surge immunity. It meets or exceeds IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 surge protection standards, making it an ideal choice for high-reliability power and energy systems in demanding environments.
The space-saving design of the Pxxx0S3H Series is another significant advantage. By supporting the trend toward more functionality in smaller enclosures, it helps engineers reduce device size without compromising safety or durability.
In terms of longevity, the Pxxx0S3H Series outperforms traditional surge protection devices such as metal oxide varistors (MOVs) or gas discharge tubes (GDTs), which degrade over time. This superior durability ensures that the Pxxx0S3H Series remains effective and reliable over extended periods.
The Pxxx0S3H Series is versatile, suitable for both AC and DC power lines. This versatility makes it a valuable asset in various industrial and automotive applications requiring transient voltage suppression.
Compliance with strict regulatory and industry safety standards is another strength of the Pxxx0S3H Series. It ensures dependable protection for sensitive electronics in critical infrastructure applications.
The Pxxx0S3H Series is not limited to traditional industrial applications. It is also designed for energy storage systems, factory automation power supplies, uninterruptible power supply (UPS) and high-current AC distribution, IoT-connected power devices, solar DC/AC inverter protection, and even automotive battery management and EV wall charging systems.
In summary, the Pxxx0S3H SIDACtor Series provides a compact, high-current, and highly reliable surge protection solution that enhances the safety and miniaturization of modern power systems in various sectors. Its improved reliability compared to legacy GDT or MOV-based devices, smaller system designs due to its compact dimensions, and compliance with IEC-61000-4-5 Level 4 standards for surge immunity make it an invaluable tool for engineers and system designers alike.
