High energy handling surface mount GDT

18 April 2007 Power Electronics / Power Management AI & Data Analytics

The 2027 SM series of surface mount gas discharge tubes from Bourns features fast response to transients, low capacitance and is available in DC breakdown voltages ranging from 90 V to 600 V with a current rating of 20 kA for 8/20 micro-second surge waveform.

The 2027 SM series GDTs are well-suited for board level protection of broadband applications such as VDSL2, VDSL, ADSL2+, ADSL and high-speed Ethernet since their capacitance is less than 1 pF. These devices have dimensions of 6 mm x 8 mm.
