ESD ‘protectifiers’

27 February 2019 Circuit & System Protection

With the SE1J, Diotec has added an ESD protected diode to its portfolio of standard SMD rectifiers – a new member of the Protectifiers family.

In today’s consumer and automotive electronics, the role of ESD protection is imperative for ensuring a system’s robustness under harsh transient conditions at system level. The SE1J comes in a flat SOD-123 package and features a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 600 V with 1 A of average forward current rating. It ensures robust ESD immunity up to ±25 kV as specified for air discharge in compliance with the IEC 61000-4-2 industry standard.

This device is well suited for use in applications like 50/60 Hz mains protection, power supplies, polarity protection and many more.
