NTE4903 thru NTE4999 Surge Clamping, Transient Overvoltage Suppressor Bidirectional Description: The NTE4900 series of silicon Transient Suppressors designed to protect voltage sensitive compo- nents from high energy voltage transients. Transient over voltage suppressor devices have become very important as a consequence of their high surge capability, extremely fast response time, and low incremental surge resistance (Rs). Application: The NTE4900 series has a peak pulse power rating of 1500 watts for one millisecond. Can protect integrated circuits, hybrids, CMOS, MOS, and other voltage sensitive components in a broad range of applications such as telecommunications, power supplies, computers, automotive, industrial and medical equipment. Absolute Maximum Ratings Peak Pulse Power Dissipation (T = +25C) 1500W A t (0 volts to Bv Min) < 5 x 109 sec clamping Operating and Storage Temperature . 65C to +175 C Forward Surge Rating 200 Amps, 1/20 Second at +25 C Steady State Power Dissipation 5.0 W T1 = +25 C Note 1. NTE4908 and NTE4909 are discontinued devices and no longer available.
