Additional Details
The UPR5/TR7 is a surface-mount device packaged in a small outline package (SOP). It features a peak pulse power of typically 400W for a 10/1000µs pulse. Its low clamping voltage ensures that the protected circuit sees a minimal overvoltage during a transient event. The fast response time allows the UPR5/TR7 to quickly clamp transient voltages, preventing damage to sensitive components. Its robust construction and high surge current capability ensure reliable performance in harsh environments. It is designed to meet industry standards for transient voltage protection. Specific electrical characteristics include a reverse standoff voltage, breakdown voltage, and clamping voltage, all carefully tailored for optimal protection performance. The device is RoHS compliant.
