STMicroelectronics BZW06-376B Transil™ Diode

The BZW06-376B from STMicroelectronics is a robust Transil™ diode designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients induced by lightning and other transient voltage events. This high-performance device is part of ST's Transil diode series, which are bidirectional surge suppressors specifically constructed to protect voltage-sensitive components from destruction or degradation.

With a stand-off voltage of 376V, the BZW06-376B can safely absorb repetitive ESD strikes at the maximum level specified in the IEC 61000-4-2 international standard without performance degradation. Additionally, its peak pulse power dissipation of 600W (10/1000μs surge) ensures that your electronics are safeguarded from the most severe surges, including those caused by indirect lightning strikes.

The BZW06-376B comes in a DO-15 package, which is known for its compact size and ease of integration into a wide range of applications. Its axial-lead allows for simple through-hole mounting, making it a versatile choice for various circuit board designs. The device's low clamping factor and fast response time make it an ideal solution for protecting voltage-sensitive components such as integrated circuits, MOSFETs, and other semiconductors.

Key features of the BZW06-376B include:

• Peak pulse power: 600 W (10/1000μs)
• Stand-off voltage: 376 V
• Breakdown voltage range: 418V to 461V
• Low clamping factor
