clamping voltage |
0.02 sec. |
clamping voltageThe voltage at which a surge suppressor performs its suppression tasks such as diverting the power line to ground or absorbing the excessive energy. For 120-volt AC power, the clamping voltage is around 135 volts. For 5 volt DC systems, the clamping voltage is typically 7.5 volts. How to thank TFD for its existence?

| It features very low clamping voltage, no device degradation and large cross-sectional area junctions for conducting high transient currents. While technologies such as polymers, varistors and BAV99s may allow for the successful completion of the HDMI CTS, only a low capacitance and low clamping voltage TVS device provides adequate safeguard against latch-up and EOS/ESD threats," said Rob Frizzell, Director of HDMI Product Marketing at Silicon Image. The ESD9X series of diodes feature lower clamping voltage and lower leakage than multi-layer varistors of comparable size. |
