20KPA72CA Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The 20KPA72CA is a bidirectional Zener TVS diode from Littelfuse designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients. It features a reverse standoff voltage of 72V and a maximum clamping voltage of 116V at a peak pulse current of 174.1A. The device is rated for 20kW peak pulse power dissipation (10/1000μs waveform) and offers fast response time typically less than 1.0ps from 0V to breakdown voltage.

 

This TVS diode is housed in a P600 axial leaded package with through-hole mounting, suitable for high-reliability applications. It operates over a junction temperature range of -55°C to 175°C and has a steady state power dissipation of 8.0W. The part is halogen free and RoHS compliant with Pb-free E3 termination finish.

 

Typical applications include protection of I/O interfaces, VCC bus, and other vulnerable circuits in telecom, computer, industrial, and consumer electronics. The 20KPA series is designed for protection against lightning-induced transients and other voltage surge events.
