MPLAD18KP20A [Microchip]

These high-power, 18 kW-rated transient voltage suppressors in a surface mount package are provided with design features to minimize thermal resistance and cumulative heating. Typical applications include lightning and automotive load dump protection. They are particularly effective at meeting the multi-stroke lightning standard RTCA DO-160, section 22 for aircraft design. This efficient low-profile package design is offered in standoff voltage selections (VWM) of 7 Volts to 200 Volts in either unidirectional or bidirectional construction.

Available in both unidirectional and bidirectional construction (bidirectional with CA suffix)
