MPT-18C [Microchip]

This Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) series for 1N6356 thru 1N6372 are JEDEC registered selections for both unidirectional and bidirectional devices. The 1N6356 thru 1N6364 are unidirectional and the 1N6365 thru 1N6372 are bi-directional where they all provide a very low specified clamping factor for minimal clamping voltages (VC) above their respective breakdown voltages (VBR) as specified herein. They are most often used in protecting sensitive components from inductive switching transients or induced secondary lightning effects as found in lower surge levels of IEC61000-4-5 . They are also very successful in protecting airborne avionics and electrical systems. Since their response time is virtually instantaneous, they can also protect from ESD and EFT per IEC61000-4-2 and IEC61000-4-4.

• Unidirectional and bidirectional TVS series in axial package for thru-hole mounting
• Suppresses transients up to 1500 watss @ 10/1000 µs
