The ICT-5 through ICT-45C series of Transient Voltage Suppressors
(TVSs) are designed for the protection of integrated circuits that
require very low Clamping Voltages (V
C
) during a transient threat.
Due to their very fast response time, protection level and high Peak
Pulse Power (P
PP
) capability, they are extremely effective in
providing protection against line transients generated by: voltage
reversals, capacitive or inductive load switching, electromechanical
switching, electrostatic discharge and electromagnetic coupling.

APPLICATIONS / BENEFITS
•
These TVSs are designed for the protection
of integrated circuits. Characterized by a
very low clamping voltage together with a
low standoff voltage, they afford a high
degree of protection to: TTL, ECL, DTL,
MOS, CMOS, VMOS, HMOS, NMOS and
static memory circuits.
This series of TVS devices is designed to protect
Bipolar, MOS and Schottky improved integrated
circuits.
Transient protection for CMOS, MOS, Bipolar, ICS
(TTL, ECL, DTL, RTL and linear functions)
5.0 to 45 volts
Low clamping ratio
RoHS Compliant devices available by adding “e3”
suffix

C suffix indicates Bidirectional.
NOTE 1: TVSs are normally selected according to the reverse “Stand Off Voltage” V
WM
which should be equal to
or greater than the dc or repetitive peak operation voltage level.
* The minimum breakdown voltage as shown takes into consideration the +/-1 volt tolerance normally specified for power supply regulation on
most integrated circuit manufacturers data sheets. Similar devices are available with reduced clamping voltages where tighter regulated
power supply voltages are employed.
