ZHCSHJ8C December 2017 – November 2019 TVS0500
PRODUCTION DATA.
Unlike traditional diodes the TVS0500 has very little derating of max power dissipation and ensures robust performance up to 125°C, shown in Figure 8. Traditional TVS diodes lose up to 50% of their current carrying capability when at high temperatures, so a surge pulse above 85°C ambient can cause failures that are not seen at room temperature. The TVS0500 prevents this and ensures that you will see the same level of protection regardless of temperature.
