DESCRIPTION
The SM712 transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode is designed for asymmetrical (12V to -7V)
protection in multi-point data transmission standard RS-485 applications. The SM712 may be used to
protect devices from transient voltages resulting from electrostatic discharge (ESD), electrical fast
transients (FET), and lightning.
The SM712 features 400 Watts (tp=8/20μs) of power handling capability to accommodate the higher
transient voltage levels which may be expected in extended common mode applications. This provides
higher equipment reliability and eliminates the guess work” required when using zener diodes that are
not rated to handle such transient conditions.
Low leakage current
Low clamping voltage
Meets MSL 1 Requirements
Marking: 712 or C72
Networks
The integrated design aids in reducing voltage over-shoot associated with trace inductance. The low
clamping voltage of the SM712 minimizes the stress on the protected transceiver. The SOT-23 package
allows flexibility in the design of “crowed” circuit boards.
