Bourns 2011 Fast FLAT® GDT Surge Arrestors
Bourns 2011 Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) Surge Arrestors with FLAT® technology offer 2-electrodes in an innovative flat-package design. Bourns’ FLAT technology delivers a low-profile GDT solution for high-density and height-restricted PCB applications. These surge arrestors are designed as a surface mount device and offer a large flat surface, making the series suitable for high-speed pick and place using a vacuum head pickup.
Bourns 2011 GDTs are fast acting and designed for use with a Bourns® TBU® High-Speed Protector (HSP). The components limit a high rate of rise voltage transients to levels below the TBU device’s maximum voltage impulse rating (Vimp). The 2011 GDTs, along with the TBU HSP, are an ideal protection solution for RS-485 applications.
