ESDEMC Technology will soon be releasing its new TVS oscilloscope protectors, which improve upon the existing TVS-10G model. With an even more compact design, the new TVS-10G+ eliminates rising edge distortion on signals below the clamping voltage. This along with faster clamping allows for both an improvement in signal integrity and oscilloscope protection. The new TVS-15G, also using the updated enclosure, now extends the functional bandwidth to 15GHz.
Below is a table comparing the specs of the old TVS-10G to new TVS-10G+ and TVS-15G.
TVS-10G | TVS-10G+ | TVS-15G | |
V breakdown Min (V) | 6.5 | 7.5 | 6.2 |
V breakdown Max (V) | 7.3 | 11 | 7.5 |
TLP Dynamic Resistance 4 – 16A (Ohm) | 1 | 0.45 | 1.2 |
IEC ESD level – CD (kV) | 20 | 10 | 12 |
IEC ESD level – AD (kV) | 20 | 15 | 18 |
Ipp Surge 8/20us (A) | 3.6 | 4.5 | 2.0 |
Waveform distortion before breakdown | Yes | No | Yes |
