Description

The STMicroelectronics BZW50-68 is a single uni-directional TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) diode designed for high-power applications. It features a peak pulse power of up to 5 kW at 10/1000 μs, with an operating temperature range of -40°C to 175°C. The device has a stand-off voltage range from 12V to 180V and is available in both unidirectional and bidirectional types. The BZW50-68 is packaged in a plugin format with matte tin plating on the leads. Its high power capability at maximum operating temperature (Tjmax) allows for up to 3700W of pulse current at 10/1000 μs. This device is suitable for applications requiring high surge protection and energy absorption, such as automotive, industrial, and consumer electronics.
