The STMicroelectronics BZW50-68 is a robust bidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode engineered to provide high overvoltage protection. Its key feature is the clamping action, which instantly responds to transient overvoltages, safeguarding voltage-sensitive devices like MOS Technology and low-voltage ICs. With a peak pulse power dissipation of 5000W (10/1000 µs) and a stand-off voltage range from 10V to 180V, this diode is ideal for applications requiring reliable surge protection. It is UL497B certified and available in ECOPACK packages for environmental compliance.
