SMA ZenBlock™; zener
with integrated blocking diode
FEATURES
•
Zener and 600 V/250 ns blocking diode in one package
•
Protects the MOSFET in power IC controllers such as
STARPlug™
(1)
, TOPSwitch™
(2)
and VIPer™
(3)
•
High surge capability
•
Supports valley switching
•
Glass passivated junctions
•
Excellent clamping capability and stability
•
Supplied in 12 mm embossed tape.
DESCRIPTION
The SMA ZenBlock™ is designed to protect the MOSFET
in flyback converters against over-voltages caused by the
transformer leakage inductance. The SMA ZenBlock™
combines a zener/TVS with a fast soft-recovery diode in
one package, and can be used to replace double diode,
RC or RCD snubbers.
The BZG142 consists of a glass passivated chip in a
DO-214AC surface mount package.
The well-defined void-free case is of a transfer-moulded
thermo-setting plastic. The small rectangular package has
two J bent leads.
