Littelfuse, Inc. 20KA TVS in reflow Axial package AK20-076C-Y

The AK20-Y series of high power TVS diode is specially designed for meeting severe surge test environment of both AC and DC line protection applications. It features a very fast response and ultra low clamping characteristics as compared to MOVs (Metal Oxide Varistors). It accomplishes this by virtue of the Littelfuse Foldbak™ technology, which provides a clamping voltage lower than the avalanche voltage (but above the rated working voltage); therefore, any voltage rise due to increased current conduction is maintained at a minimum magnitude, providing the best possible protection level. These AK components can be connected in series and / or parallel to create a very high surge current protection solution. No wear-out nor degrade surge rating over multiple transient events as long as within surge capability Ultra high power rating Very low clamping voltage Reflow soldering capability Ultra-compact: less than a tenth the size of traditional discrete solutions Sharp breakdown voltage Low slope resistance Bidirectional Foldbak™ technology for superior clamping factor Symmetric lead width for easy soldering during assembly
