CDS0T23-SM712 – BOURNS

The Bourns CDS0T23-SM712 is a transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode array designed for protecting sensitive electronic components from electrostatic discharge (ESD) and other transient voltage events. This device integrates two TVS diodes in a common anode configuration, providing bidirectional protection for two separate I/O lines. It offers a low clamping voltage and fast response time, minimizing the risk of damage to downstream circuitry. With a Voltage Rating of 24V, it is well suited for protecting 24V data lines. The CDS0T23-SM712 features a peak pulse current rating of 2A per line (8/20μs waveform). Housed in a small SOT-23 package, it is ideal for space-constrained applications. Its operating temperature range spans from –55°C to 150°C, ensuring reliable performance in harsh environments. This part is commonly used in automotive electronics, industrial control systems, and communication equipment where robust ESD protection is critical. Its low capacitance minimizes signal distortion, making it suitable for high-speed data interfaces.
