GDT surge protectors suit broadband apps

The 2054 series three-electrode SMT gas discharge tube (GDT) surge-protection devices target telecommunications, commercial, and industrial applications. The devices have a 5 x 7.2-mm footprint, are available in voltages from 230 to 470 V, and feature RoHS-compliant versions.

The surge-protection devices help prevent damage from transient disturbances by creating a short-to-ground circuit during conduction. When an electrical surge exceeds the defined breakdown voltage level of the GDT, the device becomes ionized and rapid conduction takes place. When the surge passes and the system voltage returns to normal levels, the GDT returns to its high-impedance off-state. (From $0.30 to $0.40 ea/2,700 — available now.)
