The balanced three-chip TO-220 MC SIDACtor® solid state device protects telecommunication equipment in high-speed applications that are sensitive to load values and that require a lower capacitance. CO values for the MC are 40% lower than a standard AC part. This MC SIDACtor® series is used to enable equipment to meet various regulatory requirements including GR 1089, ITU K.20, K.21, and K.45, IEC 60950, UL 60950, and TIA-968 (formerly known as FCC Part 68) without the need of series resistors.Notes: All measurements are made at an ambient temperature of 25 °C. IPP applies to -40 °C through +85 °C temperature range. IPP is a repetitive surge rating and is guaranteed for the life of the product. Listed SIDACtor devices are bi-directional. All electrical parameters and surge ratings apply to forward and reverse polarities. VDRM is measured at IDRM. VS is measured at 100 V/µs. Special voltage (VS and VDRM) and holding current (IH) requirements are available upon request. Off-state capacitance is measured between Pins 1-2 and 3-2 at 1 MHz with a 2 V bias. Device is designed to meet balance requirements of GTS 8700 and GR 974.
