Product Overview

SM712 is a product specifically designed for RS-485 interface The designed high‑performance transient voltage suppression (TVS) diode array features an asymmetrical protection architecture (+12 V to −7 V), effectively safeguarding against transient voltage threats such as electrostatic discharge (ESD), electrical fast transients (EFT), and lightning strikes. Its integrated design and low‑clamping voltage characteristics significantly enhance device reliability, making it well suited for demanding industrial and telecommunications environments.


Key Features

  • High-Power Transient Protection

    • 400 W peak pulse power (8/20 μs waveform), supports up to 17A pulse current , compliant with IEC 61000-4-2/4/5 standards (ESD: 15 kV air discharge / 8 kV contact discharge; EFT: 40 A; lightning surge: 12 A).

  • Integrated Design

    • Single-package integration Two pairs of 12V and 7V TVS diodes , replacing four discrete components and reducing PCB layout complexity and voltage overshoot.

  • Low capacitance and low clamping voltage

    • The junction capacitance is as low as 45pF (Maximum clamping voltage under reverse operating voltage) 26V (17A pulse), protecting sensitive circuits from high-voltage surges.

  • Compact packaging

    • SOT-23 Encapsulated, designed to accommodate high-density circuit boards, and compatible with 260°C high-temperature soldering processes, compliant with halogen-free environmental standards.
