STMicroelectronics 1-Element Uni-Directional TVS Diode 5000W 2-Pin R-6 BZW50-18

STMicroelectronics BZW50-18 is a 1-element uni-directional TVS diode designed for transient voltage suppression in electronic circuits. With a peak pulse power dissipation of 5000 W, it effectively protects sensitive components from voltage surges caused by electrical transients. The diode features a single diode configuration with a uni-directional direction type and is housed in a through hole R-6 package type for straightforward PCB mounting.

This TVS diode operates reliably between temperatures of -65°C and 175°C, making it suitable for use in demanding industrial, electronics manufacturing, and power management applications. It has a minimum breakdown voltage (Vbr) of 20 V and a maximum reverse stand-off voltage (Vwm) of 18 V, with a clamping voltage of 41.5 V to keep circuits safe from transient events. The device supports a test current of 1 mA and a maximum peak pulse current (Ippm) of 1446 A.

Measuring 9.1 mm in height, length, width, and diameter, this compact diode is UL Recognised to meet safety standards. It contains a single element per chip, with a pin configuration of 2 pins facilitating straightforward electrical connections. The maximum reverse leakage current is low at 5 μA, adding to its efficiency in steady-state conditions.
