scope:
This Recommendation in the surge protective component application guide series covers voltage limiting components, having one or two silicon PN junctions. These surge protective components (SPCs) are clamping type overvoltage protectors [b-ITU-T K.96]. Components covered in this Recommendation use the following PN junction technologies: Zener breakdown, avalanche breakdown, fold-back, punch-through and rectification. Guidance is given on construction, characteristics, ratings and application examples.
