712 Diode PSM712-ES Bidirectional TVS diode PSM712-ES

The PSM712-ES is an asymmetrical bidirectional transient voltage suppression (TVS) diode manufactured by ElecSuper for high-speed data line protection and RS-485 communication port safeguarding. Housed in a compact surface-mount SOT-23 molded plastic package, this discrete dual-channel component integrates low-capacitance steering diodes to shield sensitive electronics from severe electrostatic discharge. It operates with dual reverse stand-off voltages of 7V and 12V while exhibiting a maximum peak pulse current handling capability of 17A. Engineered for ultra-fast response times and robust transient protection, this reliable device handles a peak pulse power dissipation up to 400W across an operating temperature range from minus 40 to plus 125 degrees Celsius.
