The XT Series is a 2-terminal bi-directional, voltage triggered switch designed for Xenon HID 'hot re-strike' circuits such as those found in automobiles. Switching voltages for the devices are fixed depending on the part number selected.
The gas plasma trigger technology offers very fast switching speeds, resulting in significantly better di/dt values when compared to silicon based SIDAC devices. Due to the high switching voltage of the devices, step-up transformer sizes and specifications can be reduced, saving cost, size, and weight.
RoHS compliant
Two-terminal configuration
Very fast typical switching speed of 10 ns and high di/dt make these gas discharge arrestors ideal for use with ignition transformers
Tape and reel to EIA 481-1
Switching performance is virtually unaffected by changes in ambient temperature
