Cooper Electronic Technologies Expands Its SurgX Voltage Suppressor Family with New 4-line Device.Business Editors ST. LOUIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 9, 2000 Cooper Electronic Technologies announced today the addition of a new 4-line device to its popular SurgX(R) family of ESD (1) (Electronic Software Distribution) Distributing new software and upgrades via the network rather than individual installations on each machine. See ESL. protection products. This new device (part number 41206 ESDA ESDA exploratory spatial data analysis ESDA Electrostatic Discharge Association ESDA Emergency Services & Disaster Agency (Civil Defense) ESDA Electrostatic Detection Apparatus ) has identical electrical characteristics as the SurgX 0805 Chip. The package outline is the same array configuration made popular by the chip resistor resistor, two-terminal electric circuit component that offers opposition to an electric current. Resistors are normally designed and operated so that, with varying levels of current, variations of their resistance values are negligible (see resistance). and capacitor industry. The only real difference between these two voltage suppressors is that the 41206 ESDA package is a 4-line element array that only takes up about 50% more board space than the 0805 chip, thus giving up less board real estate per line of protection while still providing the lowest capacitance. All SurgX devices utilize an advanced voltage-variable polymer technology and proven metal deposition techniques to create bi-directional transient voltage suppressors A transient voltage suppressor or TVS is a general classification of an array of devices that are designed to react to sudden or momentary overvoltage conditions. One such common device used for this purpose is known as the transient voltage suppression diode that is simply that have the lowest capacitance and lowest leakage current available in the industry today. Specifically designed to protect sensitive electronic circuits from the threat of ESD (electrostatic discharge (hardware, testing) Electrostatic Discharge - (ESD) One kind of test that hardware usually has to pass to prove it is suitable for sale and use. The hardware must still work after is has been subjected to some level of electrostatic discharge. ), SurgX products react instantaneously to the transient voltage and effectively clamp it below 60V, meaning less voltage stress during the clamp period and greater IC protection. In the off-state, SurgX is virtually invisible to the circuit, thus making it transparent to high-speed digital circuits without signal disruption or distortion. SurgX devices are ideal for ESD protection in applications such as mobile communications, computers, data processing data processing or information processing, operations (e.g., handling, merging, sorting, and computing) performed upon data in accordance with strictly defined procedures, such as recording and summarizing the financial transactions of a , test equipment, and many other electronic applications. The SurgX 41206 Four-Element Array is available in bulk packaging or tape-and-reel for easy pick-and-place utilization. Pricing starts at $0.32 in quantities of 50K units.

Cooper Electronic Technologies is a global manufacturer of electronic circuit protection, power conversion and filtering components. Brand names include Bussmann electronic fuses, Coiltronics power magnetics, SurgX ESD suppression components, Polytron polymer resettable fuses, and PowerStor aerogel aerogel, any of a group of extremely light and porous solid materials; the lightest is less than four times as dense as dry air. Aerogels are produced from certain gels (see colloid) by heating the gel under pressure, which causes the liquid in the gel to become capacitors. |
