SH Gas Discharge Tubes

Littelfuse SH Gas Discharge Tubes provide high levels of protection against fast-rising transients caused by lightning disturbances. The SH series has a surge rating of 5kA, 8/20μs, and comes in a Squared Surface Mount package. This streamlines the pick and place on PCB processes. This GDT series is ideal for broadband equipment applications. The low off-state capacitance is compatible with high bandwidth applications, and this capacitance loading value does not vary if the voltage across the GDT changes. Littelfuse SH tubes are ideal for the protection of electrical, multimedia, and communication equipment against over-voltage transients in surface mount assembly applications.
