The recommended operating temperature range for the S3AB-13-F is -40°C to 125°C.
To ensure reliability, it's essential to follow the recommended derating guidelines for the device, especially in high-temperature applications. This includes reducing the voltage and current ratings accordingly.
The maximum surge current rating for the S3AB-13-F is 130A for a 10/1000μs waveform.
While the S3AB-13-F is primarily designed for transient voltage suppression, it can be used in high-frequency switching applications. However, it's essential to consider the device's capacitance and ESR characteristics to ensure it meets the specific application requirements.
When selecting a variant, consider factors such as the required standoff voltage, peak pulse current, and package type. Consult the datasheet and application notes to ensure the chosen variant meets the specific application requirements.
