The TISP61CAP3 is a programmable
overvoltage protector designed to protect SLIC
applications against lightning and transients
induced by ac power lines. Normally the V
(Gate) terminal will be connected to the negative
supply rail of the SLIC
When a negative transient exceeds the negative
supply rail voltage of the SLIC it will cause the
thyristor to crowbar, shunting the surge to
ground. The high crowbar holding current
prevents dc latchup as the transient subsides.
Positive transients are clipped by diode action.

NOTES: 1. Above 70°C, derate linearly to zero at 150°C case temperature
2. This value applies when the initial case temperature is at (or below) 70°C. The surge may be repeated after the device has
returned to thermal equilibrium.
3. Most PTT’s quote an unloaded voltage waveform. In operation the TISP essentially shorts the generator output. The resulting
loaded current waveform is specified.

MECHANICAL DATA
P008
plastic dual-in-line package
This dual-in-line package consists of a circuit mounted on a lead frame and encapsulated within a plastic
compound. The compound will withstand soldering temperature with no deformation, and circuit performance
characteristics will remain stable when operated in high humidity conditions The package is intended for
insertion in mounting-hole rows on 7,62 (0.300) centers. Once the leads are compressed and inserted,
sufficient tension is provided to secure the package in the board during soldering. Leads require no
additional cleaning or processing when used in soldered assembly.
