MAIN APPLICATIONS
Dedicated to dataline protection, this device provides a tripolar protection function. It ensures the
same protection capability with the same breakdown voltage in both common and differential
modes.
DESCRIPTION
The TPN3021 is a low capacitance transient
surge arrestor designed for protection of high
debit rate communication network. Its low capacitance avoids distorsion of the signal as it
has been designed for T1/E1 and Ethernet networks.

BENEFITS
Trisil technology is not subject to ageing and provides a fail safe mode in short circuit for a better
protection. They are used to help equipment to
meet main standards such as UL1950, IEC950 /
CSA C22.2 and UL1459. Theyhave UL94 V0 approved resin. SO8 package is JEDEC registered.
Trisils comply with the following standards
GR-1089 Core, ITU-T-K20/K21, VDE0433,
VDE0878, IEC61000-4-2.
