when the current reaches the maximum value in one direction only, that is when
Pin 1 is positive in voltage with respect to Pin 2. No current limiting exists in the oppo-
site polarity, and the TBU
®
protector appears as resistive in nature. The reverse current
should not exceed the maximum trigger current level of the TBU
®
device. An external
diode may be used to prevent reverse current in DC biased applications.
The TBU
®
protector blocks surges and provides an effective barrier behind which sensi-
tive electronics will not be exposed to large voltages or currents during surge events.
After the surge, the TBU
®
device resets when the voltage across the TBU
®
device falls
to the V
reset
level. The TBU
®
device will automatically reset on lines which have no DC
bias or have DC bias below V
reset
(such as unpowered signal lines).
The TBU
®
device is provided in a surface mount DFN package and meets industry
standard requirements such as RoHS and Pb Free solder reflow profiles.

TBU-KE Series - TBU
®
High-Speed Protectors
Reference Application
The TBU
®
device can be used to protect against excessive
voltage surges in DC biased equipment, as shown in the figure
below. Diode D1 prevents reverse voltage surges from damaging
the equipment, and the TBU
®
protector prevents any positive
surges from causing damage. An overvoltage protection device,
such as an MOV, may be used to provide additional overvoltage
protection if the surge voltage is likely to be above the maximum
rating of the TBU
®
device. D1 reverse voltage rating should be
greater than that of the OVP device at the maximum surge cur-
rent level. Typically, a 1N4007 is a suitable choice. D2 should be
chosen to be above the normal working voltage of the protected
device, but below its absolute maximum rating.
Basic TBU Operation
The TBU
®
device is a silicon-based, solid-state, resettable
device which is placed in series with a signal path. The TBU
®
device operates in approximately 1 µs - once line current
exceeds the TBU
®
device’s trigger current I
trigger
. When oper-
ated, the TBU
®
device restricts line current to less than 1 mA
typically. When operated, the TBU
®
device will block all system
voltages and any other voltages including the surge up to rated
limits.
After the surge, the TBU
®
device resets when the voltage
across the TBU
®
device falls to the V
reset
level. The TBU
®
device will automatically reset on lines which have no DC bias
or have DC bias below V
reset
(such as unpowered signal lines).
If the line has a normal DC bias above V
reset
, the voltage
across the TBU
®
device may not fall below V
reset
after the
surge. In such cases, special care needs to be taken to ensure
that the TBU
®
device will reset, otherwise an automatic or
manual power down will be required. Bourns application
engineers can provide further assistance.

Recommended Pad Layout
TBU
®
High-Speed Protectors have a 100 % matte-tin termination
finish. For improved thermal dissipation, the recommended layout
uses PCB copper areas which extend beyond the exposed solder
pad. The exposed solder pads should be defined by a solder mask
which matches the pad layout of the TBU
®
device in size and spac-
ing. It is recommended that they should be the same dimension as
the TBU
®
pads but if smaller solder pads are used, they should be
centered on the TBU
®
package terminal pads and not more than
0.10-0.12 mm (0.004-0.005 in.) smaller in overall width or length.
Solder pad areas should not be larger than the TBU
®
pad sizes
to ensure adequate clearance is maintained. The recommended

stencil thickness is 0.10-0.12 mm (0.004-0.005 in.) with a stencil
opening size 0.025 mm (0.0010 in.) less than the solder pad
size. Extended copper areas beyond the solder pad significantly
improve the junction to ambient thermal resistance, resulting in
operation at lower junction temperatures with a corresponding
benefit of reliability. All pads should soldered to the PCB, includ-
ing pads marked as NC or NU but no electrical connection should
be made to these pads. For minimum parasitic capacitance, it is
recommended that signal, ground or power signals are not routed
beneath any pad.
