1N5908
1500 Watt Mosorbt Zener
Transient Voltage Suppressors
Unidirectional*
Mosorb devices are designed to protect voltage sensitive
components from high voltage, high−energy transients. They have
excellent clamping capability, high surge capability, low zener
impedance and fast response time. These devices are
ON Semiconductor’s exclusive, cost-effective, highly reliable
Surmetict axial leaded package and are ideally-suited for use in
communication systems, numerical controls, process controls,
medical equipment, business machines, power supplies and many
other industrial/consumer applications, to protect CMOS, MOS and
Bipolar integrated circuits.
