Application Note

Description

In the field of lighting, LED lighting products are sought after by the market because they have many advantages such as energy saving, environmental protection, long life, and maintenance-free compared with traditional lighting products. But also because the anti-surge capability is greatly reduced after the linear drive power is introduced, so it is necessary to add a lightning protection circuit to the power input circuit.

Product Description

SFI has developed the SHV series of multi-functional overvoltage protectors dedicated to LED lighting. SHV provides "Small Size SMD Chip" packaging, which is currently the world's smallest SMD package with high collapse voltage and high flow capacity, high nonlinear curve, high temperature and humidity resistance, low inhibition and anti-aging Excellent performance, can withstand multiple surge current impacts, and subvert traditional plug-in packaging, SMD products improve production yield, shorten working hours and solve space height restrictions, size covers 0603 to 3220, passed UL and TUV certification and have been used by multiple LED manufacturers both domestically and internationally.
