Overview

The GTCS23-750M-R01-2 is a 2-pole surface mount Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) designed to protect sensitive equipment from transient surge voltages. It features a nominal DC spark-over voltage of 75V and can handle impulse discharge currents up to 1000A (1kA).

Why Choose This Part

This GDT offers extremely low capacitance and insertion loss, ensuring signal integrity in high-speed data applications. Its crowbar-style protection provides a low arc voltage, effectively shunting high-energy transients to ground while maintaining a compact 2-SMD footprint.

Applications

Telecommunications Equipment
Protecting telephone lines and modems from lightning strikes and power induction.
Industrial Communication
Safeguarding RS-485, RS-232, and CAN bus interfaces in harsh electrical environments.
Power Supplies
Providing secondary surge protection on low-voltage DC input rails.
CATV and Broadband
Low capacitance makes it suitable for high-frequency signal protection without significant signal loss.
