مدى دقتها
Exact arithmetic on a straight clamp line through the two datasheet maxima, fed from the IEC 61000-4-5 generator taken as its open-circuit voltage behind its source resistance.

A real clamp curve is not a straight line, and a real part usually sits below its datasheet maxima: its clamp is lower and its current slightly higher than shown. The maximum breakdown voltage sets most of the clamp at low surge currents, and the derating read off the part's own curve sets the current check. In ESD mode the clamp is an estimate only.

Circuit

المبدأ

A TVS diode stays off below its breakdown voltage. Past it, it conducts and holds the line near its clamping voltage while the surge current flows through it to ground. This page models the surge generator as its open-circuit voltage behind its source resistance (IEC 61000-4-5), and the TVS as a straight clamp line through its two datasheet maxima. From them it finds the surge current and the voltage left at the protected pin, and checks the pin against its absolute maximum, the current against the TVS's derated pulse rating, and the stand-off against the line voltage.

Clamp line through the datasheet maxima
V=VBR,max+I RdynRdyn=VC−VBR,maxIPPV = V_{BR,max} + I\, R_{dyn} \qquad R_{dyn} = \frac{V_C - V_{BR,max}}{I_{PP}}
A straight line through VBR,max at about zero current and VC max at IPP, a design choice. A line through VBR,min would understate the clamp below IPP. Above IPP the line is extrapolated.
Surge current and the clamp at the pin
I=max⁡(0,  Vs−VBR,maxRsrc+Rser+Rdyn)VC′=VBR,max+I RdynI = \max\left(0,\; \frac{V_s - V_{BR,max}}{R_{src} + R_{ser} + R_{dyn}}\right) \qquad V_C' = V_{BR,max} + I\, R_{dyn}
The generator is Vs behind Rsrc: 2 Ω power line to line, 12 Ω power line to ground, 42 Ω all other lines (IEC 61000-4-5, as summarised in ST AN4275). With I = 0 the TVS does not conduct, and VC' = Vs.
Pulse rating at temperature
IPP(TA)=kT IPPIkT IPP≤0.8I_{PP}(T_A) = k_T\, I_{PP} \qquad \frac{I}{k_T\, I_{PP}} \leq 0.8
kT is read off the part's peak-pulse derating curve, which derates PPP and IPP together against the initial junction temperature. The page takes TA as that temperature, as datasheets of this kind state (TJ initial = TA). 0.8 is this page's design margin.
ESD contact-discharge current
Ipeak=3.75  A/kV×VESDI30=2  A/kV×VESDI_{peak} = 3.75\; \t{A/kV} \times V_{ESD} \qquad I_{30} = 2\; \t{A/kV} \times V_{ESD}
IEC 61000-4-2: the contact-discharge current at its first peak and at 30 ns. VC' = VBR,max + Ipeak·Rdyn is an estimate only, because the clamp line comes from a microsecond pulse.

تفاصيل إضافية

Stand-off first

In normal use the TVS must stay off. Its stand-off voltage VRWM, where the datasheet specifies the leakage IR, sits above the highest steady line voltage. 1.1 × Vline is this page's design margin.

Then the clamp and the current

On a low-voltage line there is little room between VBR,max and the pin's absolute maximum. The source resistance sets the current: 42 Ω on a signal line passes far less than 2 Ω across a power line. Added series resistance, a resistor or a PTC, lowers both the current and the clamp. It must be rated for the pulse.

The rating pulse

A datasheet states IPP on one pulse shape, often 10/1000 µs. The IEC 61000-4-5 surge is far shorter, and the part's pulse-rating curve allows a higher peak on a shorter pulse, so checking it against the 10/1000 µs rating is conservative.

Not modelled

The clamp's real curve between the two datasheet points, the change of VBR with temperature (the datasheet's temperature coefficient, where it gives one), the junction heating during the pulse, repeated pulses, the line's inductance and the protected pin's own clamp structure. For ESD the page gives the IEC 61000-4-2 currents and an estimate only.

Judge the clamp at the pin against its absolute maximum, and the stand-off at the highest line voltage.
