The ALS8W33A TVS ROHS is a diode manufactured by Lite-On. It is an uni-directional device designed to protect electronic equipment against electrostatic discharge (ESD). The diode has 53.3V, 36.7V, and 33V breakdown voltages and is designed to safely survive currents up to 6A. The diode is constructed using two low capacitance arrays and a low-loss Zener diode making it suitable for both high ESD events and power consumption during ESD protection. The diode can be used in a variety of applications including personal computer, telephone systems, audio systems, medical devices, and instrumentation. It is also compliant with the RoHS directive.
