Condition

Where Large Transient Spikes Occur

Capacitive Load

description

The TL7726 consists of six identical clamping circuits that monitor an input voltage with respect to a reference

impedance to ground, drawing current of less than 10

These characteristics make the TL7726 ideal as protection devices for CMOS semiconductor devices in

environments where there are large positive or negative transients to protect analog-to-digital converters in

automotive or industrial systems. The use of clamping circuits provides a safeguard against potential latch-up.

The TL7726C is characterized for operation over the temperature range of 0

°C to 70°C. The TL7726I is

characterized for operation over the temperature range of – 40

°C to 85°C. The TL7726Q is characterized for

operation over the temperature range of – 40

°C to 125°C.
