Special design features provide high levels of protection against fast rising transients in the 100V/μs to 1kV/μs range usually caused by lightning disturbances. Low insertion loss is perfectly suited to broadband equipment applications. The capacitance does not vary with voltage, and will not cause operational problems with ADSL2+, where capacitance variation across Tip and Ring is undesirable. These devices are extremely robust and are able to divert a 2500A pulse without destruction. For AC Power Cross of long duration, overcurrent protection is recommended. Littelfuse CG5 MS mini surge arresters are specifically designed for protection of electrical and communication equipment against over voltage transients in surface mount assembly applications. This series offers the most cutting edge protection using non-radioactive elements. ## ~~**Features**~~ - RoHS compliant and Lead-free - Ultra small devices offered in a variety of mounting lead forms - GHz working frequency - Non-Radioactive - Excellent stability on multiple pulse duty cycle - Low capacitance (<1pF) - Excellent response to • Voltage Ranges 90V to fast rising transients. 600V - Ultra Low Insertion Loss - UL Recognized - 5KA surge capability • Conforms to ITU-T K12, tested with 8/20μS IEC 61000-4-5, 2nd pulse as defined by IEC edition 61000-4-5, 2nd edition ## ~~**Applications** Lo~~ - Communication • Broadband equipment equipment • ADSL equipment, - • CATV equipment including ADSL2+ - CATV equipment - XDSL equipment - Test equipment - Satellite and CATV equipment - Data lines - Power supplies - General telecom equipment - Telecom SLIC protection © 2017 Littelfuse, Inc.

Founded in 1927 and headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, Littelfuse is a premier global manufacturer of circuit protection, power control, and sensing technologies. Widely recognized for pioneering the first small, fast-acting protective fuse, the company has grown into an industry leader whose highly reliable components are essential to modern industrial, transportation, and consumer electronics applications worldwide. At the core of the Littelfuse portfolio is an expansive and industry-leading range of circuit protection solutions. This encompasses a massive selection of traditional fuses, fuse holders, and resettable PTC thermistor fuses designed to safely interrupt overcurrent conditions. To defend against electrical overstress, Littelfuse also provides advanced transient voltage suppression (TVS) technologies, including thousands of specialized TVS diodes, TVS varistors, and gas discharge tubes (GDTs) that ensure robust defense against voltage spikes and environmental hazards. Beyond its foundational protection components, Littelfuse manufactures a diverse array of discrete semiconductors, sensors, and switching devices. Engineers rely on their high-performance thyristors, including TRIACs and SCRs, alongside power-efficient Schottky diodes and MOSFETs for demanding power control applications. Complemented by precision proximity sensors and highly reliable reed and solid-state relays, Littelfuse delivers the critical building blocks required for secure, efficient, and complete system design.
About Novapart
Novapart is a B2B electronic component broker specialising in stock shortages and cost reduction. We source hard-to-find parts and identify compliant alternatives across a catalogue of 410,000+ components from 500+ manufacturers.
