Questions: Transients
Question: Transients in power supply networks usually have a ringing waveform. This is due to:
Review: Transmission line behaviour, Transmission lines and ringing
Question: A fast transient burst with risetimes of the order of a few nanoseconds capable of disrupting processor-based equipment is produced by:
Review: Transient susceptibility
You want to surge-protect a 24V DC circuit with a maximum voltage capability of 50V from a 500V IEC 61000-4-5 pulse with a source impedance of 2 ohms. Being space-limited, you have a choice of a SMBJ33 zener transient suppressor or a B72520V300K62 33V 1206 MOV transient suppressor, or perhaps both. What do you choose?
