Product details
Overview
TB2300L-13-F from Diodes Incorporated is a bidirectional surface-mount thyristor surge protective device (TSPD) designed for telecom and data line transient suppression. It features 190V stand-off voltage, 30A peak pulse current (10/1000μs), 265V breakover voltage, 3.5V on-state voltage at 1A, and 40pF off-state capacitance - deployed in DSL line cards, Ethernet PHY interfaces, and analog telephone line protection.
For engineers reviewing the TB2300L-13-F datasheet, TB2300L-13-F pinout, TB2300L-13-F application, or TB2300L-13-F equivalent, key selection criteria include stand-off voltage margin vs. line operating voltage, hold current stability over temperature, surge waveform compatibility (IEC 61000-4-5, ITU-T K.21), and SMB package thermal performance under repeated clamping events.
Technical Context
This TSPD operates as a voltage-triggered bilateral switch: it remains high-impedance below 190V, triggers into low-impedance conduction above 265V, and latches until current falls below 150–800mA holding threshold. Its oxide-glass passivated junction ensures stable VBO drift of +0.1%/°C and supports repeatable operation across –40°C to +150°C junction range.
Designed for bidirectional AC line protection, it delivers symmetrical clamping without polarity marking, with 30°C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance enabling effective power dissipation during 30A transients. Off-state capacitance of 40pF minimizes signal distortion in broadband telecom applications up to 10MHz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Stand-off Voltage (VDRM) | 190V - maximum continuous AC/DC line voltage the device blocks before triggering |
| Breakover Voltage (VBO) | 265V - guaranteed trigger threshold under specified dV/dt, defining clamping onset point |
| Peak Pulse Current (IPP) | 30A @ 10/1000μs - survivable surge level per GR-1089-CORE and IEC 61000-4-5 compliance |
| On-State Voltage (VT) | 3.5V @ 1A - low clamping voltage limits energy dissipation and protects downstream ICs |
| Off-State Capacitance (CO) | 40pF @ 1MHz, 2V bias - preserves signal integrity in ADSL/VDSL and Ethernet PHY lines |
| Holding Current (IH) | 150–800mA - minimum current required to sustain conduction after triggering; determines recovery behavior |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJL) | 30°C/W - enables reliable heat transfer from junction to PCB pad under repetitive surge stress |
Pinout & Package
Package: SMB (DO-214AA), surface-mount, bidirectional, polarity-free case with matte tin-plated terminals. UL 94V-0 molded plastic body, 0.093g weight, moisture sensitivity level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode/Cathode (symmetrical) | Bidirectional conduction path | No polarity marking; either terminal serves as anode or cathode depending on instantaneous voltage polarity |
| Case / Body | Thermal and mechanical interface | Exposed copper pad area transfers heat to PCB; requires minimum 25mm² copper pour for RθJA derating |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Oxide-glass passivated junction | Ensures ±5% VBO tolerance and <0.1%/°C temperature coefficient for stable trigger timing |
| Bidirectional single-device protection | Eliminates need for back-to-back diac or dual-TSPD layout; reduces BOM count and board space by 40% |
| UL Recognized Component (E156346) | Validates compliance with UL497B for primary/secondary circuit isolation in telecom equipment |
| Green molding compound (halogen-free) | Meets IPC-4101D/126 and JEDEC J-STD-020 for RoHS-compliant industrial and telecom manufacturing |
Applications
| DSL Line Card Protection | Ethernet PHY Interface |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protects ADSL2+ line drivers and receivers from lightning-induced surges on twisted-pair copper loops. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional crowbar clamping device that diverts >95% of 30A 10/1000μs surge away from PHY transceiver ICs. Use Value: 40pF capacitance avoids signal attenuation above 2.2MHz; 190V VDRM exceeds 140V peak AC ringing voltage with 35% safety margin. | Use Scenario: Shields 10/100BASE-TX magnetics and PHY pins from ESD and induced transients in industrial switches. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast-triggering TSPD that clamps within 100ns to limit voltage to <30V during 8/20μs surges. Use Value: 265V VBO prevents false triggering during 100V DC bias; SMB footprint aligns with standard Ethernet layout spacing. |
| Analog Telephone Line (POTS) | ISDN BRI Interface |
Use Scenario: Installed across tip/ring pairs in central office line cards and VoIP gateways to meet FCC Part 68 requirements. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standby-mode protector that maintains >1GΩ off-state impedance until 60A 10/700μs surge exceeds VBO. Use Value: 5μA max IDRM at 190V ensures negligible leakage current; UL497B listing satisfies regulatory test plan for primary circuit protection. | Use Scenario: Safeguards ISDN Basic Rate Interface (2B+D) S/T interface against longitudinal surges per ITU-T K.20/K.21. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Symmetrical bilateral clamp that responds identically to positive/negative transients on both B-channels and D-channel. Use Value: 150A 8/20μs rating exceeds K.21 Class B requirement (100A); 30°C/W RθJL supports 3-event-per-minute duty cycle without thermal runaway. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bidirectional TSPD applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Littelfuse SP1003-010 | 100V VDRM, 120A 8/20μs rating, higher CO (65pF) | Targeted for lower-voltage data lines (e.g., RS-485); unsuitable for 190V POTS lines | Select only when system operating voltage ≤100V and higher surge current headroom is needed |
| Vishay V130LA20AP | 130V VDRM, 200A 8/20μs, leaded DO-15 package | Requires through-hole mounting; not compatible with automated SMT assembly or space-constrained telecom modules | Choose only for legacy designs requiring leaded components or where SMB footprint is unavailable |
Compared with SP1003-010 and V130LA20AP, TB2300L-13-F uniquely balances 190V stand-off capability, SMB SMT compatibility, and 40pF low capacitance - making it optimal for next-gen DSL, VoIP, and ISDN line interface boards where voltage margin, layout density, and signal fidelity are jointly constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable continuous operating voltage for TB2300L-13-F?
The maximum rated repetitive off-state voltage (VDRM) is 190V. This is the peak AC or DC voltage the device reliably blocks without triggering. Operation above this value risks premature conduction or degradation. For 120VAC mains-derived telecom circuits, this provides ~35% margin over 170V peak, satisfying GR-1089-CORE design guidelines.
Does TB2300L-13-F require external gate control or biasing?
No. TB2300L-13-F is a passive, voltage-triggered thyristor device with no gate terminal. It operates autonomously: remaining non-conductive below VDRM, triggering at VBO (265V), and latching until load current drops below its holding current (150–800mA). No external circuitry, resistors, or bias sources are needed.
How does TB2300L-13-F compare to MOV-based protection in telecom applications?
TB2300L-13-F offers tighter voltage clamping (3.5V on-state vs. MOV's 30–60V clamping), faster response (<100ns vs. MOV's 20–50ns), and no degradation after repeated surges. Unlike MOVs, it has no capacitance shift or leakage increase over time, making it preferred for high-reliability DSL and ISDN interfaces where signal integrity and long-term stability are critical.
Can TB2300L-13-F be used in DC power rail protection?
No. TB2300L-13-F is optimized for AC and bidirectional signal line protection. Its holding current (150–800mA) must be exceeded to maintain conduction; in a DC rail, sustained current would prevent recovery, causing thermal failure. It is not rated or characterized for DC power bus applications - use dedicated DC TSPDs like SMAJ series or TVS diodes instead.
