DESCRIPTION
Dedicated to the protection of sensitive telecom
equipment, the LCP3121 provides protection
which can be programmed by both voltage and
current.
The breakdown voltage can be easily programmed
by using an external zener diode.
The protection functionprogrammed by the current
is achieved with the use of a resistor between the
gate and the cathode. The value of the resistor will
determine the level of the desired current before
the triggering of the device.
A multiple protection mode is also performed when
using several diodes providing each line interface
with an optimized protection level.
If desired,a bidirectionalprotection functioncan be
achieved by the use of two LCP3121.

This is a GO-NO GO test which allows to confirm the holding current (IH) level in a functional test circuit.
TEST PROCEDURE :
- Adjust the current level at the IH value by short circuiting the D.U.T.
- Fire the D.U.T. with a surge current : IPP = 10A, 10/1000µs.
- The D.U.T. will come back to the off-state within a duration of 50ms max.

junction temperature (typical values).
