[TCML] SISG success

[mddeming at aol.com]

Hi Finn,

I think the 275 is the highest voltage you can apply without danger of 
it turning on
and 350 is the highest the voltage could expect to see prior to 
turn-on.
But this "English as she is written" by them is not clear. ;^)

Terry, Jim, Bert, Bart, all 
 
I had a look at the new ones, and stumbeled on 2 specifications that I 
just cannot get to make sence together. To me they are contradictory, 
and perhaps the best reason why it`s not _me_ that is going to call 
Littlefuse. 
 
On this datasheet: 
http://www.littelfuse.com/part/P3100AD.html 
which describes a possible substitute to the old ones, there are 2 
voltages described: 
 
Vdrm1 voltage 275V 
"Peak Off-state Voltage 
Maximum voltage that can be applied while maintaining off state." 
 
Then there is: 
 
Vs at Vdrm1 voltage 350V 
"Switching Voltage 
Maximum voltage prior to switching to on state." 
 
The way I read it, both voltages describe the voltage which determines 
the point where the device turns on. 
How can thay be so different? 
 
Cheers, Finn Hammer
