BiAs-MODE (2-line Bidirectional Asymmetrical protection mode)
With the GSOTxxC two signal- or data-lines (L1, L2) can be protected against voltage transients. With pin 3 connected to ground
and pin 1 and pin 2 connected to a signal- or data-line which has to be protected. As long as the voltage level on the data- or
signal-line is between 0 V (ground level) and the specified Maximum Reverse Working Voltage (VRWM) the protection diode
between pin 2 and pin 3 and between pin 1 and pin 3 offers a high isolation to the ground line. The protection device behaves
like an open switch.
As soon as any positive transient voltage signal exceeds the breakdown voltage level of the protection diode, the diode
becomes conductive and shorts the transient current to ground. Now the protection device behaves like a closed switch. The
Clamping Voltage (VC) is defined by the breakdown voltage (VBR) level plus the voltage drop at the series impedance (resistance
and inductance) of the protection diode.
Any negative transient signal will be clamped accordingly. The negative transient current is flowing in the forward direction
through the protection diode. The low Forward Voltage (VF) clamps the negative transient close to the ground level.
Due to the different clamping levels in forward and reverse direction the GSOTxxC clamping behavior is Bidirectional and
Asymmetrical (BiAs).
If a higher surge current or peak pulse current (IPP) is needed, both protection diodes in the GSOTxxC can also be used in
parallel in order to “double” the performance.
This offers:
• double surge power = double peak pulse current (2 x IPPM)
• half of the line inductance = reduced clamping voltage
• half of the line resistance = reduced clamping voltage
• double line capacitance (2 x CD)
• double reverse leakage current (2 x IR)

BiSy-MODE (1-line bidirectional symmetrical protection mode)
If a bipolar symmetrical protection device is needed the GSOTxxC can also be used as a single line protection device. Therefore
pin 1 has to be connected to the signal- or data-line (L1) and pin 2 to ground (or vice versa). Pin 3 must not be connected.
Positive and negative voltage transients will be clamped in the same way. The clamping current through the GSOTxxC passes
one diode in forward direction and the other one in reverse direction. The clamping voltage (VC) is defined by the breakthrough
voltage (VBR) level of one diode plus the forward voltage of the other diode plus the voltage drop at the series impedances
(resistances and inductances) of the protection device.
Due to the same clamping levels in positive and negative direction the GSOTxxC voltage clamping behaviour is bidirectional
and symmetrical (BiSy).
