SMD5050-300NA Gas Discharge Tubes – SMD5050 Package | RUILON

RUILON

The SMD5050-300NA Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) from RUILON is a high-reliability surge protection device engineered to safeguard electronic systems from lightning strikes, transient overvoltage, and high-energy surge events. With a nominal DC spark-over voltage of 300V (tested at 100V/µs), it ensures fast and stable triggering, efficiently diverting surge currents away from sensitive components and enhancing overall system protection.

Built with advanced ceramic gas discharge technology, the SMD5050-300NA delivers consistent impulse spark-over performance at 1kV/µs, along with high insulation resistance and low capacitance at 1 MHz. These features make it ideal for high-speed communication lines and precision electronics where maintaining signal integrity is critical. Its strong impulse discharge current capability (8/20µs waveform) and excellent impulse withstanding voltage ensure long service life and reliable operation under repeated surge conditions.

Compared to lower voltage variants, the 300V model offers increased voltage tolerance and improved protection margins, making it suitable for industrial automation systems, telecom infrastructure, and power supply applications. The SMD5050 package provides superior thermal dissipation, higher surge current handling capability, and robust mechanical strength, while enabling efficient surface-mount assembly for modern PCB designs.
