BTC401N

BORN · Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT) · 1812

BTC401N from BORN, in a 1812. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 A1 passive GDT anode/cathode terminal 1 (symmetric); conducts when voltage across terminals exceeds DC spark-over of 400 V ±30%; rated 2.0 kA impulse discharge at 8/20 µs, 4 kV withstand at 10/700 µs.
2 A2 passive GDT anode/cathode terminal 2 (symmetric); conducts when voltage across terminals exceeds DC spark-over of 400 V ±30%; rated 2.0 kA impulse discharge at 8/20 µs, 4 kV withstand at 10/700 µs.
