Voltage Clamp Module

Advanced Linear Devices, Sunnyvale, CA, offers the SABMBOVP family of low-power, low-voltage, high-precision voltage-clamp modules for clamping products that are 5V or below. The circuit board series protects from overvoltage by using very low-voltage enhancement-mode MOSFETs to improve the clamping function. Both the SABMBOVP and Zener diode options monitor the input voltage and control the external transistor switch’s gate without affecting the load circuit’s operation.
