In the fields of industrial automation, automotive electronics, and high-end consumer electronics, ESD protection for 24V voltage systems has always been a significant challenge for design engineers. The GBLC24C ESD protection diode, launched by Slkor, is a key member of the GBLC0xC series, specifically designed for mid-to-high voltage applications, providing a professional-grade electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection solution for 24V systems. This product enhances the working voltage to 24V while maintaining the ultra-low capacitance characteristics of the series, filling the gap in the market for high-voltage, low-capacitance ESD protection components.

The GBLC24C continues the series' exceptional performance genes, employing advanced semiconductor manufacturing technology. Its core protective performance fully complies with three major international standards: ESD protection capability of ±15kV (air discharge) / ±8kV (contact discharge) according to IEC61000-4-2; 40A (5/50ns) electrical fast transient (EFT) protection per IEC61000-4-4; and 12A (8/20μs) lightning surge protection as defined in IEC61000-4-5. These three protection mechanisms create a comprehensive circuit protection system, ensuring stable operation of devices in the harshest electromagnetic environments.

In terms of technical specifications, the GBLC24C showcases professional-grade product features: a reverse working voltage (VRWM) of 24.0V, perfectly suited for industrial standard voltage systems; a minimum breakdown voltage (VBR) of 26.7V providing a reasonable safety margin; a clamping voltage (VC) of 56V ensuring safety for the backend circuit during transient events; an ultra-low leakage current (IR) of 1.0μA, which has minimal impact on system power consumption; and a very low junction capacitance (CJ) of 0.8pF, ensuring signal integrity. Notably, it features a response time of less than 1ns, a leading indicator in similar products, capable of promptly suppressing sudden transient interference.

The product is housed in a miniature SOD-323 package, integrating powerful protection functions within a compact 3.8mm × 1.35mm size. The packaging material complies with UL94V-0 flammability standards and can withstand 260°C soldering for 10 seconds, making it fully compatible with automated mounting processes. The standard 7-inch reel packaging, with 3000 pieces per reel, meets mass production requirements and simplifies inventory management. This compact design allows the GBLC24C to be easily integrated into space-constrained industrial equipment, offering greater flexibility for PCB layout.

The GBLC24C is particularly suitable for the following application areas:

1. Industrial control systems: 24V line protection for PLCs, industrial buses, and sensor interfaces.

2. Automotive electronics: Power protection for in-car entertainment systems and control modules.

3. High-end consumer electronics: Interface protection for high-power audio devices and display equipment.

4. Computing devices: Peripheral interface protection for industrial-grade servers and workstations.

5. Medical equipment: High-reliability circuit protection for medical instruments.

Compared to similar products on the market, the GBLC24C has three significant advantages: first, its voltage adaptability, with the 24V working voltage covering most industrial application scenarios; second, its performance balance, providing sufficient protection capability while maintaining low capacitance characteristics; and third, its reliability, rigorously tested to ensure long-term stable operation. These advantages make it the go-to protection solution for engineers in high-voltage applications.

Real-world application cases demonstrate that after using the GBLC24C in the 24V sensor interfaces of industrial automation equipment, the failure rate caused by ESD was reduced by over 90%. A well-known automotive electronics manufacturer successfully passed the ISO 10605 standard's stringent tests after adopting this device in their in-vehicle system. These successful cases fully prove the excellent performance of the GBLC24C in real-world applications.

As Industry 4.0 and IoT technologies develop, the application scenarios for 24V systems will become even more widespread. Slkor will continue to optimize the GBLC series, providing engineers with more comprehensive circuit protection solutions. The launch of the GBLC24C not only expands the choice of high-voltage ESD protection devices but also showcases Slkor's technological innovation capabilities in the circuit protection field. In the future, Slkor will remain committed to developing higher-performance protection devices to help electronic equipment cope with the increasingly complex electromagnetic environment challenges.
