초록

본 논문은 외부의 서지로부터 컴퓨터 네트워크회로의 보호를 위한 서지방호장치에 대하여 기술하였다. 서지방호장치는 동작속도가 빠른 아발란시 다이오드와 에너지 내량이 큰 가스튜브의 하이브리드형으로 구성하였으며, 고주파 대역에서의 삽입손실을 줄이기 위하여 고속회복 다이오드를 사용하였다. 제안한 서지전압 차단장치의 성능 평가를 위하여 국제규격 IEC 61000-4-5 및 IEC 61643-21에 따라 서지차단특성과 신호전송 특성평가를 수행하였다. 실험결과로부터 본 서지차단장치는 국제규격에 제시된 서지차단특성을 만족하였으며, -3dB의 고역차단 주파수가 204 MHz로 100 Mbps급 근거리 통신네트워크에 적합한 특성을 나타내었다.

This paper dealt with the development of surge protection devices (SPDs) that can protect high speed computer network devices from overvoltages caused by switching operations or lightning surges. The designed SPD is a form of hybrid circuit which is composed of a gas tube having large current diverting capability, high response bi-directional avalanche diodes, and fast recovery diodes to reduce insertion loss on high frequency domain. Surge protection and signal transmission characteristics of the fabricated SPD was tested according to the international standards, IEC 61000-4-5 and IEC 61643-21. From the test results, the SPD is satisfied with the international standards and the high cut-off frequency was 204 MHz. Also, the SPD showed a good performance without an insertion loss on a field test of 100 Mbps class Local Area Network.
