ABSTRACT:
A circuit for attenuating a surge is disclosed that might include a conductor for receiving the surge, a capacitor, positioned along the conductor, for blocking the surge, and a gas tube having a first end coupled to the conductor and a second end coupled to a ground. The circuit might also include a transformer having a first wire and a second wire, the transformer being coupled to the conductor, a resistor coupled to the first and second wires of the transformer, a varistor coupled to the first wire of the transformer, and a diode coupled to the second wire of the transformer.
