Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS) are an important component in the field of electronics today. TVS diodes provide electrical protection by absorbing energy from transients in order to protect the circuitry from damage. They act as a surge protector, clamping or limiting transients to a safe level. The SM6T36CA-M3/5B is part of a series of TVS diodes designed to provide protection from high-energy overvoltage transients in a variety of automotive, industrial, and consumer applications.

The SM6T36CA-M3/5B is constructed with 400W silicon breakdown junctions which enable it to absorb power transient pulses without damage. It has a low leakage current of 35μA maximum at rated breakdown voltage. Its fail-safe short circuit protection provides inherent protection against inductive turn-on. The device is voltage-triggered, enabling it to clamp the voltage waveform at a low level. It is capable of handling a pulse width of 10µs max, and has a peak pulse power rating of 600W.

The SM6T36CA-M3/5B can be used in a variety of applications, including automotive lighting systems, instrumentation, and audio circuits. The device is ideal for AC/DC or DC/DC systems, and its exceptional clamping capabilities make it a great choice for use in voltage-sensitive circuits. It can handle peak surge currents up to 3A (10/1000μs waveform), and it has a low capacitance of 0.5pF (typical).

The working principle of the SM6T36CA-M3/5B is fairly straightforward. When the voltage across the device increases beyond its breakdown level, it begins to act like a short circuit. This clamps the voltage waveform at a safe level. The device will remain in this state until the current decrease and the voltage falls below its breakdown level. Then, the device will reset itself back to its open state.

The SM6T36CA-M3/5B offers exceptional protection from high-energy transients, and its low leakage current and clamping capabilities make it an ideal choice for sensitive electronics. It is well-suited for automotive, industrial, and consumer applications, and its excellent surge handling ability makes it an excellent choice for protecting against overvoltage transients.
