TVS (Transient Voltage Suppression) diodes, also known as "surge protectors" or "clamping diodes" are semiconductor protective devices designed to reduce/suppress overvoltage transient events such as electrical surges, electrostatic discharges, lightning strikes and other high-voltage transient events. They are commonly used in electrical and electronic circuits to protect against voltage spikes. 1.5CE18A BK is one such TVS diode.

1.5CE18A BK TVS Diode is a unidirectional device that aids in the protection of components from electrical transients occurring on low and high voltage supply lines. It avoids latched-up and destruction of other components on the line and ensures that the line is still working after the voltage transient event. To do so, it absorbs the transient energy and clamps the waveform by diverting the excess current and voltage away from the sensitive components. This clamping of voltage has the advantage of not stressing the cable and other components. This allows components to last longer and increases the system\'s stability and reliability.

1.5CE18A BK has a maximum power dissipation of 500 mW, a peak pulse power dissipation of 2 kW, and a peak pulse current of 20 A. Its stand-off voltage (VWM) is 18V and its threshold voltage (VTM) is 14.6V. It is manufactured in a bidirectional type package with leads coated with Ni-P. The device has an incredibly high surge performance and enables superior protection against surges and ESDs, making it ideal for use in consumer end applications such as computers, LCDs, power supplies, and home appliances.

The working principle of 1.5CE18A BK is quite simple. It operates by utilizing a very fast response time to quickly turn the diode on in response to an over-voltage or over-current situation. When the voltage or current exceeds the breakdown voltage or current of the diode, it turns on quickly and dissipates the extra energy. The diode absorbs this extra energy and clamps the waveform without stressing the cable and other components because of its network transient suppression technology.

In summary, 1.5CE18A BK TVS diode is a unidirectional device used to protect against voltage spikes, surges, ESDs, and lightning strikes. It has a very fast response time, making it ideal for consumer end applications, and its network transient suppression technology ensures that the component is not stressed and that the line is still working after the over-voltage or over-current transient event. This ensures system reliability, stability, and longevity of components.
