The 1.5SMC100A TVS diode is an advanced form of transients voltage surge suppression. It is used for protection against voltage transients, and works by diverting, limiting and suppressing surge voltages, therefore reducing the exposure to damaging electrical transients. This diode provides protection from large surges of transients that can occur in many systems.

The 1.5SMC100A works as a combination of a diode and a leaded varistor. This combination allows the product to be a highly efficient and cost-effective method of surge protection. The diode component of the TVS is responsible for limiting the current passing through it, while the varistor component is for absorbing incoming surges. When an overvoltage transient appears on the leaded output pins, the diode and varistor absorb the energy and then disperse it to a relatively safe level. The integrated diode consists of an anode and a cathode, which are connected with a high-speed current conducting channel between them.

The primary applications for 1.5SMC100A are for communications equipment, industrial electronics, automotive electronics, consumer electronics and power supplies. It is also ideal for protecting exposed circuits from excessive current caused by electrostatic discharge, power line spikes or lightning strikes. In addition, this diode can provide effective static protection for direct current (DC) circuits since it exhibits low clamping voltage across a wide range of operating currents. With a standoff voltage range of 1.5K to 40K volts, the 1.5SMC100A has a breakdown voltage rating of 20V.

The 1.5SMC100A works by limiting the surge current to a safe level, so that the components in the circuit are not damaged. When a transient voltage appears on the output leads, the diode and varistor absorb the energy and release it in a controlled manner. The anode and the cathode of the diode each provide their own independent protection, thus maintaining a much lower noise floor and minimizing the possibility of destruction. The diode\'s capacitance also absorbs RF energy, preventing it from entering the circuitry.

With its low clamping voltage and high energy rating capability, the 1.5SMC100A is a reliable, cost-effective solution for protecting sensitive electronic components from overvoltage transients. The diode also provides excellent RF protection against static electricity, power line surges, and lightning strikes. In addition, the 1.5SMC100A is designed to be used in a wide range of applications, making it an ideal choice for applications in a variety of fields.
