TVS - Diodes

The 1.5SMC8.2A-E3/57T belongs to the Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diodes type of components, which are widely used in various electronics systems, electrical and optical systems, as well as security and fire safety systems. The device is designed to protect signal and power systems, by clamping the voltage in the system, as well as providing reverse polarity protection when exposed to high current loads.

Application Field

The 1.5SMC8.2A-E3/57T is used in various high power applications. It can be used as a voltage transient suppressor in variable input linear regulators and other power supply systems. The device is also well suited for various electrical insulation systems such as switchgears and signal isolation systems. In addition, the TVT diodes can be used in telecommunication systems or in the protection of LAN and Ethernet networks, for over voltage protection.

Working Principle

The 1.5SMC8.2A-E3/57T is a reverse polarity protection diode, which means it provides reverse voltage protection to the circuits they are used in. The device has an extremely low clamping voltage, and the let-through energy is limited, so that the device can prevent voltage transients in the system. It is also capable of preventing drift in the voltage levels due to temperature variations in the system, which is particularly relevant in high power applications.

During an event of overvoltage, the 1.5SMC8.2A-E3/57T will conduct current until the device is triggered into its conductive mode. The diode is then able to activate its circuitry and tripping characteristics to protect the circuit from the overload or any other form of fault or malfunction. During the cycle, the diode will reduce voltage transients in the system to acceptable levels, and then the diode will go into a blocking state, thus protecting the system from further damage.

Conclusion

The 1.5SMC8.2A-E3/57T is an essential component in modern electronics and electrical systems. It is designed to guard circuits against most high-level overvoltage and reverse voltage situations, as well as acting as a voltage stabilizer. They are widely used in industrial, automotive and consumer applications, providing reliable protection and reliable operation.
