The TVS (transient voltage suppressor) diodes provide transient voltage protection and are designed to protect vulnerable equipment from a surge or spike in transient voltage. One such TVS diode is the 15KPA17ATR. This diode provides protection from transients and can work over a wide range of temperatures. In this article, we will discuss the application field and working principle of the 15KPA17ATR.

Application Field

The 15KPA17ATR is designed for use in various applications such as automotive, telecom, industrial, computers and consumer electronics. In automotive applications, it is used to protect against over-voltage events. Its low capacitance allows for fast response time, making it ideal for automotive applications. It is used in computers and consumer electronics to protect sensitive circuitry from transients. It can also be employed as an inductor in telecom applications to suppress ringing noise. In industrial applications, it is used for lightning and surge protection.

Working Principle

The basic operation of the 15KPA17ATR is based on a Zener diode structure. It is a breakdown diode with a reverse breakdown voltage of 15kV. When a voltage greater than the breakdown voltage is applied to the diode, it conducts the current and diverts it away from the protected circuit. The 15KPA17ATR also has extremely low capacitance which allows it to respond quickly and efficiently to voltage transients. It has a rated peak power of 6 Watts and a continuous power of 200 mW, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.

The 15KPA17ATR also has ESD (electrostatic discharge) protection, which is essential in protecting sensitive equipment from electrical overstress (EOS). When an electrostatic field is applied, the diode acts like a capacitor and diverts the current away from the protected circuit, preventing any damage. This makes the 15KPA17ATR ideal for use in sensitive electronics.

The 15KPA17ATR also has wide-temperature support, making it suitable for use in a broad range of temperatures (-65°C to 150°C). This makes it ideal for use in harsh environments. It also has on-state voltage of 2.7V and a low leakage current of 2 μA, making it highly efficient.

The 15KPA17ATR is a robust and reliable diode which provides transient voltage protection in a wide range of applications. Its low capacitance and wide-temperature support make it ideal for use in automotive, telecom, industrial, computer and consumer electronics. Its ESD protection and on-state voltage also make it highly efficient and enable it to effectively protect sensitive circuits from transients.
