Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diodes are designed to protect sensitive electronics from potential damage due to electrical transients. TVS devices provide the necessary clamping voltage that can protect the invaluable components of the circuit against over-voltage conditions.

The 15KPA18CE3/TR13 is a surface mount transient voltage suppressor with ESD protection in a small form factor. It features outstanding ESD protection of up to 25kV contact discharge and excellent clamping characteristics with self-recovery capability. This TVS diode is ideal for electrical overstress (EOS) and Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) protection in applications where it can be exposed to EMI/RFI noise coupling.

The 15KPA18CE3/TR13 has a 5V breakdown voltage , 18V peak pulse power capability and screw mountable end caps making it easy to install. The TVS diode is capable of handling peak surge currents up to 34A and is designed to withstand continuous forward current of 5A at an operating temperature between -55℃ to +125℃.

The working principle of 15KPA18CE3/TR13 can be best explained by looking at the schematic diagram below. In the diagram, the TVS diode is connected between Line (L) and Neutral (N). When the voltage between Line and Neutral exceeds the breakdown voltage of the diode, the diode begins to conduct and a current is established.

Once the current has reached the level of the peak clamping current, the voltage across the diode begins to decrease until a steady state voltage is reached. At this point, the current has been limited to the required level and the diode is no longer conducting. This ensures that the components in the circuit are not exposed to any over-voltage conditions.

The 15KPA18CE3/TR13 is used in various applications such as motor control systems, telecommunications, data communication networks, automotive signal/control circuits, medical equipment, audio/visual equipment and home appliances. This TVS diode is designed to be used in a wide range of circuit protection applications and is capable of protecting both AC and DC circuits.

The 15KPA18CE3/TR13 is an ideal solution for EOS and ESD protection in a variety of applications. Its self-recovery capability, wide operating temperature range, and excellent clamping characteristics make it the perfect choice for those looking for reliable protection for their circuits.
