TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressors) diode technology has become the most popular choice for device over-voltage protection. The 15KPA20ATR is a member of the 15KPA series of TVS diodes, which is designed for protecting against short line-to-ground or line-to-line transients such as those found in automotive and industrial applications. This article will explore the application field and working principle of the 15KPA20ATR.

The 15KPA20ATR is designed to protect sensitive electronic circuits from transients caused by inductive and electrostatic discharges (ESDs). It is suitable for use in automotive systems, industrial automation, lighting control, and other applications where protection against transients is required. It is designed to operate in two protection modes: clamping and shielding. When an over-voltage condition occurs, the 15KPA20ATR quickly allows current to flow through it, limiting the voltage across the protected circuit to a safe level.

The 15KPA20ATR is capable of withstanding up to 15KV of ESD pulse and supports pulse widths up to 20A. It is constructed from ultra-low capacitance silicon diodes which are capable of handling high current transients up to 7A. The device is also able to protect circuits with very low capacitance, making it ideal for use in high performance applications. In addition, the diode has low capacitance to voltage (CV) ratio, making it suitable for use in high speed applications.

The working principle of the 15KPA20ATR is simple. When the voltage across it exceeds a certain threshold, the diode will allow current to flow through it, limiting the voltage across the protected circuit to a safe level. The diode will then absorb the energy released by the transient, and prevent it from damaging the protected circuit. The 15KPA20ATR is designed to operate in two modes: clamping and shielding. In the clamping mode, the diode quickly allows current to flow through it, acting as a short circuit and absorbing the energy released by the transient. In the shielding mode, the diode acts as an open circuit, creating an effective barrier to ESD and other transients.

The 15KPA20ATR is a versatile and reliable device that offers excellent protection against transients for both automotive and industrial applications. It is designed to provide maximum protection against over-voltage conditions, even in high speed applications. The diode has low capacitance to voltage (CV) ratio, making it suitable for use in high performance applications. It is also able to protect circuits with very low capacitance, making it ideal for use in high speed applications. Furthermore, the device is able to withstand up to 15KV of ESD pulses and supports pulse widths up to 20A.

Overall, the 15KPA20ATR is a reliable and efficient device that provides excellent protection against transients such as inductive and electrostatic discharges. It is suitable for use in automotive and industrial applications, lighting control, and other applications where protection against transients is required. The diode has low capacitance to voltage (CV) ratio, making it suitable for use in high speed applications. It is also able to protect circuits with very low capacitance, making it ideal for use in high performance applications. Furthermore, the device is able to withstand up to 15KV of ESD pulses and supports pulse widths up to 20A.
