TVS (transient voltage suppressor) diodes are used to protect electrical equipment from damage due to transient voltage by clamping circuit voltages to a safe level. The 15KPA45AE3/TR13 is a unidirectional TVS diode designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients when their operating voltage is within the range of 6.5 to 170 Volts.

Features of the 15KPA45AE3/TR13

The 15KPA45AE3/TR13 comes in a TO-220AB package and provides excellent surge capability. It has a breakdown voltage of 45 volts and a reverse stand-off voltage range of 6.5 - 170 volts. It has a clamping voltage of 58 volts and a maximum current-handling capability of 45 amps. This device can suppress transients with very little degradation in circuit performance. It also features a low reverse leakage, fast response time, and low capacitance. The operating temperature range of this device is from -55°C to 150°C.

Applications of the 15KPA45AE3/TR13

The 15KPA45AE3/TR13 is suitable for use in a wide variety of applications, including automotive, telecommunications, computer peripherals, industrial controls, and digital systems. It can be used for secondary protection of sensitive circuitry from voltage spikes that may occur due to power supply transients, ESD events, electrical noise, or lightning strike. It is particularly well suited for protection of ICs, sensitive logic circuits, and other components that are highly sensitive to voltage transients.

Working Principle of the 15KPA45AE3/TR13

The working principle of the 15KPA45AE3/TR13 is similar to that of other TVS diodes. It works by clamping voltages above its breakdown voltage to the zener diode break down voltage. When the voltage is below the breakdown voltage, it behaves as an open circuit. However, when the voltage rises above the breakdown voltage, the device begins to conduct current, thus providing a low impedance path between the input and output terminals. This allows the excess voltage to dissipate without damaging the load or other connected components.

The 15KPA45AE3/TR13 has a high surge capability and can suppress transients with very little degradation in circuit performance. It also helps to reduce electromagnetic interference as well as overvoltage and reverse-bias conditions. The device also offers good thermal stability, making it a great choice for protecting sensitive circuitry from transient overvoltage.

Conclusion

The 15KPA45AE3/TR13 is a unidirectional TVS diode designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients when their operating voltage is within the range of 6.5 to 170 Volts. This device has a high surge capability and can suppress transients with very little degradation in circuit performance. It is suitable for use in automotive, telecommunications, computer peripherals, industrial controls, and digital systems, and is particularly well suited for protection of ICs, sensitive logic circuits, and other components that are highly sensitive to voltage transients.
