1810-28-A3 Application Field and Working Principle

The 1810-28-A3 TVS – Mixed Technology is a circuit component used for a variety of applications in the computing, electronics and telecommunications industries. This type of TVS is composed of a resistive and capacitive component. It is designed to provide a high level of protection against electrostatic and transient lightning discharges. It is an essential component in any system where power surges and electrostatic discharges are inevitable.

The 1810-28-A3 TVS is ideally suited for use in audio and radio equipment, as well as in communications and power line equipment. It is also widely used in consumer electronic products such as DVD players, video game consoles, digital cameras, and home theatre systems. The 1810-28-A3 TVS is often preferred for its superior performance and cost effectiveness.

The 1810-28-A3 TVS provides two functions: it acts as a spark gap, suppressing high voltages, and as a capacitor clamps surges. Its special design with two components achieves the highest level of protection for the systems it is used in.

The spark gap portion of the 1810-28-A3 TVS is composed of a metal oxide varistor (MOV). The MOV’s main function is to provide a low impedance path for electrical current, while clocking the voltage to a safe level. When the voltage rises above the designated threshold value, the MOV will absorb the excess energy, thus preventing it from reaching the rest of the system.

The capacitor portion of the 1810-28-A3 TVS absorbs high frequency transients. When the voltage exceeds its rated threshold, the capacitor will discharge and clamp the voltage to a safe level. The capacitor is also used to provide a dampening effect to the system. This prevents system instability and increases overall system performance.

The 1810-28-A3 TVS is designed to be durable and reliable. It is constructed of a high temperature resistant insulation material and is designed to perform in temperatures ranging from -40° C to +85° C. It is also designed to handle high energy transients of up to 40kA.

The 1810-28-A3 TVS is a versatile and cost-effective solution for protecting sensitive electronic systems from electrostatic discharges and transient disturbance. It is designed to be robust, durable, and reliable, and is suitable for a wide range of applications. The two components – the MOV and the capacitor – provide superior protection while keeping costs in check.
