TVS - Diodes

Transient Voltage Suppression (TVS) Diodes are typically used for protecting electronic circuits from damage caused by electrostatic discharge (ESD) and other transients. The 1KSMBJ62A TVS diode is used for the protection of sensitive electronic devices against voltage disruptions and transients. It is primarily designed to protect components from overvoltage transients in low and high voltage applications.

1KSMBJ62A Application Field

The 1KSMBJ62A diode is designed mainly for protecting external and internal circuits from damage caused by ESD, lightning, and electrical transients. It also provides surge protection for intermediate and high-speed data lines in the automotive and consumer products markets. The 1KSMBJ62A is available with uni-directional and bi-directional protection. The device is RoHS and REACH compliant.

1KSMBJ62A Working Principle

In operation, the 1KSMBJ62A clamps high voltage transients to a safe level, providing transient suppression and electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection. When subjected to a high voltage surge or transient, the diode passes an initial surge current, which quickly degenerates into an adjustable clamping voltage. When the current exceeds the current limit, the diode will self-regulate, limiting the peak current while maintaining the clamping voltage.

The device’s wide operating range is enabled by a design featuring optimized structures that integrate several varistors and low-inductance resistors, as well as advanced integrated circuit (IC) protection components. It features extremely fast and reliable response time to a wide variety of transient waveforms.

Conclusion

The 1KSMBJ62A TVS diode is an excellent choice for protecting electronic devices from overvoltage transients. It is designed to provide superior ESD and transient protection for a wide range of applications, including automotive and consumer products markets. It features an optimized design and extremely fast and reliable response time. The device is RoHS and REACH compliant.
