1N6104US Application Field and Working Principle

The 1N6104US is an ultra-fast, high-capacity transient voltage suppressor diode (TVS), usually referred to as a "transient voltage suppression diode" or "TVS diode." It is designed to protect sensitive electronic circuits against various types of electrical surge-related damage, including electrostatic discharge (ESD) and over-voltage pulses.

The 1N6104US has an ultra-fast response time of only 50µs (micro-seconds). It is designed to effectively clamp voltage surges in applications dealing with radiated and electrostatic discharge immunity, including computers, data storage, consumer electronic equipment, power supplies, telecommunications equipment, and automotive electronics.

Product Features

• Ultra fast response time of 50µs
• High power peak pulse absorption
• High current rating of 4A
• Low threshold of 14V
• Thermal protection for overtemperature conditions
• UL 94V-0 compliant

Working Principle

Transient voltage suppression diodes are designed to operate as a clamp on the transient voltage peaks. The working principle behind them is to “breakdown” when the peak voltage reaches the device\'s threshold voltage so that current-limiting elements can be reflected through them. This action clamps the voltage peak below the safe operating voltage.

The 1N6104US is a fast-responding TVS diode that can respond to high-speed voltage transients, such as ESD. When an ESD pulse is applied, the diode moves quickly to the breakdown region, where current starts to flow. The breakdown voltage of the 1N6104US is 14V. This diode is designed to limit the voltage peak to 14V for a safe operating voltage.

The current Rating of the 1N6104US is 4A, which means it can absorb up to 4A of peak current. This diode also offers thermal protection, which will shut down the device if the temperature rises to a certain level.

Applications

TVS diodes are commonly used to protect semiconductors, electronic circuits, microprocessors, and other sensitive devices from over-voltage and ESD damage. The 1N6104US has a wide range of applications, due to its ultra-fast response time and high power peak pulse absorption.

The 1N6104US is perfect for consumer electronics, computer systems, communications, and automotive electronics, as it can help protect them from voltage surges and ESD. It is also suitable for applications in data storage, telecommunications, UPS systems, and embedded systems. The 1N6104US can be used in any of these applications due to its fast response time and high peak pulse absorption.

The 1N6104US is a robust TVS diode that can provide reliable and long-lasting transient voltage surge protection.
