The 1N6117US is a uni-directional transient voltage suppressive diode. It is designed to protect sensitive circuitry from voltage transients induced by lightning and other transient voltage events. It is a ultra-low capacitance diode with a peak surge current of 15A and a breakdown voltage of 10V. It is ideal for use in automotive, computing, consumer electronics, gaming, and military applications.

The device is a simple PN junction diode that utilizes the inherent blocking capabilities of the diode to protect the surrounding circuitry. When an overvoltage condition is encountered, the diode quickly turns on and diverts the excess voltage away from the protected circuits. The voltage is then diverted back to ground.

The 1N6117US works by having two electrodes, anode and cathode, connected to the semiconductor junction with a very thin junction layer between the metallic contacts. When the device is placed in a circuit, and a potential difference is applied, the junctions release a portion of the potential charge as a current. When an overvoltage is applied, the diode turns on and literally creates a short between the anode and cathode by connecting them together, diverting the current to ground.

The 1N6117US has a peak surge current rating of 15A, making it ideal for protecting sensitive components from large voltage transients. It is a unidirectional device, meaning it will only conduct in one direction when the anode is more positive than the cathode. Additionally, the 1N6117US has a low capacitance of 1pF, making it suitable for use in high-speed applications such as automotive, computing and gaming. Its ultra-low capacitance also makes it suitable for military applications. The device has a clamping voltage of 10V.

The 1N6117US is a reliable, cost-effective solution for the protection of voltage sensitive components from transient overvoltages. It can be used in a wide variety of automotive, computing, consumer electronics, gaming and military applications. It is easy to integrate and provides an ultra-low capacitance and a peak surge of 15A.
