1N6168A TVS - Diodes

The 1N6168A is a transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode, a specialized type of diode designed to quickly and safely discharge the energy from any transient overvoltage protective device. The 1N6168A TVS diode offers a wide range of protection from 5 to14V, making it suitable for a variety of applications.

Application Field

The 1N6168A TVS diode is most commonly used in automotive systems, telecom equipment, computers, and other electronic devices where transient overvoltages must be quickly removed to maximize protection. This TVS diode is also commonly used in in-line protection applications, providing protection from instantaneous voltage and current transients. The 1N6168A offers excellent protection from large, high-energy surges that could otherwise damage sensitive electronic components.In addition, this TVS diode is suitable for use in the aerospace industry, where lightning transients must be quickly dissipated. This diode has a voltage range from 5 to 14V, offering adequate protection for the majority of aerospace applications.

Working Principle

The 1N6168A TVS diode is designed to quickly and safely dissipate large amounts of transient energy without sustaining permanent damage. The diode holds a reverse breakdown voltage, at which point it quickly switches to an avalanche conduction mode. This mode operates with a low voltage and current, and its duration is nearly instantaneous.During this avalanche conduction mode, the diode acts as a conduit, quickly dissipating the transient energy away from the protected device. The diode is designed to self-protect, and it will shut off once a steady-state voltage is reached, ensuring that the protected device receives no more than a minimal amount of surge energy.In addition, the 1N6168A TVS diode is able to hold its reverse breakdown voltage even after multiple high-energy events. This ensures that the diode will be able to properly protect the equipment even during multiple events.

Conclusion

The 1N6168A TVS diode is an ideal choice for any application that requires fast and safe dissipation of transient energy while providing reliable protection from high-energy surges. This diode offers a wide voltage range from 5 to 14V, making it suitable for a variety of applications. In addition, its low voltage and current requirements and its ability to self-protect make it an ideal choice for any application where transient overvoltages must be quickly and safely dispatched.
