1SMB90A TR13

TVS - Diodes are a type of device that protect sensitive electronic parts from damaging transients. The 1SMB90A TR13 is specifically designed to protect against voltage surges caused by abrupt changes in voltage. This is also known as an overvoltage protection device, meaning it prevents the voltage in a circuit or system from exceeding a certain level.

The primary working principle of the 1SMB90A TR13 is to clamp the transient voltage with its breakdown voltage before it reaches the protected device. The device has two different break-over points, one at the peak and the other one at the peak plus the peak-to-peak voltage. If the peak plus peak-to-peak voltage goes over the max working voltage, the 1SMB90A TR13 will clamp the voltage to just below its peak rating. This prevents the voltage from reaching any further into the circuit or system, protecting it from any potential damage.

The 1SMB90A TR13 also has a small capacitance to help absorb ambient energy. This helps to reduce the level of EMI in the environment. This is particularly useful in high-noise environments, as it reduces the amount of interference that can get into the protected circuit or system.

This device is most commonly used in automotive applications, where it can be used to protect against voltage transients caused by alternators, spark plugs, or other automotive parts. It can also be used in telecommunications systems or any other system that requires protection against overvoltage.

The 1SMB90A TR13 is a small component that can be easily mounted on a printed circuit board. It does not require any special tools or soldering to install, making it simple to use. The device is also customizable and can be adjusted to provide the exact level of voltage protection desired.

The 1SMB90A TR13 is a small, but powerful device that provides reliable protection against voltage transients. It’s a great choice for automotive applications, telecommunications systems, or any other system that requires protection against overvoltage. Its simple design and installation make it easy to use, and its adjustable voltage protection make it a great choice for any application.
