TVS - Diodes are an important tool in the Electronic Industry. In particular, the 30KPA28CE3/TR13 has become a popular component due its wide range of applications and its useful properties. This article will explain the application fields of the device and detail its working principles.

The 30KPA28CE3/TR13 is a transient voltage suppressor diode with its main application field being the protection of electronic circuits from damaging electronic transients. It is a two-terminal device with a Zener diode-like structure and a low clamping voltage. It has a reverse breakdown voltage of about 28V with a peak pulse power of up to 160 W allowing it to offer excellent protection against spikes, surges and transients.

The device offers a wide variety of applications from protecting telephone lines from surge damage to the suppressing of electrostatic discharge (ESD). It is also used a surge protection tool in switching power supplies and motor controllers by diverting high peak surges through the Zener diode structure. It is also used for voltage transient suppression in many other applications such as signal line protection, load switches, and EMI filters.

The working principle of the device is quite straight forward. As the voltage across the device exceeds its breakdown voltage of 28V, the current starts to increase exponentially and the device switches to a conducting state. This keeps the voltage at the breakdown voltage and diverts the incoming surge from damaging the circuit. The surge or transient energy is then dissipated as heat from the device leading to a reduction in the surge.

As well as its use in electronic applications, the 30KPA28CE3/TR13 is also widely used in automotive applications. It is used for preventing electrical circuits from overvoltage damage caused by voltage spikes and transients. It also provides protection from short-circuits and other erratic voltage transients.

The device is also used for providing overload protection for coils and inductors. It can be incorporated between the power supply and the coil in order to protect the circuit from overvoltage by switching to the conducting state when the voltage exceeds the breakdown voltage.

In summary, the 30KPA28CE3/TR13 is a highly versatile device. It is used as a transient voltage suppressor in many applications, ranging from automotive to electronic, and its working principle is straightforward and effective. It can be easily incorporated in electronic circuits to protect them from damaging voltage spikes and transients.
