3KASMC18AHM3_A/I

The 3KASMC18AHM3_A/I is a TVS – diode product providing the highest quality surge protection available in the market today. This product developed by TDK-Lambda, offers incomparable performance for applications requiring maximum protection from transient voltages. Through its optimized design, this product requires minimal mounting space while providing superior protection in complex equipment.

Application Field: The 3KASMC18AHM3_A/I is ideally suited for all kinds of digital and analog electronic circuits and system circuits and can be used in a wide range of applications. Some of the more common uses include telecom, CATV and broadcast systems, audio and video systems, industrial equipment, computer and printer interfaces, consumer electronics, automotive and medical electronics.

Working Principle: The 3KASMC18AHM3_A/I utilizes a unique dual protection configuration of two TVS diodes connected anti-parallel and a Zener diode in series. This configuration provides a failsafe redundancy in both its clamping capability and voltage clamping thresholds. When a transient voltage spike is encountered the 3KASMC18AHM3_A/I will trigger and reduce the voltage across its Zener diode, this will in turn reduce the voltage of the spike and protect the circuitry.

The 3KASMC18AHM3_A/I offers the highest level of transient voltage suppression available in the market, providing protection from overvoltage transients, making it an essential component in any sensitive electronic system. With its optimized design, it requires minimal mounting space and offers superior protection compared to other products. Through its unique dual protection configuration, it provides overvoltage protection and ESD protection at the same time, making it the perfect choice for any application requiring optimal surge protection.
