3KP15CA-B TVS - Diodes

Transient Voltage Surge Suppressor (TVS) diodes are voltage-dependent devices designed to absorb transient energy, often from lightning, thus preventing voltage spikes from damaging sensitive equipment. The 3KP15CA-B TVS – Diode is a multi-functional device that is suitable for a wide variety of applications. It has a low total leakage current and a low dynamic resistance. This article will discuss the application field and working principle of this device.

Application Field

The 3KP15CA-B TVS – Diode is ideal for protecting DC power supplies, AC power supplies, consumer electronic devices, telecom equipment and automotive systems against voltage spikes. It is designed to handle transient voltage spikes in the range of - 30V to + 30V and withstands high peak currents as high as 16 amps. It has an effective clamping voltage of 12V, which is suitable for most applications.

Working Principle

TVS diodes work on the principle of current clamping. When the voltage rises above a certain threshold, the TVS diode starts to conduct and redirects current away from the voltage source. When the voltage returns to normal, the TVS diode stops conducting and the current is directed back to the voltage source. This current clamping process helps protect both the voltage source and the components it is connected to.The 3KP15CA-B TVS – Diode is designed to provide protection against over-voltage conditions in both positive and negative polarities. It has a built-in temperature stability feature which ensures that it performs reliably and consistently under varying temperatures. Additionally, the device has an ESD protection rating of IEC 6100-FS4, which ensures the device provides effective protection against Electrostatic Discharge (ESD).

Conclusion

In conclusion, the 3KP15CA-B TVS – Diode is an ideal device for a wide variety of applications where protection against transient voltage spikes is required. This device provides effective protection in both positive and negative polarities, has a built-in temperature stability feature and offers high peak current withstanding capabilities. It is also rated for IEC 6100-FS4 ESD protection, making it a reliable and versatile choice when it comes to protecting sensitive equipment against transient voltage surges.
