TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressors) Diodes are a type of semiconductor device that helps protect electronic circuits from power surges or transient voltage. The 3KP17C is specifically designed to protect low-power electronic devices from lightning-induced electrical disturbances and other types of over-voltage transients. This article will discuss the application field and working principle of the 3KP17C.

The 3KP17C is specifically designed to protect low-power electronic devices from high power disturbances, such as those created by lightning strikes. Its robust design and low capacitance make it an ideal choice for protecting low-power applications such as circuit boards, lighting, HVAC systems, and medical equipment. In addition, its low valve closure time (TVS) ensures that it will react quickly to transient voltage surges. This makes it an ideal choice for applications where fast response times are critical.

The working principle of the 3KP17C is based on the principle of avalanche breakdown. Basically, when the circuit is subjected to a high enough voltage, it will cause electrons in the circuit to gain part of their energy from the field generated by the applied voltage. This will then cause a large number of electrons to move as a “wave” of charge, which will create a very rapid surge in current. This surge in current is referred to as an “avalanche breakdown”.

Once the avalanche breakdown has occurred, the 3KP17C will activate its internal shunt mechanism, quickly diverting the surge in current away from the protected application. This helps to protect the application from any damage that could have been caused by the transient voltage. The shunt mechanism is designed to handle multiple high voltage transients and has a fast response time, so it can effectively protect the application from damage.

In summary, the 3KP17C is an ideal device for protecting low-power electronic devices from transient voltage and other power disturbances. Its low capacitance and fast response time make it an ideal choice for protecting sensitive applications. Furthermore, its avalanche breakdown design helps ensure that it will protect the application in the event of a high voltage transient. All of these features make the 3KP17C an optimal choice for protecting low-power applications.
