TVS diodes, also known as transient voltage suppressors, are specialized components used to protect electronic circuits from overvoltage transients, such as those caused by Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) or Electro Static Discharge (ESD). The 3KP36 is a TVS diode that is sometimes used in automotive applications, such as to protect against voltage spikes in the vehicle’s power line. It is designed to clamp the voltage to a safe level that will not damage the circuits.

The 3KP36 is a unidirectional diode with a maximum peak pulse power of 1.3 Kilowatts (KW). It is a surface-mount package with three pins that are typically soldered to the circuit board. The diode has a reverse breakdown voltage of 36 Volts (V), which is the maximum voltage that it can handle without damage. It is able to clamps voltage transients to levels up to 28.8V, providing protection from overvoltage.

The diode works by using a principle known as reverse breakdown voltage. This is an effect that occurs when a voltage greater than the diode’s peak reverse breakdown voltage (36V in the 3KP36) is applied to the diode. Above this voltage, the resistance between the diode’s electrodes becomes very low. This is known as the “breakdown” voltage, and it is the point at which the diode begins to conduct current.

When the voltage of the signal exceeds the breakdown voltage of the diode, the diode begins to conduct current. This causes the voltage of the signal to decrease, limiting it to a safe level. The 3KP36 is designed to manage this process, providing voltage protection up to a maximum of 36V. As a result, the power supply is protected from overvoltage and power surges, and the current is limited to a safe level.

The 3KP36 is a useful and reliable component for providing automotive voltage protection. It is designed to clamp the voltage transient in order to protect against power surges, and its small size makes it a suitable choice for surface-mount applications. Thanks to its reverse breakdown voltage of 36V, it is able to ensure a safe level of power and current, making it ideal for protecting circuits from power surges and other overvoltage transients.
