TVS - Diodes

A Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode is an electrical component that is designed to protect other components against sudden or transient voltage spikes. TVS diodes are also known as transorbs or ESD (Electro-Static Discharge) protection diodes, and they are typically used to protect against electrostatic discharges, high voltage spikes, and inductive loads. TVS diodes are popular in the automotive industry, as well as in telecommunications and computer systems.

3KP48A-TP Application Field and Working Principle

The 3KP48A-TP is a TVS diode by Littelfuse designed to provide ESD protection and surge protection for computers, digital cameras, and other electronic components. It has an operating voltage range of 6 to 20 volts, a peak pulse power rating of 750 watts, and an ESD discharging capability of 30kV. The 3KP48A-TP is designed with a triplex configuration, which allows it to provide effective protection against both ESD and surge events.

The working principle of the 3KP48A-TP is relatively simple. When a voltage spike or surge of electricity is applied to the diode, it quickly switches from its normally non-conductive state to a highly conductive one. This causes the excess electricity to pass through the diode, which then dissipates it harmlessly. In the case of ESD events, the 3KP48A-TP will shunt any static electricity away from the protected component.

The 3KP48A-TP is a great choice for providing surge and ESD protection to a variety of electronic components and systems. Its high peak power rating and ESD discharging capability make it well-suited to protect against strong voltage surges and electrostatic discharges, while its triplex configuration ensures that it can protect against both at the same time.
