Transient voltage suppressor diodes, commonly referred to as TVS diodes, are special types of semiconductor diodes that are used to protect sensitive electronic circuits from high voltage transients. The 5KP15A-E3/54 is a high-performance transient voltage suppressor diode designed to protect sensitive electronic components from lightning, electrostatic discharge, and other transients. The 5KP15A-E3/54 is a 15A, 0.15uS rated diode with an operating voltage range of 6.2V to 450V.

Application fields

The 5KP15A-E3/54 is ideal for applications in automotive electronics, telecommunications, computers and peripherals, industrial control systems, measurements and instrumentation, and audio/video equipment. It is also suitable for applications where high crystal breakdown voltage, low leakage current, temperature stability, and good ESD protection is required.

Working Principle

The 5KP15A-E3/54 is primarily used to protect sensitive electronic components from transient voltages, such as those experienced during a lightning strike or electrostatic discharge. The diode is designed such that when a voltage transient is detected, the diode will immediately begin to short-circuit the transient voltage. This allows the voltage spike to be safely diverted to ground, thereby protecting the electronic components from damage.

The 5KP15A-E3/54 is designed to protect against ESD and EFT events, as well. ESD, or Electrostatic Discharge, is an electrical discharge that occurs when two objects have built up an unequal distribution of electric charge. EFT, or Electromagnetic Field Tolerance, is a type of radio-frequency disturbance caused by electrostatic discharge. When these events occur, the voltage spike is quickly diverted to ground, protecting the sensitive electronic components from voltage transients.

In addition, the 5KP15A-E3/54 offers a high ESD protection level of up to 16KV, as well as a high electrical strength of 300Vrms and low leakage current of 0.2A. This ensures that the diode can handle large electrical transients and still provide reliable protection.

Conclusion

The 5KP15A-E3/54 is a high-performance transient voltage suppressor diode designed to protect sensitive electronic components from lightning, electrostatic discharge, and other transients. The diode is ideal for applications in automotive electronics, telecommunications, computers and peripherals, industrial control systems, measurements and instrumentation, and audio/video equipment. In addition, the 5KP15A-E3/54 offers a high ESD protection level of up to 16KV, as well as a high electrical strength of 300Vrms and low leakage current of 0.2A.
