TVS diodes, also known as Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS), are electronic components designed to protect other semiconductor devices from destructive voltage transients. The most common form of TVS diodes are unidirectional, meaning they can only protect from voltages that exceed some maximum threshold, usually determined by an avalanche voltage or by a zener voltage. The 5KP15CA-HR is one such unidirectional TVS.

The 5KP15CA-HR is specifically designed for the protection of automotive electrical and electronics systems. Its primary application is as a secondary protection of semiconductor devices and assemblies when used in combination with fuses, thermal protection, or other primary protection devices. The 5KP15CA-HR offers superior surge capability, making it ideal for applications where high levels of surge current are present.

The 5KP15CA-HR has an average clamping voltage of 15 Volts and can provide up to 5KA (5 KC, 5 kiloampere) of surge current. It has a low capacitance design, making it well suited for high-speed signal line protection. It is also RoHS compliant, making it an ideal choice for automotive applications.

The 5KP15CA-HR utilizes a low holding and clamping voltage design that allows it to absorb large transient pulses in an efficient manner. It is designed to be biased in an avalanche mode and is able to respond to high-frequency transients. The device works by responding to an excessive voltage transient by rapidly clamping the voltage at the specified zener, avalanche, or breakdown voltage.

The device then attempts to re-establish normal operating conditions by routing the excess charge away from the protected circuit. It does this by forcing the excess current to flow through itself and the other elements attached to it. This type of protection provides a reliable and efficient method of suppressing transient voltage levels in automotive systems.

The 5KP15CA-HR offers a wide range of features to provide effective transient protection. It has a low clamping voltage rating of 15 Volts and can handle transient currents of up to 5KA. It also has a low capacitance design and is RoHS compliant. This makes the 5KP15CA-HR an ideal choice for automotive voltage transient protection.
