TVS - Diodes

Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diodes, also known as bidirectional suppressors, are semiconductor, avalanche diodes designed to protect sensitive electronic components from electrical surges due to lightning or power line transient events. TVS diodes have an extremely low dynamic resistance and can typically protect against transients up to several thousand volts.

5KP160A-HR Application Field and Working Principle

The 5KP160A-HR is specifically designed to help protect against unwanted electrical transients and is used in a variety of mid-range power applications. It is a highly robust and reliable device. It features a rated peak power of 1600W, a 10/1000 microsecond response time, and an operating and storage temperature range of -40 °C to +125 °C.

The 5KP160A-HR’s working principle is simple. The device operates according to the PN junction principle, whereby a potential difference is created across a diode with a Cathode and an Anode. When a transient or surge is encountered the device conducts current at a level determined by the difference in the potential. As the surge’s voltage drops, the diode turns off the surge current, thus protecting the circuit.

The 5KP160A-HR is best suited to low voltage applications and is ideal for use in power supplies, TV receivers, home appliances, and automotive electronics. It is also used in many commercial applications, such as audio-video systems, cameras, and computers. The device is well-suited to applications requiring a low static current and a fast response time to transient conditions.)
