A Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode, or simply a Transient Suppressor Diode, has become an integral component of the majority of modern electronics circuits. It is essentially a diode that is designed to protect other electronic components from brief over-voltage transients, which can potentially cause damage. The 5KP170A-TP diode is manufactured by Semtech, and is specifically designed for high-speed over-voltage protection (over-voltage protection, OVP).

The 5KP170A-TP is widely used in a variety of applications, such as portable devices such as cell phones, tablets, and laptops. It is also used in industrial system applications, including automotive electronic systems, avionics, and communications.

The 5KP170A-TP is based on a silicon avalanche diode that has been specially designed to provide high-speed and precision over-voltage protection. It has a working voltage (Vr) of 17 volts, and a peak pulse power of 170W (10/1000 uS). Its operating temperature range is from -55°C to | 175°C.

The 5KP170A-TP has a number of features that make it an ideal choice for OVP in high-speed applications. These include: high surge, fast switching, low power consumption, and wide operating temperature range. Its low power consumption helps to reduce the overall system power demand, resulting in lower energy costs.

The 5KP170A-TP is typically used in conjunction with a series resistor and bypass diode in order to create a low-voltage, over-voltage protection circuit. The resistor sets the operating voltage, while the bypass diode is used to provide a low resistance path for the current to flow. Once the operating voltage is reached, the bypass diode will trigger the diode to turn on, limiting the voltage to its maximum value, and protecting the circuit from further damage.

In summary, the 5KP170A-TP is a high-speed, low-power, over-voltage protector, that is well-suited for a wide range of applications. Its high surge, fast switching, and wide operating temperatures make it an ideal choice for protecting sensitive electronic components from potentially damaging voltage transients. Furthermore, its low power consumption helps to reduce the overall system power demand, resulting in lower energy costs.
