TVS (transient voltage suppressor) diodes are a type of semiconductor used to protect electronic circuits from over-voltage transients or electrical surges. The 5KP18E3/TR13 is a member of this family and it is designed to reduce the likelihood of catastrophic failure due to transients or electrical surges on the electrical system. It is a modern, lightweight solution with superior reliability for any applications that require power protection.

Application Field

The 5KP18E3/TR13 is a state-of-the-art TVS Diode designed primarily for applications that require low capacitance and low power dissipation for ultra-fast response times. This device is ideal for applications such as passenger vehicles, industrial control circuits, telecom apparatus, consumer electronics, automotive electronics, and data processing equipment. It is suitable for a broad range of applications, including automotive, telecommunications, and medical equipment.

Features

The 5KP18E3/TR13 comes with a variety of features that make it an ideal choice for both industrial and automotive applications. It features surge protection up to 30kA (8/20μs waveform), a response time of less than 5ns, a breakdown voltage of 18V, up to 5000 Watts peak power dissipation, and a low leakage current of less than 1mV. It has a wide operating temperature range from -55°C to 125°C, high peak power dissipation, and a high storage temperature range. It is also RoHS compliant.

Working Principle

The 5KP18E3/TR13 works by absorbing energy from an electrical surge and then dissipating it as heat. This happens when the breakdown voltage is exceeded by the surge voltage and the diode starts to conduct. The higher the peak power, the more current the diode needs to absorb and the greater the heat generated. The diode is able to withstand high voltage spikes because of its high peak power dissipation and because it has a lower capacitance than other TVS diodes, which results in a faster response time. The lower capacitance also ensures lower power dissipation and less chance of damaging electronic components.

Advantages

The 5KP18E3/TR13 has several advantages over other TVS diodes. It supplements an existing circuit protection scheme, providing extra protection for those sensitive components. It is also fast acting, which allows for better circuit protection. Furthermore, its high peak power dissipation and low leakage current give it superior reliability and protection from even high power spikes. Lastly, its small size allows it to fit in tighter spaces, making it ideal for circuit boards with small footprints.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the 5KP18E3/TR13 is a reliable and robust TVS diode, designed for applications that require fast response times and superior protection from high-power transients. It is RoHS compliant, has a wide operating temperature range, high peak power dissipation, and low leakage current. It is a great choice for both industrial and automotive applications and provides an excellent solution for protection against electrical surges.
