5KP22CA

TVS (transient voltage suppressor) diodes provide protection against electrical overstress (EOS) such as ESD (electro-static discharge) and inductive switching-related transients. The 5KP22 CA is an unidirectional, robust multiple avalanche TVS diode specially designed for high surge current capability. It\'s a dual terminal device suitable for circuit protection in the low voltage applications.

This 5KP22 CA\'s cylindrical package provides flat easy to solder surfaces and short terminal leads that make it suitable for automated production.

The 5KP22 CA has a rated surge peak current of 2000A and a maximum breakdown voltage of 5.5V. This makes it highly suitable for protecting low-voltage circuits from the damaging effects of voltage transients generated through electrostatic discharge.

The 5KP22 CA has a fast response time of 2.2 nanoseconds, enabling it to reduce the impact of high-energy transients from the circuit. It also has an ultra low leakage current of less than 5 μA. This feature makes it suitable for high-accuracy applications where minimal power consumption is required.

The 5KP22 CA is designed with a robust active element area that ensures maximum avalanche energy absorption and eliminates any risk of soft breakdown. It also has an innovative reverse energy sensing system that prevents the malfunctioning of secondary circuits even when high voltage transients are present in the primary circuit.

Applications for the 5KP22 CA include computer and communication networks, automotive electronics, precision instrumentation, line isolation, ground loop isolation, and line filters. The device has an operating temperature range of -55°C to +125°C and a storage temperature range of -55°C to +150°C.

The 5KP22 CA is an efficient device designed for electrical overstress protection in a wide range of electronic circuits. Its fast response time and low leakage current make it highly suitable for high-accuracy applications while its robust active element and avalanche energy absorption capability make it highly reliable for providing protection against voltage transients.
