TVS (transient voltage suppression) diodes are commonly used to protect circuits against high voltage, transient spikes, or ESD (electrostatic discharge). These diodes are designed to divert damaging voltage away from sensitive components inside the circuit and can generally handle more voltage than traditional TVS diodes. 5KP24C-B is a TVS diode designed to protect circuits from transient spikes.

5KP24C-B is used in various applications, including automotive, medical devices, consumer electronics, electrical machinery, environmental monitoring, and aerospace. These diodes can be configured as part of a system, or used as stand-alone components. The 5KP24C-B has a rated voltage of 24 volts, a peak pulse power rating of up to 800 watts and a breakdown voltage of 17 volts, making it an ideal choice for high voltage surge protection.

5KP24C-B operates by clamping any overvoltage transient and absorbing it, keeping it away from other components in the circuit. The diode works by clamping the transient voltage when it reaches a certain level, then suppressing it as it rises above. This is known as the breakdown voltage, which is the maximum voltage that the diode can safely handle before it damages the circuit. Once the peak voltage is reached, the diode quickly returns to its original state, allowing normal current to flow through the circuit.

The 5KP24C-B also offers high surge current capabilities. This is because the diode is designed to absorb large amounts of energy when the transient voltage is present. This is achieved through the use of components that are specifically selected to reduce the stored energy at the time of the transient. The 5KP24C-B is designed to minimise the peak energy of the transient, thus reducing the impact of the transient on other components of the circuit.

In addition, 5KP24C-B is also designed with a low clamping factor, meaning that the voltage will not be greatly exceeded following a surge. The low clamping factor also allows the diode to be more responsive to different transient events. The use of lower clamping factor helps protect the circuit from overvoltage, thereby reducing the risk of device failure due to sustained high voltage.

The 5KP24C-B can also be used in applications where greater levels of protection are required. This is achieved by connecting several of these diodes in parallel. When the transients exceed the rated breakdown voltage of each diode, the parallel configuration will help to provide greater protection and prevention of damage to devices.

5KP24C-B is an ideal choice for high eVent protection applications such as automotive systems, medical devices, and consumer electronics. It is also suitable for applications that require robust protection against high voltage transients. The diode is designed with a high surge current rating and a low clamping factor to offer additional protection against transients and overvoltage events.
