Introduction to 5KP26C TVS - Diodes

Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS) - diodes are semiconductor components that offer complete protection for electronic systems against dangerous spikes in voltage. 5KP26C is a unidirectional (uni-directional) TVS - diode designed for use in industrial, automotive and telecom applications. In this article, we discuss the 5KP26C application field and working principle.

Application Fields of 5KP26C TVS - Diodes

5KP26C is constructed for multiple applications. It offers 2000W peak pulse power and 10A steady-state current in an industry-standard SMA package.

• 5KP26C has multiple commercial applications, such as security systems, fire alarms, digital control systems, and many other types of industrial systems.
• The components can also be used in entertainment electronics, as well as consumer products like gaming consoles and audio-visual systems.
• As it is designed to withstand high ESD strikes, 5KP26C is also commonly used in telecommunication, automotive and other applications that require reliable surge protection.

Working Principle of 5KP26C TVS - Diodes

5KP26C is a single-directional TVS (Transient Vape Suppressors) diode used for protection against overvoltage. It is mainly formed with a PN junction diode for overvoltage protection. The PN junction diode for 5KP26C stands for two different materials N (negative) and P (positive). When excess voltage is applied to the diode, the PN junction creates a high resistance and prevents current flow. When the environment contains highly conductive energy like lightning, the voltage on the 5KP26C\'s terminals increases as the lightning energy crosses the junction. This causes an avalanche of electrons from the N to the P material, resulting in an inhibited current flow. The 5KP26C dissipates the energy to a safe level and protects the electronic system from damage.

Conclusion

This article has discussed the 5KP26C application field and working principle. 5KP26C is a unidirectional TVS diode designed for industrial, automotive, telecom and other applications including security systems, fire alarms, digital control systems, and more. They operate by creating a high resistance and preventing current flow when excess voltage is applied. Thanks to its avalanche of electrons mechanism, 5KP26C prevents damage from overvoltage, lightning, ESD and other highly conductive energy.
