TVS - Diodes

A transient voltage suppression diode (TVS) is a device used to protect circuits from excessive voltage levels that can arise from surges in voltage across an electrical system. These diodes are designed to absorb the excess voltage and to provide protection to sensitive components on the board.

5KP36-E3/73 Application Field and Working Principle

The 5KP36-E3/73 is a unidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) Diode. This type of diode is used to protect components in an electrical system from overvoltage and high impulse voltage. It acts as a protective barrier against the sudden increase and decrease in input or output voltages.

The 5KP36-E3/73 diode has a bidirectional breakdown voltage of 5.0KV which makes it ideal for applications where a higher voltage is needed to protect from overvoltage or transients. When an overvoltage situation occurs, it will conduct up to 5.0KV without causing any significant increase in the current flowing through the circuit. The diode has a fast response time and is able to handle high current loads. The thermal resistance is also low, making it suitable for temperature sensitive applications. Additionally, the diode has an operating temperature range of -55C to +150C, making it suitable for a wide range of electrical applications.

The main working principle of this diode is that when an excessive voltage difference is experienced, the diode will act like a shunt in the circuit and allow current to flow through the diode, thus reducing the effect of the overvoltage on sensitive components on the board. This will help to protect these components from damage. Additionally, the diode will dissipate the excessive energy in the form of heat, thereby avoiding any potential damage to the board.

In conclusion, the 5KP36-E3/73 is an ideal protection mechanism for electrical systems where overvoltage and transients are a concern. It has a bidirectional breakdown voltage of 5.0KV, making it suitable for both high current and temperature sensitive applications. The diode provides a responsive solution to overvoltage protection and helps to safeguard sensitive components from potential damage.
