Introduction

Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS) diodes are a line of semiconductor protection devices that are designed to protect vulnerable semiconductor components from transient voltages. A transient wave is caused when an electric current or voltage is suddenly increased by a high voltage pulse, typically by lightning, a nearby power surge, electrostatic discharge, and various other high-energy sources. The TVS diode is used to protect against damage caused by transients, by diverting the electrical energy away from the system and safely dissipating it. One such diode is the 5KP60CA-B TVS Diode.

Application Field

The 5KP60CA-B is designed to protect equipment from ESD and short-term overvoltage conditions. It can be used to protect against spikes up to 6.0 kV, and has a 5.0 kV rating. It\'s an excellent choice for protecting Automotive Engine Control, Automotive Infotainment, and Automotive Electronic Control Unit (ECU) systems from transients. It can also be used to protect Telecommunications, Industrial, and Computers, peripherals, and Automation equipment from over voltage damages.

Physical Attributes

The 5KP60CA-B is a Uni-Directional TVS Diode, with a small miniature DO-214AC package, making it especially compliant to board space limitations. The 55V zener voltage rating of the 5KP60CA-B means it can suppress well in a 6.0 kV ESD environment. It\'s a fast responding diode, with a maximum clamping voltage of 10.5 V, and a turn-on time of 6.5 ns with a 1.0 nano-second risetime. It has an IEC 61000-4-2 Contact ESD rating of 8 kV, and an IEC 6100-4-4 Airgap ESD rating of 20 kV, and a transient power rating of 500 Watts.

Working Principle

The 5KP60CA-B TVS Diode works by diverting the electrical energy away from the vulnerable semiconductor device and redirecting it to a safe location. It does this by clamping the excess voltage and current to a safe level until the wave has passed. The diode is built with a valley breakdown element, a positive temperature coefficient (PTC), and a diode catcher element. When the overload energy is detected by the valley breakdown element, its PTC acts to dissipate the excess energy. The diode increases its resistance as the temperature rises, thus limiting the current and preventing further damage to the device. The diode then returns to its original state once the energy has dissipated.

Conclusion

The 5KP60CA-B TVS Diode is a reliable and cost-effective solution to protecting vulnerable electronics from damage caused by transient overvoltages and ESD. It\'s a great choice for applications such as Automotive, Telecommunications, Industrial, and Computers, peripherals, and Automation equipment. Its small package and fast response time are major advantages, making it a great choice for any size application. The 5KP60CA-B provides protection without compromising performance, making it an ideal choice for providing efficient and dependable protection from transient sources.
