TVS - Diodes

Transient voltage suppressor diodes, or simply TVS diodes, are purpose-built semiconductor devices that are designed to protect other electronic components and systems from electrical surges, or transients, in voltage levels. The 5KP60CA-G is a unidirectional TVS Diode that is designed to protect against transients on circuits with DC or AC operated loads. It is composed of 5KP silicon avalanche diodes, and provides reliable protection to highly integrated circuits that require ultra-low leakage current.

5KP60CA-G Application Field

The 5KP60CA-G is a silicon avalanche diode that is specifically designed for use in high surge applications. It is particularly well-suited for protecting sensitive electronic components such as microprocessors, memory chips, and opto-electronic devices from voltage spikes and transient voltages. It is also suitable for protecting against overvoltage on automotive, industrial, and communication systems like modems, routers, and power supplies.

Working Principle

The operating principle of the 5KP60CA-G is based on its Avalanche Voltage Reference (AVR) technology. When exposed to a reverse bias electric field, the diode is capable of developing a large voltage turn-on step without any appreciable increase in temperature. The voltage turn-on step of this device reduces the peak transient current and the surge energy transferred to the unprotected device or system. When the transient voltage passes the AVR threshold, it rapidly switches to an on-state and holds the transient energy, thereby providing excellent protection against transient spikes.

Conclusion

The 5KP60CA-G is a unidirectional silicon avalanche diode that provides reliable protection to highly integrated circuits that require ultra-low leakage current. It is designed for use in high surge applications, and is particularly well-suited for protecting sensitive electronic components from transient voltages. This device utilizes Avalanche Voltage Reference technology to rapidly switch to an on-state and hold the transient energy, providing excellent protection against transient spikes.
