TVS - Diodes

Transient Voltage Suppression (TVS) Diodes are a type of semiconductor device used to protect electrical components such as integrated circuits from damage caused by high voltage transients. 5KP7.0A-E3/73 is a common TVS Diode with 1500W peak pulse power, 7.0 volts reverse stand-off voltage and a breakdown voltage of 5.5V.

Application Field of 5KP7.0A-E3/73

TVS Diodes are used whenever a circuit\'s components need protection from electrical disturbances. 5KP7.0A-E3/73 is mainly used in applications such as automotive, telecom & datacom devices, consumer electronics and industrial electronics. They are designed to protect against electro-static discharges (ESD), i.e. by suppressing ESD events with the help of a TVS Diode.

Working Principle of 5KP7.0A-E3/73

When a transient voltage pulse occurs, the current entering the TVS Diode will cause the voltage on the anode to rise above the breakdown voltage. This causes the diode to switch on. This will draw additional current through the diode, reducing the voltage on the anode with respect to the cathode. The resultant reduction in voltage reduces or eliminates the effect of the transient voltage.

Once the voltage across the TVS Diode is reduced to a safe level, it turns off and the diode will return to its non-conductive state. This protects the delicate circuit components from further damage and ensures the circuit continues to operate normally.

Conclusion

The 5KP7.0A-E3/73 Transient Voltage Suppression (TVS) Diode is a commonly used diode which provides protection for circuits against electrical disturbances like electro-static discharges (ESD). Generally, it is used in automotive, telecom & datacom devices, consumer electronics and industrial electronics.
