5KP75A-G

Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS) are used to quickly protect circuits against sudden, unwanted voltage transients or spikes. They function as voltage-controlled current-limiting devices that conduct large fault currents only when the voltage transient exceeds a device\'s peak power dissipation rating. 5KP75A-G is a TVS device used to block and limit extremely short duration voltage transients.

The 5KP75A-G is a unidirectional TVS diode that is designed to protect sensitive circuits against large ESD pulses and short power transients. This device is used in high speed communication lines, computer circuits and industrial systems. It is available in two types: glass-passivated chips or high-energy, high-energy transient suppression chips.

The 5KP75A-G can be used as a single-channel protection device or in pairs to provide high current protection. It can also be connected in series for higher voltage protection or in parallel for higher current protection. It has an operating voltage of 75 volts and a peak pulse power of 5,000 watts. The devices are robust and rated for a wide temperature range and have been tested to meet the requirements of IEC 61000-4-5 international standard for surge current and peak pulse power.

The 5KP75A-G operates by providing a very quick clamping of the voltage between the anode and cathode. Once activated, the device rapidly conducts away high energy pulses that occur on the data and power line. The attachment of the current-limiting diode decreases the stored charge that is initially present at the protected node and thus maintains fast response times. The device also has the ability to self-regulate its performance over operating temperature and voltage conditions.

The 5KP75A-G is designed to provide fast response time, low leakage current, and a robust design. This makes it ideal for use in high-speed data communication circuits as it can respond quickly to large transient surges and maintain high pulse power ratings. It is also suitable for use in a wide range of industrial systems due to its robust design. Additionally, the device is rated to withstand a wide temperature range, which makes it suitable for use in extreme environments.

In summary, the 5KP75A-G is a unidirectional TVS diode designed to protect sensitive circuits against large ESD pulses and short power transients. It is available in two types: glass-passivated chips or high-energy transient suppression chips. It is suitable for use in high-speed data communication circuits and industrial systems due to its fast response time, low leakage current and robust design.
