TVS - Diodes are an essential part of the electronic device technology. Usually, they are employed to protect the connected components from electric surges. The 5KP78A-G is specially designed for transient voltage protection that helps in protecting voltage-sensitive components and equipment. This device is an uni-directional Transient Voltage Suppression device designed to protect sensitive equipment from high transients or electrical surges.

5KP78A-G offers an extremely comprehensive protection including ESD protection, EFT protection, and Perforation protection. It is designed to reduce surge voltage by providing direct shunting to ground and has a protection capability up to 5000 Volts. It can also be employed as a protective device for applications such as LED illumination controllers, power supplies, displays, and automotive, industrial, and telecom equipment.

The 5KP78A-G TVS Diode is used in various applications and is designed to withstand voltage between 8 Volts to 5K Volts while maintaining a low biasing voltage of 5 Volts. It has a low junction capacitance which is why it is known as a Low Capacitance Clamping device and also has a low clamping voltage. This ensures protection level up to 8 times the 8V breakdown voltage of the device.

The 5KP78A-G operates on the principle of avalanche breakdown phenomenon. It occurs when the current through a large junction of silicon gets high enough to breakdown the barrier and trigger an avalanche effect. During this process, the voltage across the diode decreases dramatically, thus providing an over-voltage protection. This device also has a built-in positive temperature coefficient (PTC) that helps in maintaining the reliability of the circuit by limiting the maximum amount of current through the junction.

The 5KP78A-G device is particularly useful in those applications where the protection devices have to be external. Its over-voltage protection and low capacitance clamping voltage makes it suitable for many applications such as over-voltage protection of LED illumination controllers, power supplies, displays, and automotive, industrial, and telecom equipment. This device is also highly reliable and is UL Recognized.

In conclusion, the 5KP78A-G TVS Diode is an essential part of the circuit protection and is most suitable for protecting sensitive equipment from high transients or electrical surges. It is highly reliable and economical device that offers an extremely comprehensive protection. It is designed to reduce surge voltage by providing direct shunting to ground and has a protection capability up to 5000 Volts. This device is widely used in various applications such as LED illumination controllers, power supplies, displays, and automotive, industrial, and telecom equipment.
