TVS - Diodes Application Fields and Working Principles

TVS – Diodes, or transient voltage suppressors, are a type of semiconductors which are used to protect against voltage surges. These surges can be caused by anything from lightning strikes, static electricity, and power surges from power hardening systems. Such surges can greatly affect the performance and safety of electrical and electronic systems. TVS – Diodes are used to provide the protection needed against such surges.

Types of TVS – Diodes

There are two main types of TVS – Diodes available: unidirectional and bidirectional. Unidirectional TVS – Diodes are designed to protect from a single surge occurring in one direction only. Bidirectional TVS – Diodes are designed to protect from both positive and negative transient surge conditions.

5KP90CA-B TVS – Diode

The 5KP90CA-B is an example of a unidirectional TVS – Diode. It operates at a stand-off voltage of 5,000V, allowing it to protect against high voltage surges. This device is capable of sustaining 20A of surge current for 8.3ms, making it an ideal choice for applications where high surge protection is required.

Applications of the 5KP90CA-B

The 5KP90CA-B is used to protect automotive and industrial electronic systems. Examples of these include automobiles, industrial motor control systems, and industrial control systems. It is also used to protect telecommunications systems, computers, modems, and printers.

Working Principle of the 5KP90CA-B

The 5KP90CA-B operates by shorting the voltage spike to ground. It does this through the use of a fast acting avalanche diode. When the voltage spike reaches the stand-off voltage, this diode is quickly triggered into avalanche breakdown and shorts the voltage spike to ground. This action provides the necessary protection for the system.

Conclusion

The 5KP90CA-B TVS – Diode is a unidirectional device used to protect a range of electronic systems from transient voltage surges. It is capable of withstanding up to 20A of surge current when triggered and is used in a range of automotive and industrial applications. The device works by shorting the voltage spike to ground, providing the necessary protection to the system.
