Introduction

The B72214S151K501 is a type of TVS - Varistors, MOVs that is widely applied in a variety of electronic components. It is designed to provide protection from current surges and voltage movements in different circuits.

Application field

B72214S151K501 is mainly used in two application fields: overvoltage protection and inrush current limiting. For overvoltage protection, it is widely used in consumer electronics, like TVs, computers, routers, DVD players, music players, etc. It is also used in other electronic components, such as electric motors, current transformers, power converters, and power supplies. For inrush current limiting, it is applied to protect motors, electrical equipment, and certain sensitive components.

Applications of the B72214S151K501 are mainly divided into two categories: high-current protection and soft-start protection. For high-current protection, it is used to provide protection to the electrical circuits from short circuits, load drops and other overcurrents. In addition, it also helps to reduce the power consumption and thus, prolong the lifespan of the electrical circuits. For soft-start protection, it is used to reduce the temporary current required for starting a motor.

Working principle

The B72214S151K501 is a form of TVS - Varistors, MOVs that uses varistors (metal-oxide varistors) to achieve its functionality. Varistors are nonlinear electronic components whose resistance value changes with the applied voltage.

When the applied voltage is below the rated voltage range, the varistor will have a high resistance. This ensures that no current will pass through the varistor. However, when the applied voltage exceeds the rated voltage range, the varistor’s resistance decreases and a current will pass through it. The current will then be dissipated through the connected components.

This is also where the soft-start protection comes in. When the varistors’ resistance is low, the current will be moderate and slowly increase as the electrical components connected to the varistors become energized. This will allow the motor to start up gently, thus reducing the amount of current surge.

The B72214S151K501 is also capable of handling high-frequency surges in the circuit. This is achieved by using its high-frequency diodes, which limit the flow of high-frequency currents.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the B72214S151K501 is a type of TVS - Varistors, MOVs mainly used for overvoltage protection and inrush current limiting application fields. It utilizes varistors for its protection, allowing it to dissipate the current when the voltage reaches a certain threshold. Moreover, it is also capable of handling high-frequency surges through the use of its high-frequency diodes.
