TVS - Diodes

A TVS or Transient Voltage Suppressor Diode is an electronic device that protects components, circuits and systems from over voltage caused by external or internal sources. The device is designed to rapidly respond to changes in the voltage source and provide circuit protection for data lines and other circuits. In this article, the BZW04P13HE3/54 TVS diode and its application field and working principle will be discussed.

Application Field

The BZW04P13HE3/54 is a unidirectional TVS diode, designed for the protection of data-lines and other sensitive devices from electrostatic discharges, voltage transients and surges such as lightning. It is commonly used in automotive and datacom applications, such as Bluetooth and ISM systems. The device is also suitable for industrial, telecommunications, and consumer electronics.

Working Principle

The BZW04P13HE3/54 is a voltage regulating diode (VRD) which works by diverting the current flow to reduce the voltage. It essentially works as a variable resistor – as the voltage is increased, the resistance is automatically adjusted accordingly to protect the electronic circuit. When the voltage reaches a certain point, the diode rapidly reduces the cycling current and diverts it away from the system, effectively protecting the circuit.

The diode is designed with a back-to-back zener pair for higher surge and spike protection. The zener pair acts like two diodes in series, and causes the current to change direction when the voltage is reduced to a certain reverse voltage. This ensures that current is diverted away from system, reducing the damage caused by overvoltage.

The device is rated to reduce surge currents up to 17A and clamp voltages up to 18V. It also features low capacitance, low dynamic resistance and low leakage current. All of these factors ensure that the device is highly sensitive and can accurately protect electronic circuits from over voltage conditions.

Conclusion

The BZW04P13HE3/54 is TVS diode that can be used for the protection of electronic circuits from over voltage conditions. It is designed with a back-to-back zener pair which rapidly changes the direction of the current when the voltage is reduced to a certain point, thereby protecting the system from surges and spikes. The device is suitable for a range of applications, including automotive, datacom, industrial, telecommunications, and consumer electronics.
