CD214C-T45ALF

CD214C-T45ALF is one of the Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS) Diodes, which are a type of protection circuit. TVS diodes are a type of semiconductor circuit elements widely used in all kinds of highly sensitive electronics systems, like communication systems, computer systems, control systems, and automotive systems. This TVS Diode is specially optimized for use in Automotive Load Dump applications to protect circuits from spikes and surges. It can also help to prevent high voltage transients and ESD (electro-static discharge) events.

CD214C-T45ALF is a low capacitance, unidirectional diode. It has an operating voltage of 45V and a peak pulse power of 2000W. This diode is rated to ± 15KV ESD and ± 30A surge current. It also comes with a very low-capacitance of 0.2pF. The low capacitance allows it to provide high-speed switching in the most sensitive electronics applications.

This TVS diode features a low stand-off voltage, and fast response time for protection against transient voltage and ESD. It offers fast response time so that there is little impact on the original signal. The low-capacitance also helps reduce switch malfunction due to high-speed transitions. It also has a low peak pulse power rating of 2000W, meaning it can withstand heavy load and surge voltage events without burning out.

CD214C-T45ALF has multiple applications in automotive and industrial environments. It can protect computer equipment, transistors, and integrated circuits from transients, ESD, and heavy load. It can also be used in audio and video equipment such as televisions, VCRs, and DVD players. Additionally, this diode can be used to protect high-speed data lines, PCBs, and power circuits from transient over-voltage events.

The working principle of CD214C-T45ALF is based on the P-N junction structure. When a voltage spike or surge exceeds the normal working voltage of the component, the P-side of the diode will quickly conduct and allow the surge to pass through the diode and dissipate it safely. The N-side of the diode is responsible for limiting the flow of current to a safe level. The N-side will act as a clamp and prevent the excessive surge voltage from damaging the component.

CD214C-T45ALF is an excellent choice for protecting sensitive electronics from transient voltage and ESD events. It has an operating voltage of 45V, a low-capacitance of 0.2pF, and a peak pulse power rating of 2000W. With its fast response time, low stand-off voltage, and highly durable construction, this diode can protect electronics from over-voltage events and maintain its functionality in the most demanding environments.
