TVS (transient voltage suppressors) diodes are semiconductor devices which are especially useful for preventing short-term surges over-voltage from damaging delicate electronics, and in this article we’ll be taking a look at the application field and working principles of the CD214C-T8.0CALF TVS diode.

The CD214C-T8.0CALF TVS diode is well suited for use in industrial and communications Electronics, and any other places where transient protection is needed, such as for the protection against surges from lightning, switched loads, and electrostatic discharges. In addition, it can also be used to help protect against incorrect connections to DC power sources.

This TVS diode has a maximum operating temperature of 125°C and can handle voltages up to 8.0kV. It has a low junction capacitance of around 4.3pF, which is useful for reducing the noise and providing protection from high-frequency transients. The part also features an anti-corrosion finish to help protect the contacts from environmental damage.

The working principle of the CD214C-T8.0CALF is fairly simple. At normal levels of operation, the TVS diode acts as an open circuit, allowing current to flow freely. However, when an over-voltage spike occurs, the diode quickly switches on and redirects the surge current. This suppresses the voltage spike and prevents it from damaging the components.

The diode is designed to quickly respond to any over-voltage spikes in an exceptionally short time. In fact, it can protect against spikes of less than 10 nanoseconds. It also makes use of a special breakdown technique to ensure that the leakage current is kept to a minimum after the voltage surge has been suppressed. This helps to minimise power dissipation and maximises the component’s life.

The CD214C-T8.0CALF also has a wide operating temperature range from -40°C to 125°C, making it suitable for use in a variety of applications. The device is also compact and does not require a heatsink to dissipate the heat generated during operation. This makes it ideal for applications where space is at a premium.

In summary, the CD214C-T8.0CALF TVS diode is an excellent choice for a range of applications where transient protection is needed. It is designed to operate in a wide range of conditions, and is capable of offering exceptional protection from over-voltage spikes. It is also small and highly reliable, making it ideal for use in a variety of applications.
