TVS stands for Transient Voltage Suppressor, which is a type of diode designed to protect circuits from transient voltages that can cause damage. The CD214C-T8.5ALF is an industry-standard TVS diode from Central Semiconductor offering excellent protection against high-energy-pulse transient and surge-voltage overshoots.

The CD214C-T8.5ALF is designed to provide 500W of peak pulse power dissipation, with an 8.5 volts peak reverse working voltage. It has an excellent transient response, with typical response times of less than 1 nanosecond—1/1000 of a microsecond. This makes it perfect for a wide range of applications, where a fast response to transient voltages is essential.

One of the primary applications of the CD214C-T8.5ALF is in communication systems, where it is used to prevent damage from high-energy-pulse transients and surge overshoots. In a typical communication system, the CD214C-T8.5ALF is placed across the data lines in order to protect the interface circuit and transceivers from potential damage. It is often used in combination with other protection components, such as varistors or capacitors, to provide a comprehensive surge protection system.

The CD214C-T8.5ALF also has numerous automotive applications. It can be used in a variety of powertrain, engine, and safety system applications, as well as in anti-skidding and airbag systems. Its fast response time also makes it ideal for airbag deployment systems, where it can protect the system from transients caused by airbag inflators.

The CD214C-T8.5ALF is also commonly used for general-purpose high-energy-pulse transient protection. It can be used to protect circuits from voltage spikes and transients caused by lightning, power grid fluctuations, or motor start-up transients. Its fast response time and excellent transient protection make it suitable for a wide range of applications.

The working principle of the CD214C-T8.5ALF is relatively simple. In use, when a transient voltage is applied, the CD214C-T8.5ALF rapidly conducts current to reduce the voltage to an acceptable level. This is achieved by allowing current to flow from the anode to the cathode until the voltage reaches the peak reverse working voltage, which is 8.5V in the case of this particular device. The transient energy is then dissipated in the form of heat, while the voltage is clamped to a safe level.

In summary, the CD214C-T8.5ALF is a versatile, high-performance television suppression diode. It is designed for use in communication systems, automotive applications, and general-purpose high-energy-pulse transient protection applications. It is capable of providing fast response times and excellent transient protection, thanks to its 500W peak pulse power dissipation capability and 8.5V peak reverse working voltage.
