Introduction to TVS Diodes and the CD214L-T17ALF

A transient voltage suppression (TVS) diode is a form of protection device used to protect electronic circuits against voltage transients (such as lightning strikes or electrostatic discharge, ESD) and other forms of overvoltage which, if left unchecked, could cause damage to the circuit in question. The CD214L-T17ALF is a TVS diode which can be used for a variety of applications in design and engineering involving large voltage transients.

TVS Diodes

TVS diodes use a variety of technologies, including avalanche breakdown (ABD), Zener breakdown, and modified symmetric unidirectional breakover (MSUB). Depending on the type of diode and its technology, TVS diodes can be used for a variety of applications, including limiting device transients, switching suppressors, signal line protectors, ESD protectors, and lightning protectors.

What is the CD214L-T17ALF

The CD214L-T17ALF is a compact, easy-to-use TVS diode which can be used in a wide range of applications. It is designed to protect against a wide range of voltage transients from 12V all the way up to 24V. The CD214L-T17ALF is constructed from a small surface mount package, making it ideal for integration into circuit boards. It is also designed for excellent ESD protection, with an electrostatic discharge (ESD) classification of 15 kilovolts (kV).

Working Principle

The CD214L-T17ALF works by allowing a small amount of current to pass through it when it is subjected to a large voltage transient. The diode then rapidly reduces the current in order to protect the connected device or component from damage. When the voltage returns to normal levels, the diode switches off and allows the current to flow normally again. This process, known as limiting or crowbarring, prevents potentially damaging levels of current flowing through the circuit, and keeps the voltage to a safe and acceptable level.

Applications of the CD214L-T17ALF

The CD214L-T17ALF has a variety of applications in areas which require protection from large voltage transients. These applications include automotive systems, industrial equipment, robotics, medical equipment, as well as consumer electronics such as TVs, computers, audio equipment, telephone systems, gaming consoles, and more.The CD214L-T17ALF can also be used in applications where reliability is essential in order to prevent catastrophic failure from occurring. This includes systems such as aircraft, engineer and military applications, where the risk of serious harm and damage is a real possibility.

Conclusion

The CD214L-T17ALF is a valuable protection device which can be used in a multitude of applications. Its small size makes it perfect for integration into circuit boards, and its ESD rating of 15kV makes it an excellent choice for applications where ESD protection is essential. Due to its ability to limit dangerous levels of voltage, the CD214L-T17ALF is a valuable tool which can be used to protect a circuit against potentially damaging voltage transients.
