D3V3L1B2LP3-7 Circuit Protection

TVS - Diodes

Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS) is a type of diode designed to protect electronic circuits from voltage spikes caused by electrostatic discharge (ESD), Electric Load Dump (ELD), inductive load switching and lightning. A TVS diode, also known as a transient voltage suppressor, fast-response unidirectional device, is a diode designed to protect an electrical circuit from over-voltage transients, usually caused by lightning or electrostatic discharge. They are available in a range of voltage ratings from one to more than a hundred volts.

The D3V3L1B2LP3-7 is a small energy unidirectional TVS diode with an active junction protection design. This type of TVS diode is mainly used for applications with space constraints such as portable electronics, automotive industry and other general consumer electronics. This device is capable of handling high-voltage transients without any external components, which makes it an ideal choice for these applications.

Application Field and Working Principle

The D3V3L1B2LP3-7 is especially suitable for applications with tight space constraints because it is very small and allows for the use of standard PCB layouts. The device has a maximum working voltage of 6.0V and can handle up to 4.5A of current. As a result, it is ideal for applications that require protection against transient voltage such as automotive, power supplies, industrial control, medical devices and other consumer electronics.

The main difference between this TVS diode and other types of TVS diodes is the active clamping design. This design works by using an active component that clamps the voltage to a specific level, even when it is above the normal working voltage. This active clamping feature allows the TVS diode to protect circuits from higher voltage spikes and minimize circuit noise.

The D3V3L1B2LP3-7TVS diode also has a very low minimum breakdown voltage of 1.6V. This means that the device can quickly detect a spike from 1.6V and start clamping the voltage to a much lower level. This feature ensures that the device can protect circuits from surges before they become catastrophic.

The D3V3L1B2LP3-7 also has an excellent ESD protection capability, meaning it can handle high-speed transients that occur during electrostatic discharge events. The device is also resistant to temperature and humidity changes, which makes it an ideal choice for applications that operate in harsh environments.

In addition to ESD protection, the D3V3L1B2LP3-7 is also designed to protect against power surges, which can cause catastrophic failure. The device is capable of clamping the voltage to a level below its rated value, ensuring protection against these types of power surges. Additionally, the device is designed to reduce low-voltage ringing, which is common in electrical circuits.

The D3V3L1B2LP3-7 is an ideal choice for applications with limited space, high performance requirements and harsh operating conditions. The device’s active clamping design and excellent ESD protection make it an ideal solution for protecting circuits from transient voltage. Additionally, its low minimum breakdown voltage and power surge protection capabilities make it suitable for a wide variety of applications.
