EPS28 Circuit Protection

TVS - Diodes

Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) Diodes are the widely accepted components for protecting against transient voltage. These devices are of great importance for systems that require a reliable defense against transient voltage because their fast-acting nature is more suited for highly variable situations. TVS Diodes are known for their low clamping voltage and excellent performance. Some of the most common applications for TVS Diodes include high-speed communication equipment, computers, switch-mode power supplies, protection against lightening and electrical transients, aerospace and automotive electronics.

EPS28 Application Field and Working Principle

The EPS28 is a multilayer diode that has been designed to provide excellent protection against high energy pulse. It is capable of withstanding high peak and peak currents and can absorb several hundred joules of energy. The device has an operating temperature range of -55° to 125°C and the maximum voltage rating is 14V. The highest peak pulse power allowed is 40W.

The EPS28 is a fast responding diode that can react to the transient pulse in less than 1ms. The device has a low clamping voltage rating which allows it to clamp the transient voltage at a lower level than a regular diode. The fast response of this device means it can protect against electricity transients that occur during surges in power. The device also has a very low capacitance, which means it will cause minimal interference with any voltage regulators it is connected to.

The EPS28 diode can be used in a variety of different applications. It is commonly used in switch-mode power supplies, electrical and automotive electronics, and data communications. The fast response time of the device makes it ideal for protecting against transients found in these applications. The device also has low power consumption and is very reliable, making it perfect for any type of volatile environment.

The working principle of the EPS28 is quite simple and is based on the voltage clamping and energy absorbing capabilities of the multilayer diode. When a transient voltage is applied to the diode, electrons in the junction recombine and release energy through radiation. This energy is used to absorb and dissipate a large amount of power, thus ‘clamping’ the transient voltage.

The EPS28 is a great option for anyone looking to protect their system from the threats posed by transient voltage. Its fast response time, low capacitance, and high power rating make it an excellent choice for applications that require reliable protection.
