TVS (transient voltage suppressor, or transient voltage suppressor diode) is a type of diode designed to protect other devices in the circuit from voltage spikes that exceed a certain predefined value. They are often used in sensitive electronic circuits and provide a low-resistance barrier between the power supply and the logic circuitry, preventing voltage spikes from destroying components. The GSOT04C-E3-18 is a TVS diode that is used to provide circuit protection when working with voltages up to 18 volts.

The GSOT04C-E3-18 is a bi-directional TVS diode that is designed to protect both the power supply and the logic circuitry by clamping and dissipating the voltage surge before it reaches the high voltage edge of the logic circuits. This diode is able to protect a variety of applications from overvoltage and undervoltage transients, including computers, printers, modems, digital cameras and other electronic devices. The diode features a low clamping voltage and is able to withstand a wide range of operating temperatures, from -55C to 150C.

In addition to its low voltage protection capabilities, the GSOT04C-E3-18 offers a range of other features. It has a low capacitance value, which helps reduce the excessive coupling of noise between high-frequency signals. The diode also offers an excellent response time of only 25 nanoseconds. The relatively high peak pulse current rating of 5.3A will protect the device from thermal and current overloads.

The working principle of the GSOT04C-E3-18 is based on the principle of a Zener diode. When the transient voltage spikes above the set threshold, the diode will act as a rectifier and begin conducting current. This will reduce the voltage to a predetermined clamping voltage that is safely tolerated by the logic circuitry. The current then is diverted through the diode’s internal resistance, which will dissipate the associated excess energy as heat.

The GSOT04C-E3-18 can be used in a variety of application fields. Some of the most common applications include surge protectors, overvoltage protection circuits, uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems, data communication systems and embedded systems. It can also be used in automotive systems to provide protection against transient voltage surges caused by load dumps, electromagnetic interference (EMI) and electrostatic discharge (ESD).

The GSOT04C-E3-18 is an ideal choice for providing circuit protection in a variety of applications and operating environments. With its low voltage protection capabilities and fast response time, it is capable of protecting sensitive logic circuitry from transients and other hazards. Its robust design ensures reliable performance at temperature ranges of -55C to 150C, making it an excellent choice for a wide variety of applications.
