TVS - Diodes

A TVS (Transient Voltage Suppression) diode is a device specifically designed to limit transient voltage spikes. Transient electricity, such as a lightning strike or surge in the power line, can cause significant damage to sensitive components in electronic equipment. TVS diodes can be used to protect these components from excessive voltage and current. The GSOT36C–G3–18 is an example of a TVS diode that can be used for this purpose.

Application fields

TVS diodes are widely used in a variety of applications. They can be used to protect components in telecommunication systems, power supplies, computer systems, and consumer electronics. In particular, the GSOT36C–G3–18 is suitable for automotive applications, as it offers high capacitance, very low leakage current, and a wide operating temperature range. It can also be used in power supply applications, as it is highly resistant to surge voltages and circuitry transients.

Working principle

TVS diodes are unidirectional components, meaning they will only conduct in one direction. When a voltage spike occurs, the diode is quickly switched on, allowing the current to flow in its forward direction. Once the voltage within the components returns to normal, the TVS diode is reversed biased and quickly switched off. This process happens in just a few nanoseconds and helps to protect the components from damage.The GSOT36C–G3–18 is designed with low capacitance and high surge capability in mind. It is based on an epitaxial design and has a breakdown voltage of 18V. It is capable of handling transient overloads of up to 40A in an automatic mode recovery time of 1.5 nanoseconds.

Advantages

TVS diodes are highly effective at protecting sensitive components from transient voltages. They are cheap, readily available, and easy to install. They are also resistant to temperature and humidity, and have a long service life. The GSOT36C–G3–18 is particularly suited for automotive applications, as it can withstand high operating temperature and surge voltage levels.

Conclusion

TVS diodes are invaluable components for protecting sensitive components from transient voltage spikes. The GSOT36C–G3–18 is a perfect example of a TVS diode specifically designed for automotive applications, as it offers high capacitance, low leakage current, and a wide operating temperature range. Its ability to handle transient overloads and provide a fast recovery time make it an excellent choice for protecting sensitive components in telecommunication systems, power supplies, computer systems, and other consumer electronics.
