TVS - Diodes: Introduction

Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS) diodes, also known as Transient Voltage Surge Suppressors, are a type of semiconductor diode that are used to protect electronic components from voltage transients which are characterized by short duration high-voltage surges. They are typically used in circuits to protect against the effects of over-voltage transients that can occur in a circuit either due to switching transients, load dump transients, or lightning strikes. TVS diodes are capable of withstanding high-peak reverse voltages and can clamp down on differential voltage transients. TVS diodes are available in a number of packages and sizes, and are designed to be used in a wide range of voltages.

JANTX1N6462US: Application Field and Working Principle

The JANTX1N6462US is a surface mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) Diode manufactured by Vishay. It is designed for use in power supply and power line applications, such as personal computers, servers, and gaming consoles. The device is capable of withstanding high-peak reverse voltages from 22V to 160V and can clamp down on differential voltage transients, providing an excellent level of voltage protection. The JANTX1N6462US is an avalanche diode, meaning it can conduct when the PN junction is at breakdown. This allows it to dissipate the energy resulting from a surge without experiencing permanent degradation.

In normal operation, the JANTX1N6462US is not conductive. However, when a positive or negative voltage transient occurs, the device is designed to conduct, allowing the current to pass through the diode and dissipate the resulting energy without damaging the protected components. The device is capable of handling surges with peak energies of up to 2A2s and is designed for use in military, commercial, and industrial applications.

Conclusion

The JANTX1N6462US is a surface mount diode from Vishay, designed for use in power supply and power line applications. It is capable of withstanding high-peak reverse voltages from 22V to 160V and offers excellent protection against over-voltage transients. It can handle surges with peak energies of up to 2A2s and is designed for use in military, commercial, and industrial applications.
