TVS diodes are special types of diodes designed to protect electronic circuits from damage due to overvoltage transients. They are commonly used in many applications where excessive voltage spikes occur, such as automotive electronics, avionics, industrial electronics, and telecommunications. One such diode is the LC18A TVS diode, which is a three-terminal device that provides protection against technologically induced overvoltage transients.
An LC18A TVS diode consists of a piezoresistive chip with three terminals consisting of an anode, a cathode and a common terminal. The anode is connected to the source of the overvoltage and the cathode is connected to the load. The common terminal is connected to the gate terminal of the chip and is responsible for controlling the current passing through the diode. The diode is designed to protect any electronic device from destructive overvoltages and transients by acting as a low-impedance path between the anode and the cathode.
The LC18A\'s working principle is quite simple. When an overvoltage transient occurs, the voltage across the diode rises above its turn-on voltage, causing current to conduct through the diode. This current generates a change in voltage between the anode and the gate of the chip, triggering the device\'s protection mechanisms and shunting the current safely away from the device. This protects the device from further damage due to overvoltage transients.
The LC18A is most commonly used in automotive applications, avionics, and industrial electronics, but it can also be used in a variety of other applications. It can be used in cellular phones and other handheld devices to protect them from electrostatic discharge, and it can be used in LCD screens and monitors to protect them from lightning strikes. It can also be used in high-powered switching applications such as motor drives, LEDs, and Servo motors.
In addition, the LC18A is also a popular choice for automotive applications. It is commonly used to protect automobiles from the effects of thermal shock, high-voltage transients created by lightning strikes, and other electrical hazards. It is also used to protect motorcycles, tractors, and other motor vehicles from electrical damage due to overvoltage transients.
In summary, the LC18A is a three-terminal device that provides protection against overvoltage transients. It operates by generating a change in voltage between the anode and the gate of the chip in response to overvoltage transients, triggering its protection mechanisms and shunting any excessive current safely away from the device. It is commonly used in automotive, avionics, industrial electronics, and other applications to protect them from electrical damage due to high-voltage transients.
