TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) diodes are used widely used to protect sensitive electronic components from damage due to voltage spikes and other sudden surges in voltage. The M5KP22CA is a TVS diode designed for protection applications in low voltage, low noise circuits. This diode has an operating voltage of 200V, and is capable of up to 525mA of peak pulse current.

Application Field

The M5KP22CA is suitable for applications where protection from high voltage transients is needed, such as automotive equipment, digital cameras, and other handheld equipment. The diode provides EMI/ESD (electromagnetic interference/electrostatic discharge) protection up to 15kV. It also features a four-pin package with an integrated zener diode for ESD noise reduction.

Working Principle

The M5KP22CA diode uses a four-zone (avalanche) principle to protect against transient overvoltage. When a voltage spike occurs, the diode may be triggered into operation. In the triggered mode, the diode begins to conduct current, creating a low forward voltage drop. This action greatly reduces the overvoltage to a safe level.

The M5KP22CA diode also features an integrated zener diode that helps to reduce ESD noise. This diode is designed to turn on at a low current level (in the microampere range) and conduct current away from sensitive components while dissipating the ESD noise.

The M5KP22CA diode also features a dielectric absorption feature. This feature helps to absorb extra voltage spikes above and beyond the triggering voltage of the main diode. This feature helps protect sensitive components from extreme overvoltage conditions.

Overall, the M5KP22CA diode is a reliable and efficient protection device, providing effective protection from transient voltage surges and ESD noise. Its integrated features make it a great choice for a variety of low-voltage protection applications.
