A TVS or Transient Voltage Suppressor (also known as a surge suppressor) is a protective device used to safeguard circuits from transient voltage (i.e. voltage spikes due to lightning strikes, power surges, or electrostatic discharge). The most common TVS is the MA15KP240AE3. This particular model is designed to provide protection from transient voltage up to 24000 volts (V). It also features low dynamic resistance when the transient voltage is limited to a predetermined level.

The MA15KP240AE3 is a unidirectional device, meaning it is capable of only dissipating energy flowing in one direction. This is important for preventing damage to delicate electronic components that may be susceptible to voltage spikes. Additionally, the device offers a low maximum clamping voltage (VcMax) which helps to further protect components sensitive to high voltage levels.

The MA15KP240AE3 is a high-performance transient voltage suppressor that is suitable for wide range of applications in both industrial and commercial electronics. The device is commonly used for telecommunications installations, industrial equipment, consumer electronics, medical instruments, and automotive electronics. It is also often used to suppress surges in high-speed logic and controllers.

When it comes to its working principle, the MA15KP240AE3 utilises a sophisticated MultiLayered Varistor (MLV) technology. This MLV technology consists of a series of series-connected MOVs (Metal Oxide Varistors). Each MOV is connected to a pin of the device and is designed to dissipate the energy from transient voltages. The MOVs are also designed to provide optimal protection for over-voltages and induced surges in automotive, industrial and consumer electronics.

When a transient voltage occurs, the MLV technology is activated and begins to dissipate the energy. This energy enters the suppressor and is then split into two paths: one path leads to the load, and the other path leads directly to ground. This effectively shunts the voltage away from the device, preventing it from being damaged or destroyed. The device also features a special Valve Controlled MOV (VCM) that helps ensure the suppressor remains stable when higher voltage pulses are present.

The MA15KP240AE3 is an excellent choice for protecting electronics from transient voltage. Its MLV technology is highly effective and offers superior protection, while its low VcMax helps to further protect sensitive components. Additionally, it is suitable for a wide range of applications, making it an excellent all-around choice for protecting delicate electronics.
