The MA5KP17A is a component of the TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) diode range of products. It is a low-power, low-capacitance, two-terminal over-voltage protection device designed to reduce the transient voltages present on sensitive circuits. The MA5KP17A is well suited for frequency operations up to 5 GHz and for relatively low power applications up to 2 Watts.

The MA5KP17A is commonly used in applications which require protection from transient voltage spikes or over-voltage transients. These include a wide range of automotive, telecom, military, medical and industrial applications among others. It is particularly useful in protecting sensitive analog and digital ICs, IP phones, DSL modems, USB ports, automotive systems, test & measurement equipment and other sensitive high-speed and low-noise circuits.

The primary working principle of the MA5KP17A is simple yet effective: it works as a protection device by clamping the voltage between its two terminals if it exceeds a certain threshold value. In case of excessive voltage, the device will clamp the voltage level, allowing it to safely pass through without damaging the components connected to it. This protects any connected circuitry from destruction due to over-voltage surges and transients.

The MA5KP17A offers excellent protection in a wide range of situations, while also offering a wide operating temperature range of -40~+125 degrees Celsius. It also features a low clamping voltage, low-capacitance for high frequency applications, and excellent repeatability in the protection element. With a compact SMT package, the device offers cost-effective, low-power protection for sensitive electronics which require reliable over-voltage protection.

In summary, the MA5KP17A is a low-power, low-capacitance, two-terminal over-voltage protection device which forms a part of the TVS diode range of products. It is utilised in many automotive, telecom, medical and industrial applications which require protection from transient voltage spikes or over-voltage transients. The device works by clamping the voltage between its two terminals when it exceeds a certain threshold value, allowing it to safely pass through without damaging the connected components. It features a wide operating temperature range, low-capacitance for high frequency applications, excellent repeatability in the protection element and a cost-effective SMT package.
