MAP4KE7.5CAE3

TVS diodes were designed to protect sensitive electronics from damaging transient voltages. This protection, or clamping, is accomplished by utilizing a reverse-biased diode, triggering at a voltage that is set well below the breakdown voltage of the component being protected. The MAP4KE7.5CAE3 is a high quality, high performance transient voltage suppression (TVS) diode designed to protect any electronic devices from transient voltage spikes.

Application Field

The MAP4KE7.5CAE3 is a general purpose diode for TVS protection. It is designed and used for applications such as over-voltage circuitry protection of other electronic components in TVs, personal computers, laptops, digital home appliances, electronic gaming systems, power supplies, communications equipment and industrial and automotive electronics.

Working Principle

The MAP4KE7.5CAE3 is an analogue axial TVS diode, operating over a wide range of working voltages, from 6.5 to 9 volts. The diode is reverse-biased, in other words, the anode is connected to the lower potential and the cathode is connected to the higher potential. When any transient voltage spike goes above the diode’s breakdown voltage, it will be rapidly drained away by the diode and its applied load, dissipating the energy of the transient. This protects the component itself and other component connected to it from high-voltage transient.

The MAP4KE7.5CAE3 diode is capable of withstanding up to 5,000-watt peak power and 1,500-ampere peak current pulses. In addition, it offers a low capacitance value and low clamping voltage for excellent noise suppression capabilities. With a reverse break-down voltage of 7.5 volts, it provides significant protection against over-voltage, power surges and electrostatic discharge.
