Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diodes are used to protect sensitive electronics from voltage fluctuations, over-voltage spikes, and even lightning strikes. The MAP5KE17CAE3 is a 5.5V reverse standing working voltage, 17 Watt Unidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor diode. It is a type 2 avionic TVS diode that extends the level of failure protection of sensitive circuits against single or multiple transient stresses.

Application Field of MAP5KE17CAE3

The MAP5KE17CAE3 is suitable for transient voltage protection and Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) protection of sensitive electronics in aircraft systems and military applications that require high reliability, namely airborne electronics, inertial navigation systems, radar, missiles, avionics, military aircraft sensors and control systems, and power plant control systems.

Working Principle of MAP5KE17CAE3

When heavy over-voltage spike occurs, the MAP5KE17CAE3 will trigger the TVS diode instantly and lead the current through itself. This will help to reduce the transient response time. This diode can quickly eliminate the transient spikes and safely conduct the excess current away from the circuit.

The MAP5KE17CAE3 also offers high over-voltage protection against spikes that exceed the specified over-voltage limit. When the intensity of the transient voltage exceeds a pre-defined amplified voltage, the diode will enter the avalanche break-down state, releasing a great amount of broken current in a pulse-like manner, allowing the energy of the current to dissipate safely and avoiding any damage to it.

The diode has high pulse energy capability and also offers high reliability and excellent stability. The protection circuits enable it to provide instantaneous over-voltage protection against very high transient spikes. In addition, the diode has an excellent thermal performance and can withstand high-temperatures up to 175°C.

Overall, the MAP5KE17CAE3 provides excellent transient voltage and surge current protection for circuits against any voltage attack. By having the advantages of a safe operation, durability, excellent thermal performance, and easy handling, it is suitable for circuit applications in the most demanding environments such as aerospace and military applications.
