MAPLAD15KP20A is a unidirectional-triggered Silicon Bidirectional Avalanche diode, also known as a Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS). This diode is a tiny, electronic device typically used to protect sensitive components from voltage and current surges. It offers excellent protection values without introducing any additional distortions in the signal.

Typically, MAPLAD15KP20A is used in automotive and industrial applications that require surge protection. They are used in applications such as: automotive-grade converters, automotive-grade power trains, motor control systems, automotive-grade sensors, industrial control systems, medical electronics, communication systems, consumer electronics and many more.

MAPLAD15KP20A is also suitable for high-speed signal lines, where high speed data transmission is essential. It is able to protect a variety of circuits from dangerous voltage and current surges, including lithium ion batteries and Automotive Electronic Control Units.

The working principle of MAPLAD15KP20A is simple. It is designed to absorb overvoltage transients, such as those created by electrostatic discharge (ESD). When it is exposed to a positive transient voltage at the anode, it begins to turn on and diverts the surge away from the device, providing protection for the device. When an opposite, negative transient voltage is applied to the diode, it turns off and the device is again protected.

When properly installed and with the right specifications, MAPLAD15KP20A can protect components from transient and surge voltages up to 20kV. The diode also has a low capacitance so it can protect high-speed signal lines from signal distortion caused by the surge protection device. The diode is also ESD protection-resistant and can withstand multiple ESD pulses due to its fast turn-on and turn-off response time.

MAPLAD15KP20A is also designed to be able to handle up to 20A peak of pulse current and is able to withstand up to 100mA of continuous current. Additionally, the diode has a low leakage current and can withstand a wide range of temperatures, making it suitable for a variety of applications.

In short, MAPLAD15KP20A is an excellent choice for protecting sensitive components from overvoltage transients and high-speed signal lines from signal distortion. It is designed to provide protection from a wide range of voltages and currents, and is capable of withstanding temperature extremes and multiple ESD pulses. In addition, it has low capacitance, so it can protect high-speed signal lines from distortion, making it an ideal choice for many applications.
