TVS- Diodes

Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diodes are one of the most often used surge protection devices for efficiently protecting equipment against the damaging effects of electrostatic discharges (ESD) and transients induced by lighting & other sources. Common widely used and applied across many industries, TVS diodes are a vital component to ensure consistent and reliable operation of electronic equipment.

MAPLAD36KP20CA Application Field and Working Principle

The MAPLAD36KP20CA is a TVS diode from NXP Semiconductors with high power unidirectional transient suppression capabilities. It has a low clamping voltage of 36V, a minimum breakdown voltage of 65V, and is capable of sustaining maximum power dissipation of 1.2W. This TVS diode is mainly utilized for the protection of bus lines, power supply lines, and DC lines from voltage spikes due to lightning, electromagnetic interference (EMI) and other sources. MAPLAD36KP20CA are two-leaded components featuring an axial lead which makes them suitable for installation on printed circuit boards (PCB). Additionally, they are lead-free and conform to the standards of RoHS.

TVS diodes, such as the MAPLAD36KP20CA, works on the principle of avalanche breakdown. When a large voltage spike is applied across its cathode and anode terminals, electrons in the diode’s depletion layer can gain sufficient kinetic energy to collide and ionize other atoms, resulting in an avalanche multiplication. As a result, the diode quickly reduces the overvoltage by clamping it to a safe level. The MAPLAD36KP20CA TVS diode exhibits excellent surge and ESD suppressor performance, with a peak pulse current of 30A and peak pulse power dissipation of 250W.

In conclusion, the MAPLAD36KP20CA is a robust and reliable TVS diode that is suitable for protecting sensitive electronic equipment in both commercial and industrial settings. It exhibits excellent robustness and high surge suppression capability, making it an ideal choice for protecting electronic systems against transient voltage spikes. The low profile lead makes it fairly easy to integrate with existing PCBs and thus a reliable and cost-effective surge protection solution.
