TVS diodes, also known as TransIENT Voltage Suppressors, are designed to protect electronic devices from ESD, EFT, and other overvoltage transients. Many different types of TVS diodes are available, each designed for a specific application. MAPLAD36KP20CAE3 is one such example. This article looks at the application field and working principle of the MAPLAD36KP20CAE3.

Overview of MAPLAD36KP20CAE3
MAPLAD36KP20CAE3 is an Unidirectional TVS diode developed by Littelfuse, Inc. It is a high-performance device intended for use in lightning protection, power line protection, and ESD protection. It is made of silicon and constructed using planar technology. It has a forward standoff voltage of 36V and a peak pulse power rating of 5000W (10/1000µs). It has an operating junction temperature range of -55 °C to +125 °C, and is RoHS-compliant.

Application Field
MAPLAD36KP20CAE3 is designed for use in harsh industrial environments where ESD- and power line-induced transients are common. It can be used in applications that require maximum protection against both ESD and EFT events, such as motor drives, robotics, ATM and banking systems, power supplies, and automotive electronics. It can also be used in zones 4 and 5 of IEC 61850-3 lightning protection.

Working Principle
MAPLAD36KP20CAE3 is a unidirectional device, meaning that it can only allow current to flow in one direction. During an overvoltage transient, the device absorbs the excess energy and then dissipates the voltage across its internal circuitry. The built-in unidirectional active device then redirects the energy away from the device and back into the power line. This process is known as voltage clamping. The device is designed so that it won\'t open or fail in the event of an overvoltage transient.

The MAPLAD36KP20CAE3 device has an integrated system that provides a very fast response time. It can absorb and dissipate approximately 5,000W of energy within a few nanoseconds, thus providing a high level of protection against destructive surges. The device\'s thermal design ensures that it remains in the same condition after absorbing a surge.

MAPLAD36KP20CAE3 is also designed to be RoHS-compliant, meaning that it contains no hazardous materials. This ensures that the device is safe for use in environmentally sensitive locations.

Conclusion
MAPLAD36KP20CAE3 is a high-performance unidirectional TVS diode designed to provide maximum protection against ESD and power line-induced transients. It is intended for use in harsh industrial environments and can be used in applications that require maximum protection against overvoltage transients. In addition, it is RoHS-compliant, making it safe for use in environmentally sensitive locations.
