TVS - Diodes: MAPLAD36KP36CA Application Field and Working Principle

Introduction

TVS - Diodes are components that protect sensitive electronics from voltage transients and the danger of high energy surge. They can be used in arrays, modules, and surface-mount devices, as well as single devices, and are employed in many types of circuit designs. MAPLAD36KP36CA is one such device, designed to provide transient voltage suppression (TVS) of a wide range of transients resulting from lightning, electrostatic discharge (ESD), or inductive surges. In this article, we will discuss MAPLAD36KP36CA\'s application field and working principle.

Applications of MAPLAD36KP36CA TVS - Diodes

MAPLAD36KP36CA TVS - Diodes can be employed in a variety of applications, owing to the component\'s ability to provide stress protection from transients. The device is capable of multiple different breakdown modes and is popularly applied in a range of industries.Because of its low capacitance and low thermal resistance, MAPLAD36KP36CA is a prime choice for telecommunications and data line protection. With its high surge capability, it can also be applied to protect AC mains and circuit board ports from dangerous overvoltages. In addition, MAPLAD36KP36CA is used for protecting automotive systems, including ECUs, ABS, clocks, and audio systems. Furthermore, it may be used in military/aerospace applications, due to its ability to suppress lightning and ESD transients. Finally, it has been employed in devices like notebooks and MP3 players, allowing them to be protected from transients.

Working Principle of MAPLAD36KP36CA TVS - Diodes

The MAPLAD36KP36CA is a series of overvoltage protection devices that provide the appropriate clamping of surge voltages in the event of an induced surge, while still allowing some current to flow. The device is designed to dissipate or clamp the transient energy, in order to maintain the specified voltage levels. Within its operating voltage, it limits the current by turning into a perfect diode.MAPLAD36KP36CA employs the principle of the avalanche breakdown effect, where a large electric field is created within the device during a voltage surge. As the electric field increases, it eventually reaches a voltage threshold known as the avalanche breakdown voltage, causing the current to suddenly increase. This sudden current surge leads to a decrease in the voltage across the device. To ensure proper operation, MAPLAD36KP36CA has two critical parameters – the breakdown voltage and the clamping voltage. The breakdown voltage is the voltage at which the device begins to pass current, while the clamping voltage is the voltage at which the surge current is clamped.

Conclusion

In conclusion, MAPLAD36KP36CA TVS - Diodes are designed to provide reliable protection for sensitive electronics against transients resulting from lightning, ESD, or inductive surges. The component finds application in various fields, such as telecommunications, automotive, military/aerospace, and portable device protection. Its working principle relies on an avalanche breakdown effect, where the current surges as the electric field reaches the avalanche breakdown voltage.
