TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) diodes are used in many diverse applications, such as protecting sensitive hardware from over-voltage damage, providing electrical isolation, and improving system performance. The MMBZ16VALVL is a common type of TVS diode, which provides reverse over-voltage protection for automotive voltage regulators and general applications. Here, we will discuss the application field and working principle of the MMBZ16VALVL.

The MMBZ16VALVL is designed for applications in automotive circuits where protection from reverse over-voltage is needed. Typical operating voltages range from 12V to 42V. It is also suitable for high-side and low-side voltage regulators, as well as transient voltage surge suppression (TVSS) circuits. This device features a low clamping voltage, low leakage current, and low capacitance. Its breakdown voltage also makes it ideal for high-side and low-side voltage regulation applications.

In terms of working principle, the MMBZ16VALVL is a zener diode, which provides reverse over-voltage protection. In the event of an over-voltage, the diode will draw current away from the load circuit, and begin to conduct as a resistor. This will result in a voltage drop through the diode, which will protect the load circuit from over-voltage damage. The voltage drop can be adjusted by changing the resistance of the diode in the circuit.

The MMBZ16VALVL is also equipped with surge protection. When faced with a transient over-voltage, the diode will “clamp” the voltage to a certain level to protect sensitive components in the circuit from damage. It also has the ability to withstand reverse-bias conditions without breakdown, protecting against damage from electrocution.

The MMBZ16VALVL is well suited for applications that require transient over-voltage protection, such as automotive voltage regulators, TVSS, and high-side/low-side voltage regulation circuits. It is also highly reliable and can provide robust protection from surges and electrical shock. With its low clamping voltage, low leakage current, and low capacitance, it is an ideal choice for these kinds of applications.
