TVSs (Transient Voltage Suppressors), such as the MMT05A260T3G, are important components within modern electronic systems, and understanding their operation is essential for the design of effective protection strategies.

TVSs are designed to protect electronic circuits against transient voltage events, such as electrostatic discharge (ESD) as well as lightning and switchgear-induced surges. Transient voltage events can have damaging effects on sensitive electronic components, and TVSs are effective components for protection against them.

The working principle of a TVS, such as the MMT05A260T3G, is to limit and/or clamp transient voltages to a safe operating level. The TVS achieves this through a rapid reverse recovery of the stored charge that the transient voltage has created. An example is when an ESD event occurs, the TVS quickly separates the charging current, limiting the effect of the surge.

The other main function of the TVS is to limit inrush currents that occur when the power is turned on. TVSs use two-stage circuit architecture, with an added small component to achieve a reduction in peak current levels of up to 30%. This helps to reduce the risks of disruptions to the equipment, as well as reducing the load on power systems.

In terms of applications, the MMT05A260T3G is designed for use in automotive and industrial electronic systems, providing protection against ESD, power surges, inrush currents and transients. It is also suitable for use in environments where high levels of humidity, salt, and temperature fluctuations are expected. The MMT05A260T3G is a popular choicefor automotive and industrial applications due its performance, durability, and low price.

The MMT05A260T3G is a bidirectional TVS rated up to 30V, and has a peak pulse current of 5.2A (10/1000μs) at 25°C. It has a low clamping voltage, IEC 61000-4-5 Level 3 compliant, and the package is compliant to AEC-Q101. Its small package size and low profile make it an ideal choice for applications with limited space. In addition, it has a low leakage current, and provides ESD protection up to 25kV contact discharge.

In conclusion, TVSs, such as the MMT05A260T3G, are essential components for protecting electronic systems against transient voltage events, such as ESD, lightning, and switchgear-induced surges. With its performance, durability, low price, and small package size, the MMT05A260T3G is a popular choice for automotive and industrial applications. It can effectively limit surge currents, minimize disruptions to the equipment, and provide ESD protection up to 25kV contact discharge.
