MP4KE12CAE3

MP4KE12CAE3 is a type of TVS - Diodes (Transient Voltage Suppressor Diode). The use of this type of diode is paramount in providing protection and stability to enhance the performance of modern electronic devices.

By utilizing a specific construction that allows for fast action, this diode is designed to help protect sensitive electrical components from exposure to potentially dangerous voltage transients. This applies particularly in the case of low-voltage and vibration-prone electronics.

The working principle of MP4KE12CAE3 is to convert high-voltage transients into electric arcs, allowing the device to immediately short-circuit and absorb the surge. This occurs within a tiny time frame which is fast enough to protect the circuit from damaging overvoltage or overcurrent.

MP4KE12CAE3 is typically used as a protective element in power systems, such as in aviation and automotive systems, which require a higher level of protection and must operate reliably under fluctuating environmental conditions. It is also highly suitable as a component in a variety of other electronic devices, including computers, medical equipment, industrial equipment, and home appliances.

This particular TVS - Diode is available in a number of different packages, including SOT-23, SOT-23F, D2PAK, micro-welding packages, and LED board-mounted packages. It has a maximum power dissipation of 500 mW, and is capable of handling continuous as well as short-circuit current up to 1.5 A.

The features of this device make it an excellent choice for applications in which both protection and reliability are of the utmost importance, such as in aerospace, automotive, and telecom systems. It is also suitable for use in portable devices, as it offers efficient protection in very small spaces.

The MP4KE12CAE3 is the perfect solution for protecting sensitive circuits and prolonging the life of electronic devices. This robust and reliable diode is designed to provide optimal levels of protection while minimizing energy loss and component volume.
