TVS - Diodes

TVS-diodes, as the name implies, are transverse voltage suppressors. They are a form of solid-state device that is used to protect circuits against transient overvoltage caused by electrostatic discharges (ESD) or lightning strikes. The MP4KE24AE3 is a typical example of a TVS-diode.

MP4KE24AE3 Application Field

The MP4KE24AE3 is designed for use in industrial and automotive applications where high-transient protection is required. It has an ESD rating of 15 kV, making it suitable for use in high-voltage environments such as electric car charging stations, power generators, and power supplies. It also has an operational temperature range of -65C to +150C, making it suitable for use in extreme temperature conditions.

MP4KE24AE3 Working Principle

The working principle of the MP4KE24AE3 is simple, yet effective. It employs a breakdown voltage of 24V in order to protect the circuit from overvoltages. When the voltage on the line rises above the 24V breakdown, the device will immediately short circuit and divert the current away from the main circuit. This limits the voltage rise of the transient and protects the circuit.

The MP4KE24AE3 is also designed to absorb a certain amount of current surges. This is referred to as the clamping voltage. The device has a peak power of 500W, which is equivalent to 2A of current for a duration of 1 microsecond. This allows the device to absorb high current surges that could otherwise cause damage to the circuit.

Conclusion

The MP4KE24AE3 is a high-performance TVS diode that is suited for a wide range of industrial and automotive applications. Its 24V breakdown voltage and 500W peak power make it an effective device for protecting circuits from ESD and transient overvoltages. With a temperature range of -65C to +150C, it can be used in extreme temperature conditions as well.
