MPLAD15KP17A TVS - Diodes Application Field and Working Principle

TVS - Diodes are an essential technology used in electrical circuits. They have various applications, including personal electronics, automotive electronics, and medical equipment. They are often used in high-speed electronic systems, due to their ability to protect against electromagnetic interference and other electrical disturbances. The MPLAD15KP17A is a type of TVS - diode. It is a three-terminal device with two parallel pairs of diodes that can be used to suppress high-voltage transients. It can be used with a variety of applications, such as automotive electronics, cell phones, GPS receivers, video systems, computers, and other equipment. The MPLAD15KP17A is designed to be a highly efficient and effective device for protecting circuits and systems against fault or high-energy transient voltage surges. It features an innovative construction that enables it to effectively suppress transients up to 15kV. The device also employs a unique design that provides an injection protection and discharge function for a wide range of DC and AC transients. The MPLAD15KP17A is typically used in one of three ways: as a series, shunt, or dual-mode diode. In a series configuration, the device acts as a high-speed switching device, activating and deactivating with each positive and negative voltage surge. In a shunt configuration, the device acts as a low resistance bridge between the surge voltage source and the protected circuit. In a dual-mode configuration, the device acts as both a series and shunt device at the same time.The working principle of the MPLAD15KP17A is based on the principle of parasitic capacitance. Parasitic capacitance is a property of an electronic component in which the electric field across it generates a small capacitance between nearby electrodes. This small capacitance helps to protect against voltage surges. When the voltage exceeds the suppressor’s breakdown voltage, the stored energy in the parasitic capacitance is released into the circuit as a low resistance. This creates a low impedance path that allows the surge voltage to be quickly dissipated. This low impedance path protects the protected circuit from the voltage surge. The MPLAD15KP17A is an effective device for protecting circuits from a variety of high-voltage transients. It is designed to withstand transients up to 15kV, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications. Additionally, its dual-mode configuration makes it highly versatile and allows it to be used in a variety of situations.
