MPLAD15KP7.0CA/TR Circuit Protection

Transient voltage suppressors (TVS) are electronic components that are designed to protect electrical circuits from voltage transients. They are often used in computer and automotive applications to protect sensitive electronics from power surges and power outages. The MPLAD15KP7.0CA/TR is a type of TVS diode with a maximum standoff voltage of 7.0V, and it is suitable for a wide range of applications.

The MPLAD15KP7.0CA/TR is a low capacitance, low clamping voltage, and unidirectional diode. It provides protection from voltage transients by clamping the voltage to a preset level that is lower than its breakdown voltage. When a voltage transient is detected, the diode will clamp the voltage, effectively dissipating the energy from the transient and protecting the circuit. The MPLAD15KP7.0CA/TR can handle high levels of reverse energy without failure.

MPLAD15KP7.0CA/TR is designed for low leakage, surge protection, and high-breaking down voltage applications. The maximum reverse standoff voltage is 7.0V, while the maximum peak pulse power dissipation is 7500W. It also has a maximum breakdown voltage of 7.6V, and a maximum clamping voltage of 10.8V. The maximum peak pulse current is 9A, with an initial leakage current of 0.5mA.

The MPLAD15KP7.0CA/TR is used in a variety of applications, including power supply protection, signal line protection, data line protection, and motor control. It can be used to protect mainboards, processors, memory circuits, and other electrical components from voltage transients, and is ideal for applications that require robust protection from overvoltage events.

The MPLAD15KP7.0CA/TR is a bidirectional diode, meaning that it will provide protection from power surges or outages on either the positive or negative side of the power supply. It can be used in applications requiring a low clamping voltage, high surge capability, and/or low leakage current. The diode is suitable for use in a variety of environmental conditions, including high temperature, shock, and vibration.

The working principle of the MPLAD15KP7.0CA/TR is relatively simple. When a voltage transient is detected, the diode will “clamp” the voltage to a preset level that is lower than its breakdown voltage. This clamps the voltage to a safe level, thus protecting the circuit from damage. The diode is designed to dissipate the energy from the transient, allowing the circuit to remain safe.

In summary, the MPLAD15KP7.0CA/TR is a type of TVS diode that is designed for low leakage, surge protection, and high-breaking down voltage applications. It provides protection from voltage transients by clamping the voltage to a preset level, which is lower than its breakdown voltage. The diode is suitable for a wide range of applications, including power supply protection, signal line protection, data line protection, and motor control. Furthermore, its working principle is relatively simple and efficient.
