Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) Diodes are widely used in electronic systems for protecting electronics from high voltage and ESD (Electrostatic Discharge). The MPLAD18KP16AE3 is a single-line, ceramic TVS diode designed for ESD and surge protection applications. It is a monolithic device based on 5.5 Volt Silicon Avalanche Technology, which makes it suitable for a variety of applications.

The MPLAD18KP16AE3 features a low on resistance that offers superior protection from high levels of over-voltage at a rated pulse current of 16A. It is designed to protect up to 16A continuous DC or AC current and is able to dissipate up to 1,100 Watts of power. This device also features excellent surge characteristics, peak clamping, and fast response capabilities, making it ideal for a range of applications.

The MPLAD18KP16AE3 is widely used in Automotive, Industrial, and Consumer electronic applications. Automotive applications of this device include driver assistance systems, pedestrian/animal detection systems, ABS/ESP, and wheel speed sensors. In consumer electronics, the device is used for ESD protection in portable electronics such as tablets, smartphones, and laptop computers. It is also used in industrial applications such as MOSFET protection, power supply line protection, and surge/ESD protection.

The MPLAD18KP16AE3 offers ESD protection to IEC 61000-4-2, as well as surge protection to IEC 61000-4-5. The device is protected against surge up to 2.2 KV (with IEC 61000-4-2) and 5.0 KV (with IEC 61000-4-5). The peak pulse current rating of 16A (IEC 61000-4-5) makes the device suitable for high power applications.
