TVS - Diodes are components that are designed to protect electronic circuits from transient overvoltage spikes, otherwise known as electrostatic discharges (ESD). The MPLAD18KP64CA is a special type of transil diode specifically designed for use in automotive applications. It is an ideal choice for providing ESD protection in new and existing applications, from clamping transient overvoltage spikes to providing back-to-back protection for power MOSFETs. This article will discuss the application field and working principle of the MPLAD18KP64CA.

The MPLAD18KP64CA is a low-capacitance, fast-acting transil diode with double side protection designed for use in automotive applications. It is a silicon based device that provides reliable protection over a wide temperature range. It protects power MOSFETs and IGBTs from destructive voltage transients in automotive applications, from clamping transient overvoltage spikes, to providing back-to-back protection for power MOSFETs. Its low on-state resistance and low input capacitance allow for greater protection against destructive voltages without compromising power efficiency.

The MPLAD18KP64CA can be used in a wide range of automotive applications, including airbag deployment systems, active/passive safety equipment, vehicle power systems, and ride control systems. It can also be used in a variety of consumer and industrial products, such as mobile phones, automotive audio/visual systems, personal computers, and medical equipment. Its low on-state resistance, fast rise time, and low capacitance make it ideal for protecting electronics from ESD.

The MPLAD18KP64CA is designed to provide protection from destructive transients by short-circuiting the line as the transient voltage rises. When the device detects a transient voltage that exceeds the device’s maximum working ratings, it will activate and clamp the transient voltage, limiting the voltage rise to below the maximum allowed rating. This ensures that the circuitry and components connected to the line are protected from the destruction caused by transients.

In addition to protection against transients, the MPLAD18KP64CA also provides protection against reverse current and reverse recovery capacitance. Its high reverse bias breakdown voltage ensures that reverse current does not occur, and its low reverse recovery capacitance ensures that the device does not suffer from unwanted voltage spikes during reverse recovery. This ensures the device remains a reliable and effective ESD protection device.

The MPLAD18KP64CA can also be used in combination with other transil diodes to provide additional protection. By combining multiple devices in series and/or in parallel, the total voltage and current clamped can be increased, which can improve the protection afforded to the device from transients. This can be especially beneficial when protecting sensitive and expensive circuitry.

The MPLAD18KP64CA is a reliable and cost-effective option for protecting electronics from transients and ESD. Its low on-state resistance, fast rise time, and low capacitance make it a great choice for protecting circuitry from destructive transients. Its high reverse bias breakdown voltage and low reverse recovery capacitance ensures that the device remains reliable and effective, and its ability to be combined with additional transil diodes provides additional protection. All of these features make the MPLAD18KP64CA an ideal choice for providing robust ESD protection in automotive and consumer applications.
