Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diodes are electronic components designed for efficient switching and protection of electrical and electronic circuits. They provide protection from overloads, shorts, transients and other harmful events that can occur due to faulty electrical connections, sudden power outages, or a short circuit. The MPLAD36KP160CA is a TVS diode specifically created to provide reliable protection for high-voltage AC/DC systems. This diode operates using a voltage clamping mechanism that protects the system from overvoltages by reducing the voltage peak to an acceptable level.

The MPLAD36KP160CA is a unidirectional diode capable of suppressing transients up to 36kV. It can handle pulses up to 15kV with 50% duty cycle and 2.5kV with 100% duty cycle. This diode has an IH (Maximum Transient Pulse Current) of 5kA, and an IR (Maximum Reverse Leakage Current) of 1mA. Its clamping voltage is dependent on the device\'s junction temperature, working at a minimum of 36V with a temperature of 35°C and a maximum voltage of 50V at 25°C.

MPLAD36KP160CA diodes are perfect for using in electrical and electronic systems with high-voltage inputs, such as AC/DC power supplies, audio/video equipment, telecom switching systems, instrumentation, panel boards and others. This device is designed to reduce peak voltage in devices connected to high-voltage AC or DC power sources, thereby protecting them against the damage that can result from high voltage transients. This diode also helps to ensure proper operation of circuit components, as it can reduce the chances of circuit malfunction and improve the system\'s overall performance.

The MPLAD36KP160CA is made up of a wide selection of components, which includes a low-capacitance Zener diode and a surge current capable silicon transistor. This diode is connected in series with the system power supply, with the diode\'s cathode connected to the power supply\'s positive terminal and the diode\'s anode connected to the system\'s ground. When overvoltage occurs in the system, the diode\'s voltage will clamp the voltage spike and reduce it to an acceptable level.

The MPLAD36KP160CA is a reliable solution for protecting AC/DC systems from overvoltages. Its superior design makes it an ideal choice for systems with high-voltage input requirements. Its efficient switching and protection capabilities provide reliable and effective protection against power failure, transients, and overvoltages. Its wide selection of components, along with its clamping capabilities, make it an excellent choice for various systems and applications.
