TVS - Diodes, also known as transil diodes, are components that are used to protect sensitive electronic components by diverting any energy in the form of transient voltage such as electrostatic discharge (ESD) or lightning strikes, away from them. The MSMBG6.5A/TR is a Rectangular Low Capacitance TVS diode array in a PQFN package. It meets the requirements of the IEC 61000-4-2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 and 11 standards. This article aims to discuss the application field and working principle of the MSMBG6.5A/TR.

Application field

The MSMBG6.5A/TR is designed to protect sensitive ICs/PCBs and various kinds of consumer electronic equipments from ESD and other potential dangers. It is well suited for use in a variety of automotive, industrial and consumer applications, such as automotive infotainment systems, automotive body electronics, machine-to-machine communications, consumer television/recorder protection, and automotive/industrial microcontroller protection.

Working Principle

The working principle of the MSMBG6.5A/TR is based on the use of a Zener diode and a TVS diode connected in parallel. The TVS diode is a type of diode that is designed to shunt large amounts of voltage away from a sensitive device in order to protect it from damage due to overvoltages. In contrast, the Zener diode is used to clamp the voltage on the positive or negative side of the device. The combination of the two diodes ensures that the protected device is able to withstand large voltage transient events and not be damaged.

When the MSMBG6.5A/TR is exposed to a transient voltage, the Zener diode will start to conduct and limit the voltage. The TVS diode will be the main component in turning the current away from the protected device. As the current starts to flow, the voltage begins to rise, which causes the Zener diode to turn off and the TVS diode to start conducting. The TVS diode will then start controlling the transient and dissipate it as heat. Once the transient voltage has passed, the Zener diode will be restored to its original state and again limit the voltage.

Conclusion

The MSMBG6.5A/TR is a Low Capacitance TVS diode array which is suitable for use in a variety of automotive, industrial and consumer applications. Its working principle is based on the use of a Zener diode and a TVS diode connected in parallel, which ensures that the protected device is able to withstand large voltage transient events and not be damaged. Thus, TVS - Diodes serve a vital role in providing protection for sensitive electronic components from transient voltage.
