TVS-diodes are devices used in industrial, commercial, and domestic power electronics applications. They are constructed from semiconductors, and protective hardware, typically configured to protect electronic equipment and circuits from extreme voltages and high-current surges. Their mechanisms of protection involve diverting of the incoming surge current away from vulnerable electrical components. They protect against lightning, voltage transients, noise from power grids, and other disturbances that could otherwise cause damage.

The MSMCGLCE16AE3 TVS-diode is a variety of TVS-diode specifically designed for Lightning and ESD protection. It is composed of a zinc oxide varistor and a bi-directional transient voltage suppression diode. It is robust and highly effective at preventing damage from extreme voltages or high-current surges by diverting the incoming energy away from vulnerable electrical components.

The MSMCGLCE16AE3 TVS-diode also has a low breakdown voltage and an ultra-low capacitance diode. Its breakdown voltage is 10 volts with a maximum peak pulse current of 30 amperes. This characteristic combination renders the device highly immune to parasitic oscillation when used for lightning protection. The ultra-low capacitance of the diode prevents damage to sensitive circuits when fighting against ESD transients.

The MSMCGLCE16AE3 TVS-diode operates on the principle of voltage multiplicity. Voltage-multiplicity means that the device is programmed to sense the incoming surge of voltage and divert it away from vulnerable components, shorting the path as necessary. The device contains a voltage-regulation circuit and a switching transistor, connected between its anode (cathode) and its draining contact. When the voltage on the anode reaches a predetermined level, the voltage-regulation circuit turns on the switching transistor to divert the surge away from the components and ground the circuit.

This MSMCGLCE16AE3 device offers excellent surge and ESD protection and is ideal for small to large retail electronic equipment. Its highly-stable low-voltage breakdown makes it especially suitable for lightning and surge protection, making it a great choice for industrial settings and high-voltage equipment. Furthermore, its ultra low capacitance helps to limit the number of instances where its protection capability is needed, thus keeping the device\'s power consumption to a minimum. The low capacitance also helps to prevent critical circuits from being damaged by ESD transients.

In summary, the MSMCGLCE16AE3 TVS-diode is a device designed to protect electronic equipment and circuits from extreme voltages and high-current surges. It incorporates a zinc oxide varistor and a bi-directional transient voltage suppression diode and renders a low breakdown voltage while having the strength to fight against intensely high-voltage and current surges. Furthermore, it is highly immune to parasitic oscillation and helps to prevent circuits from being damaged in the case of an ESD surge. Thus, it is an ideal device for any industrial, commercial or domestic application requiring surge protection.
