MX5KP6.5CAE3

TVS - Diodes have a wide range of applications, ranging from your cell phone charger to the lighting in your car. The MX5KP6.5CAE3 is a highly efficient, low voltage, three-terminal, bi-directional, transistor-style device. It has been specifically designed for the protection of sensitive electronic components in harsh automotive environments.

The main application field of the MX5KP6.5CAE3 is in automotive circuits, where the device is used to protect, among other things, sensors, ignition systems, driving and stop lights, engine and body electric components, antennas, door locks and audio systems. It is particularly well-suited for use in harsh environments, where its high-temperature resistance and low leakage current values make it an ideal choice.

The working principle of the MX5KP6.5CAE3 is based on the concept of breakdown voltage. The breakdown voltage is the voltage at which current begins to flow through the device under normal operating conditions. When the voltage reaches a critical value, the device will “breakdown” and begin to conduct current. This breakdown effect is due to electric field forces that are generated when an electric charge is applied to a conductor or diode.

The MX5KP6.5CAE3 is capable of providing reliable surge protection for high-ampere circuits in a wide range of automotive applications. Its low on-state voltage drop and low leakage current values make it ideal for automotive applications where the value of a well-protected circuit is paramount. Its unique design also helps to prevent the formation of dangerous arcs during the breakdown process.

In conclusion, the MX5KP6.5CAE3 is an example of a highly efficient, three-terminal, bi-directional transistor-style device, designed for the protection of sensitive electronic components in harsh automotive environments. It offers excellent surge protection and low leakage current values, making it ideal for a wide range of automotive applications.
