TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) diodes are essential components that provide surge protection and voltage clamping for electronic systems. In high-power applications, these diodes are used to protect electrical systems from severe voltage transients that can cause permanent damage and failure of the system. The MX5KP70CA is a TVS diode with an 80 V Breakdown Voltage that can handle loads of up to 200 W, making it suitable for applications requiring medium power surge protection. Its features, applications, and working principle are discussed in detail below.

Features

The MX5KP70CA has a wide range of features that make it suitable for inductive, capacitive and resistive loads. It is a high power, low capacitance diode with a capacitance of just 0.2 pF and a maximum clamp voltage of 120 V. It has a 600 W peak pulse power capability and a fast response time of 10 ns. It also boasts low leakage current of 400 nA at 100V. It is built in a 5 mm x 11 mm hermetic ceramic case package and is suitable for lead-free reflow soldering.

Applications

The MX5KP70CA is a high power transient voltage suppressor suitable for various applications. It can be used as an overvoltage protection device in AC to DC converters, power supplies, ESD and EMI protection, telecommunications systems, automotive systems, and any other system requiring surge protection and voltage clamping.

Working Principle

TVS diodes work by clamping the voltage to a safe level, protecting the system from damaging transients. When the voltage rises above the threshold voltage of the diode, it begins to conduct current and clamps the voltage to a safe level. This is done without altering the signal levels of the system during normal operation.

The MX5KP70CA is a unidirectional diode, meaning that it will only conduct current in one direction. This is important for surge protection in that it prevents the current from flowing back into the power supply. It does this by using a special reverse biased structure that prevents current from flowing in the reverse direction. This prevents the surge from being conducted back into the system, protecting it from further damage.

The MX5KP70CA is an ideal choice for any application requiring medium power surge protection and voltage clamping. Its range of features make it suitable for a wide range of applications and its fast response time makes it perfect for protecting sensitive electrical systems from high voltage transients.
