The MXL15KP51A is a bidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode. It’s a robust device designed to protect components and circuits from the effects of electrical transients, such as transient over-voltages. It is robust because the body is encased in a resin mould that provides a high level of protection from shocks and vibrations.

The device is able to suppress static and transient over-voltages of up to ±60kV without generating any significant heat, and is able to do so over a temperature range of -55℃ to +150℃.

The MXL15KP51A is suitable for use in a wide range of applications where protection from transient over-voltages is required. These include automotive applications, industrial equipment, HVAC systems, motor control systems, power supplies, LED lighting, and telecommunications applications.

The device works by providing protection against transient over-voltages in two ways. Firstly, the diode is made from a high-reliability Zener material. This material has a low breakdown voltage, which allows the device to be triggered by relatively low levels of over-voltage. Secondly, an integrated polyethylene oxide layer acts as a stress absorbing buffer, providing additional protection against over-voltage.

When normal levels of voltage are applied, the device will exhibit a very low forward voltage drop, thus allowing for efficient power transfer. However, when an over-voltage is detected, the device will clamp the voltage, limiting the current flow to a safe level that will not damage the protected circuit or component.

The MXL15KP51A is a highly reliable device and is designed for use in extreme environments. It is RoHS compliant and has a low profile of just 0.60mm making it ideal for space-constrained applications. The device is available in a pocket-sized reel format for automated assembly.
