The MXL15KP85A is a silicon avalanche diode (SAD) designed to protect resources from lightning or other high voltage transient surge conditions. As part of a TVS - Diodes product line, this model is considered an ultra-low capacitance, ultra-low leakage diode array having a 15 kV rating. It is considered a one of the best protector solutions for different sensor noise lines, and can accommodate up to 5 watts of surge power.

Application Field

The MXL15KP85A is an excellent choice for providing ESD protection and other high voltage surge protection needs. It is designed specifically to protect resources from high voltage transients and lightning. Examples of its application fields include thermocouple and RTD sensor lines, various automotive systems, avionics, communications and industrial machinery. This series of diode is ideal for protecting high speed data lines, and it also provides excellent protection against EMI/RFI noise.

Working Principle

The working principle of the MXL15KP85A is simple. When a transient voltage goes above a predetermined level, the voltage breakdown voltage of the diode, it will conduct the power when the power line is below the zener voltage. The unit is designed to be ultra-low capacitance and ultra-low leakage, two characteristics that make it exceptionally reliable in protecting resources from high voltage transients. Once the transient event has passed, the diode will return to its normal, non-conducting state.

The unit utilizes a reverse-equipped capacitor across the terminals of the diode to provide a low current form of protection from EMI/RFI noise. The capacitor helps to dissipate any residual charge on the surge that may otherwise cause damage to the protected device.

The MXL15KP85A is also designed with a temperature compensation feature, which helps to make sure that the diode remains at peak performance. This feature helps the unit to maintain its high-speed switching capability even when exposed to a wide range of temperatures. This allows it to provide exceptional protection in a wide variety of applications.

The surge protection is also enhanced by the use of an LED indicator that is automatically turned on when the diode is conducting. This allows the user to determine which devices are being protected and which are vulnerable to transient events.

Overall, the MXL15KP85A is a great choice for protecting resources from transient surge events. It is designed for quick and effective protection and is an ideal choice for any application where reliable and efficient surge protection is a must. Thanks to its ultra-low capacitance and low leakage features, it is capable of providing superior protection against high voltage transients, EMI/RFI, and lightning.
