MXL5KP17CAE3 is a superior quality transient voltage suppressor which is a widely used product from Littelfuse, Inc. It is a silicon diode with a very high breakdown voltage and it is encapsulated in a SMC-header tab. The main application fields of this product are lightning protection, ESD protection, and over-voltage protection.

MXL5KP17CAE3, which belongs to TVS –Diodes, is a bidirectional voltage clamping technology. It is characterized by a wide voltage range from 9V to 59V and it offers low dynamic resistance of 900mΩ. This product provides clamping of input surge voltage and offers a low incremental surge current of 14.3A. It is designed to protect sensitive electronic components from the damage caused by transients.

The working principle of MXL5KP17CAE3 is very simple and reliable. During normal operation, the diode is reverse biased, and no current will flow. When a transient voltage appears, the voltage across the diode will increase and cause it to switch forward. This brings the current to a high enough voltage to ensure that the reverse breakdown occurs. During this period, the reverse breakdown voltage of the diode is determined by the peak current that flows in it and the voltage across it. After the transient has been successfully clamped, the current will drop below the holding current, and the diode will be switched off.

The high-reliability of MXL5KP17CAE3 alsomakes this product very suitable for demanding applications. It complies with the latest standards such as RoHS, WEEE, and REACH. This product is mainly used in applications where the high reliability requirement and the need for protection against powerful transients is needed. This product is usually used between electronic components and power supply, or between a transformer and power supply. As this product is designed with excellent clamping characteristics, it offers great protection against the damaging effects of transients.

MXL5KP17CAE3 is an excellent choice for a wide range of applications from consumer to industrial automation such as: lightning and overvoltage protection in exterior devices, TVs, computers, servers, and active equipment with built-in lightning protection. It is also used in various automotive applications such as the automotive entertainment and communication system (ECS) and other high-voltage automotive applications.

In conclusion, MXL5KP17CAE3, as a superior quality, high-reliability transient voltage suppressor, provides reliable lightning, ESD, and over-voltage protection. It features excellent clamping characteristics and offers superior performance in a wide range of applications. This product is environmentally friendly and complies with the latest standards such as RoHS, WEEE, and REACH. It is an excellent choice for applications where the high reliability requirement and the need for protection against powerful transients is needed.
