TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) diodes are semiconductor devices used to protect sensitive circuitry from voltage transients caused by electrostatic discharge or power surges. The MEXPLAD15KP110CAE3 is a uni-directional low power Silicon TVS Diode designed to protect sensitive SMD components. This device provides protection against voltage transients caused by ESD, EFT, and other electrical surges, and is suitable for use in a wide range of consumer, industrial, automotive, commercial and military applications.
Application Field
The MEXPLAD15KP110CAE3 is a uni-directional low power Silicon TVS Diode designed to protect sensitive SMD components. It has a low leakage current (typically 0.5uA at 6V) and a low breakdown voltage (typically 15V). The device is rated for a peak pulse power of 8kW and a peak surge current capability of 15A. The device is available in the SMA/DO-214AC package. This device is suitable for use in a wide range of consumer, industrial, automotive, commercial and military applications. It can be used to protect SMD components from ESD, EFT, and other electrical surges.
Working Principle
The MEXPLAD15KP110CAE3 is a uni-directional low power Silicon TVS Diode designed to protect sensitive SMD components. The device operates on the principle of voltage clamping. When a transient voltage exceeds the threshold level of the diode, the diode quickly conducts a low current to limit the voltage across the protected components. This low current quickly dissipates the energy of the transient voltage. The device has a low trigger threshold voltage, typically 15V, and a low reverse leakage current of 0.5µA.
The MEXPLAD15KP110CAE3 is designed with a soft-recovery feature, which allows the device to recover quickly after a transient voltage has been clamped. The device also has a high transient power rating of 8kW. This allows the device to handle a high surge of power without degrading or damaging the device. The device also has a low profile design, making it suitable for use in dense SMD applications.
Conclusion
The MEXPLAD15KP110CAE3 is a low power Silicon TVS Diode designed to protect sensitive SMD components. It has a low leakage current, a low breakdown voltage, a high transient power rating, and a low profile design. The device is suitable for use in a wide range of consumer, industrial, automotive, commercial and military applications, and can be used to protect SMD components from ESD, EFT, and other electrical surges.
