Transient voltage suppressors diode (TVS-diodes) are elemental protection devices used to protect sensitive electronic equipment from transient voltage spikes.MXLPLAD30KP180AE3 is an example of TVS-diode. It is a unidirectional TVS diode designed to protect sensitive electronic circuits against transients generated by lightning, inductive load switching and other transient overvoltage events.

Application Field:

MXLPLAD30KP180AE3 is mostly applied to the circuit protection of cellular phones, smart phones, digital camera and security systems. By clamping and dissipating the transient voltage, MXLPLAD30KP180AE3 protects sensitive circuit boards from the damaging transient voltage that can occur during power up and during various switching activities. Furthermore, it is also suitable for other communication systems, computer peripherals, automotive components and consumer electronic products.

Working Principle:

Functionally, TVS-diodes act as a voltage-controlled switch and, in essence, act to provide overvoltage, surge, and ESD protection. MXLPLAD30KP180AE3 is a diode type TVS device equipped with a high breakdown voltage of 180V. Its unidirectional property only allows electrical current to flow in one direction, from the anode to the cathode. In response to an excessive voltage spike above its reverse standoff voltage, MXLPLAD30KP180AE3 acts to shunt (divert) the destructive surge current away from the protected device. This includes both the peak pulse current rating and the clamping voltage. The maximum current that the TVS diode can withstand is known as the peak pulse current rating.

At the same time, a third parameter known as the clamping voltage is also important. This is the voltage level at which the diode starts conducting current. When a transient voltage is applied to MXLPLAD30KP180AE3 , the reverse bias voltage enables the diode to activate. This voltage will cause the diode to change from a high impedance state to a low impedance state. Once the diode has clamped the voltage, it will enter a sustained current conduction state. Thus, the MXLPLAD30KP180AE3 is able to suppress voltages well above its breakdown threshold and the voltage is clamped to the clamping voltage while the current is diverted away from the sensitive device.

In conclusion, MXLPLAD30KP180AE3 is an ideal diode-type TVS device for various applications such as cellular phones, smart phones, digital cameras, security systems, and various automotive and consumer electronic products. It provides a protective characteristic of transient voltage with a wide range of breakdown voltages up to 180V.The device also provides safe passage to transient currents by providing an extremely low impedance path between the anode and cathode terminals.
