Working Principle of the MXLRT100KP250A

The working principle of the MXLRT100KP250A is fairly simple. When a surge of overvoltage enters the circuit, the TVS acts as a clamp and absorbs energy from the surge, thereby protecting other elements of the system from damage. The TVS is composed of two main elements: a zener diode and a varistor (metal oxide varistor or MOV). The zener diode provides basic protection, while the MOV acts as an energy absorber and increases the protection level.

When the circuit experiences an overvoltage surge, the zener diode conducts the current away from the sensitive components and then dissipates it in the form of heat. The MOV is also activated by the surge and it absorbs the energy by breaking down and dissipating it as heat. The MOV also helps to reduce the amount of current that is conducted into the system. This mechanism allows the system to be protected from electrical surges, spikes and other transient overvoltages.

Conclusion

The MXLRT100KP250A TVS provides an effective and versatile solution to protecting electronic components in a variety of applications. The device is composed of a zener diode and a MOV that act together to absorb overvoltage and reduce current conducted into the system. This ensures that the system is protected from damages caused by overvoltage, such as power cross and lightning.
