MXLRT100KP400A

Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS) are diodes that are designed to protect sensitive electronic components from damage due to short-term overvoltages, or transients. The MXLRT100KP400A is a high-reliability, low-capacitance, fast-response transient voltage suppressor used to protect electronic components such as ICs and integrated circuits (ICs) from electrical overstress (EOS), electrostatic discharge (ESD), and electrical transients.

The application areas of the MXLRT100KP400A include automotive systems, mobile devices, computers, and servers. It provides protection against ESD levels of up to 30 kilovolts (kV) and transient pulse widths of up to 6 nanoseconds (ns). The device is rated to dissipate up to 500 watts (W) of power at 8/20 microsecond (µs) surge pulse. The device is also insensitive to transient voltage surges of up to 100V.

The working principle of the MXLRT100KP400A is based on a three-terminal bidirectional thyristor (TRIAC). The device is a fast-acting, efficient, and compact solution for the protection of sensitive equipment from voltage transients and overvoltage. During normal conditions, the device has a low capacitance of 0.1pF and operates in a bidirectional or symmetrical mode. In the case of an overvoltage transient, the TRIAC switches and acts as a rectifier, diverting the surge current away from the device.

The device is capable of handling large surge currents up to 100A and the switching speed is very fast due to the high value of the gate capacitance. The device can be used in a wide range of applications, such as automotive, industrial, medical, and consumer electronics, due to its high reliability and exceptional performance.
