TVS - Diodes

TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) diodes are specifically designed components used to protect various electronic systems from electrical overstress, including electrostatic discharge (ESD), lightning and other types of transient events. These components perform a key role in modern industrial and automotive applications.

MXLSMLJ5.0CA Application Field and Working Principle

The MXLSMLJ5.0CA is a 5kV single line surge protection device from Littelfuse. It is designed to protect industrial circuits from overvoltage transients caused by lightning, load switching and power cross for applications in the railway industry. It features a low profile, low capacitance, and a unique tear drop package. The device is rated for up to 5kV surge voltage with response times as low as 0.5µs and capacitance of 0.2pF.

The MXLSMLJ5.0CA TVS diode has an avalanche breakdown voltage of 5kV and a maximum clamping voltage of 7.5V. The surge current rating is 8A and the maximum forward current rating is 0.5A. The device also has a maximum peak power rating of 145W.

In the event of an overvoltage transient, the MXLSMLJ5.0CA TVS diode quickly responds by clamping the voltage to a lower safe level. This suppresses the transient and prevents it from damaging the device or other components connected to the circuit. The device also has a low capacitance which helps to reduce EMI and reduce power supply noise.

The MXLSMLJ5.0CA is designed to be used in a variety of applications, including industrial power supplies, automotive, medical equipment, telecommunications, and lightning protection systems.

In conclusion, the MXLSMLJ5.0CA is a TVS diode designed for protecting various industrial circuits from overvoltage transients caused by lightning, load switching, and power cross. The device features a low profile, low capacitance, and a unique tear drop package. The maximum surge voltage rating is 5kV and the maximum peak power rating is 145W.
