TVS (transient voltage suppression) diodes are an increasingly important component for protecting circuits against the destructive effects of high voltage spikes. The MXLSMLJ70CA is a three-line SMA unidirectional TVS diode from the STMicroelectronics STLC0005-TE family that offers an optimized transient overvoltage protection performance of 1000W for 8/20µs surge events. The component also features an absolute maximum rating of 7V (reverse) and 70V (forward) making it suitable for a wide range of industrial and automotive applications.

MXLSMLJ70CA diodes have a very low dynamic resistance typically found in small-signal TVS diodes. This allows the diode to switch faster than some standard TVS diodes and to provide a higher peak voltage. This in turn increases the protection offered against the destructive effects of high voltage spikes that can cause irreparable damage to sensitive equipment.

The MXLSMLJ70CA diode consists of a matrix of five silicon diodes connected in cascade to provide an array of five independent protection channels that can be arranged to meet the needs of various applications. The diode also features a robust solderable copper lead frame to provide robust mechanical and electrical performance. In addition, this diode features a surge withstand rating of 250W (8/20µs) for continuous operation and 1000W (8/20µs) for non-repetitive operation.

MXLSMLJ70CA diodes can be used in applications such as automotive, telecom systems, workplace equipment, automotive electronics, consumer electronics and medical devices. In such applications the component can be used to provide protection against voltage spikes in order to reduce the risk of permanent circuit or component damage. The diode also offers excellent ESD protection and is compliant with IEC61000-4-2 (ESD) level 4 testing.

The working principle of the MXLSMLJ70CA diode is based on using the diode’s inherent capacitance to absorb or shunted away the transient energy. When the diode is exposed to a transient voltage spike, the capacitance present across the diode terminals acts as a rapid buffer, effectively dissipating the energy across the internal junction of the diode. This allows the diode to effectively limited the voltage applied to the circuit and prevent it from exceeding the desired level.

In summary, the MXLSMLJ70CA three-line SMA unidirectional TVS diode from STMicroelectronics is a versatile component suitable for a range of industrial and automotive applications. The diode offers 1000W transient overvoltage protection in 8/20µs events and 250W (continuous) and 1000W (non-repetitive) surge withstand ratings. The component also features a robust copper lead frame and an absolute maximum rating of 7V (reverse) and 70V (forward). The working principle of the component is based on absorbing or shunt away the transient energy using its inherent capacitance.
