TVS - Diodes

A Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode is a power protection device primarily used to protect against momentary voltage surges. It is an electrical component, and the base material is silicon. It is used to protect electronic devices against electric transients induced by lightning and other abrupt, high-power voltage transients. TVS Diodes are often chosen over other built-in protection devices such as metal oxide varistors (MOV\'s) due to their extremely fast response time and low clamping voltage.

MXP5KE130CA application field and working principle

The MXP5KE130CA has become an emerging standard for the protection of electronic devices from transients. It provides low capacitance and low clamps voltage, with a clamping current of 17A. It is widely used in transportation, telecommunications, consumer electronics and industrial applications.

The MXP5KE130CA is composed of two major components, the diode itself and the zener diode circuit. When there is an abrupt, high-power voltage transient, the diode will clamp the maximum voltage of the transient. The clamping voltage varies with temperature. At low temperatures, the diode will clamp a higher voltage, while at high temperatures, it will clamp a much lower voltage. The zener diode circuit is activated when the voltage of the transient exceeds the limit of the diode. The zener diode then forms a path for current to flow to ground, limiting the maximum voltage of the transient.

The MXP5KE130CA is ideal for use in telecom and industrial applications where it is subject to long term temperature exposure. The device has a maximum operating temperature of 125℃, beyond which it will start to degrade. Additionally, it has low capacitance of only 12pF, allowing for faster response time when compared to other devices.

The MXP5KE130CA is widely used due to its high performance and reliable protection. It is important to ensure that it is used in the appropriate application to ensure optimal performance. For example, it is important to remember that the device has a maximum current of 17A. If the application is subjected to currents exceeding this threshold, an alternate protection device must be used.
