Introduction

MXP6KE16CAE3 is a TVS Diode (Transient Voltage Suppressor) designed to protect vulnerable circuits from voltage transients and over-voltage conditions. They are also known as surge suppressor or clamping diodes. This product is suitable for high speed data lines in interface cards, PDA, mobile phone and various digital products. MXP6KE16CAE3 provides the highest level of protection available in surface mount packages.

Application Field

MXP6KE16CAE3 mainly serves as a component to protect vulnerable circuits from transient over-voltage and over-temperature conditions. It is typically used in consumer electronics, telecommunications, automotive electronics, and other sensitive instrumentation circuits. Some typical applications include use with USB ports, microprocessor ports, power supply lines, portable product lines, and other switching circuits and sensitive analog circuits.

Working Principle

MXP6KE16CAE3 is designed to protect circuits against voltages higher than the breakdown voltage rating by clamping devices. Its working principle is based on the Avalanche breakdown mechanism. In Avalanche breakdown, a steep characteristic slope is obtained, which results in a lower clamping voltage. This structure allows the device to often lower its clamping voltage and limit the transient energy which may affect the circuit. When the MXP6KE16CAE3 is operated at normal operating conditions, an avalanche breakdown occurs when the current reaches some critical level and the diode will clamp the voltage present on the line. The device also features avalanche energy ratings that are based on the peak energy or energy stored in the capacitor. The higher the energy rating, the better the device can withstand higher transient energy conditions.

Conclusion

MXP6KE16CAE3 is a suitable TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) Diode designed to protect vulnerable circuits from voltage transients and over-voltage conditions. It provides high-level of protection by using its avalanche breakdown mechanism and is suitable for high speed data lines in interface cards, PDA, mobile phone and various digital products. This diode is also suitable for consumer electronics, telecommunications, automotive electronics, and other sensitive instrumentation circuits.
