The MXPLAD30KP16AE3 is a silicon transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients caused by electrostatic discharge (ESD), electric fast transients (EFT) and lightning. It is designed to withstand ESD pulses up to a maximum of 30 kV, surpassing the IEC 61000-4-2 15 kV air discharge and 8 kV contact discharge test requirements without breakdown. The device features high surge capability (300 A, 8/20 µs) and working peak reverse voltage of 16 V.

A reverse-biased TVS diode works like a short reversible circuit with a high resistance in its unidirectional state and a very low resistance in its bidirectional state. That is to say, the diode acts like a closed switch when the reverse voltage is low and acts like an open circuit when the reverse voltage is high. At the same time, the TVS diode also has a predetermined breakdown voltage. When the voltage exceeds this level, the TVS diode will be in avalanche breakdown. When this happens, the diode\'s closed circuit is converted into a low-resistance short-circuit path, quickly discharging the overvoltage.

Major applications of MXPLAD30KP16AE3 TVS diode include telecommunication systems, DSL and cable modems, networking, peripheral and portable equipment, in-vehicle electronics, set-top boxes,security systems, ATMs, cash registers, automotive alternators, and many others. Due to its enhanced surge protection capability, MXPLAD30KP16AE3 is also particularly suitable for protection of sensitive equipment installed in potentially harsh environments like shipyards, factories, warehouses, oil rigs, etc..

The MXPLAD30KP16AE3 is suitable for bidirectional protection and for DC or AC power line applications. Some of its other features include low leakage current,low capacitance, and low electrical noise. The device is offered in DO-214AA, SC-59, SC-70, and SMA packages.

In conclusion, the MXPLAD30KP16AE3 is a high-power, fast-acting, and bi-directional transient voltage suppressor diode specially designed for withstanding high ESD impulses up to 30 kV and surge current up to 300A. Offered in different packages, this diode is suitable for a variety of applications including communication and data systems, automotive, consumer and industrial electronics, and much more.
