Surge protection devices, also known as TVS diodes, are used in many applications such as automotive, industrial, telecom and consumer electronics to protect electronics from transient voltage surges. The common type of TVS diode most widely used is the Uni-directional (Unidirectional) TVS Diode.

The MXPLAD36KP40CA is a unidirectional transient voltage suppression diode that is designed to protect components from voltage transients caused by lightning and other power disturbances. This amplifying diode has low leakage current, low clamping voltage, fast response time and low capacitance. The rated peak pulse power (PPP) of this diode is 36000W and the average forward current (Io) is 4.0 amperes. Additionally, it provides excellent surge and ESD protection in both power and signal lines.

Application field of MXPLAD36KP40CA

The MXPLAD36KP40CA amplifying diode can be used in many different application fields, such as automotive, telecom, consumer electronics, computers, peripherals, telecom equipment, modems, routers, datacom equipment, and industrial applications. Moreover, this diode is also suitable for board level protection for device driver circuits, power switches, protection circuits, etc. The unique combination of low leakage current, low clamping voltage, fast response time and low capacitance enables it to provide superior protection against overvoltage transients.

Working Principle of MXPLAD36KP40CA

The MXPLAD36KP40CA amplifying diode utilizes a unique structure that includes an integrated unidirectional diode junction and an avalanche breakdown layer for overvoltage protection. The integrated unidirectional diode junction allows current to flow in only one direction, while the avalanche breakdown layer helps to further protect the device from overvoltages. When the diode is exposed to a transient voltage (surge), the avalanche breakdown layer is triggered and a current will flow through the diode. This current flow is then clamped and limited by the diode junction, preventing further damage. The diode is rated in terms of its peak pulse power (PPP) and average forward current (Io). The peak pulse power rating indicates the maximum power the diode is capable of handling, while the average forward current rating indicates the index of the maximum current it can handle.

The MXPLAD36KP40CA is a unidirectional amplifying diode that provides superior protection against overvoltage transients. It has excellent surge and ESD protection characteristics, making it ideal for applications demanding high protection levels. Its low leakage current, low clamping voltage, fast response time and low capacitance further enhance its features, making it an ideal choice for protecting a range of components.
