MXPLAD7.5KP20CAE3 Circuit Protection

TVS diodes are an important component in many circuits of contemporary electronic systems. The MXPLAD7.5KP20CAE3 is a transient voltage suppressor (TVS) device capable of handling up to 20 amps of peak pulse current and minimizing transient voltage up to 8000W peak pulse power. This component is designed to protect circuits from unwanted transient voltage spikes and can be used in a variety of applications.

The MXPLAD7.5KP20CAE3 TVS diode is typically used in high-end consumer equipment such as LCD TVs, computers, gaming consoles, audio video equipment, digital audio players, and other similar applications. It is also used in industrial equipment such as portable grid-tie inverters, solar inverters, automotive equipment, and other types of industrial-grade electrical and electronic equipment.

This diode has an operating voltage range of 7.5V to 20V and can handle peak pulse current up to 20A. It also features a low collar voltage of 5.5V, which provides a voltage offset to off-state voltage and prevents it from exceeding its breakdown voltage. The diode also has an extremely low reverse leakage current of 0.1μA.

The working principle of the MXPLAD7.5KP20CAE3 diode involves the breakdown of the junction between the anode and cathode of the diode, which causes a voltage differential to appear across the two terminals. When a transient voltage spike occurs, the junction voltage is increased, and the resulting current flows through the junction and is diverted to the ground, thus protecting the circuit.

In summary, the MXPLAD7.5KP20CAE3 is a highly reliable transient voltage suppressor designed to protect electronic circuits from unwanted transient voltage spikes. It is suitable for a wide range of applications, particularly in high-end consumer equipment and industrial equipment, and its low collar voltage, wide operating voltage range, and low reverse leakage current make it a reliable choice for many different applications.
