TVS - Diodes

A TVS, or Transient Voltage Suppressor, is a type of diode that is used to protect electronic circuits from electrostatic discharge (ESD) and electrical transients. One of the most popular TVS diodes is the MXRT100KP51AE3. This diode is a Bi-Directional (ESD) Protection Array, designed for direct connection to low voltage and logic level signals. It has an operating voltage of 3.3V - 5.5V and a low capacitance of 0.30pF. In this article, we will discuss the application field and working principle of the MXRT100KP51AE3.

Application Field:

The MXRT100KP51AE3 TVS diode is designed to provide protection from ESD events up to IEC61000-4-2 Level 4, which is an air-discharge voltage of 8kV and a contact-discharge voltage of 16kV. It is well suited for applications such as Bluetooth, Ethernet, USB 3.0, and general purpose digital signal lines. The diode is available in DFN1410, SOT143 and SOT235 packages, making it well suited for portable devices that are exposed to high levels of ESD.

Working Principle:

When an electronic device is exposed to an ESD event, the MXRT100KP51AE3 diode will absorb the energy from the transient and effectively divert it away from the device. This is accomplished through the diode\'s electrostatically activated junctions, which allow current to flow in both directions. The diode will break down as its operating voltage is exceeded, creating a current path that is capable of dissipating the energy from the ESD event. If the transient is powerful enough, the diode may be destroyed in the process, thus protecting the device.

The MXRT100KP51AE3 TVS diode is an excellent choice for protecting low voltage and logic level devices from ESD events. It is available in multiple packages, making it well suited for portable devices, and its low capacitance ensures a minimal effect on the signal integrity of the device. With its reliable performance and high-level protection, the MXRT100KP51AE3 is an ideal solution for any application.
