TVS (transient voltage suppressor) diodes are becoming more and more popular due to their ability to provide reliable protection to various electronic devices. One of the most popular TVS diodes is the MXSMLG20AE3, which is designed to provide robust protection against overvoltage and electrostatic discharge when used in many industrial and consumer electronic devices.

The MXSMLG20AE3 is a bi-directional diode that features a low on-state resistance of 2.6 ohms and a transient leakage current of less than 1nA. The diode also features a steady-state clamping voltage of 20V and an overvoltage clamping voltage of 28V. It is capable of dissipating up to 2W of power and can operate at temperatures up to 125°C.

The working principle of the MXSMLG20AE3 is relatively simple. When an overvoltage occurs, the diode will conduct current and clamp the voltage to a safe level. In other words, it will divert excess current away from the connected device. At the same time, it will also protect against electrostatic discharge (ESD), which can cause damage to integrated circuits.

The MXSMLG20AE3 is widely used in a variety of industrial and consumer electronic applications. Some of the most common applications include the protection of control circuitry of computers, printers, digital cameras, telephones, and other appliances. It can also be used to protect remote controls, power supplies, engine ECUs, and other devices that are susceptible to ESD.

Overall, the MXSMLG20AE3 is a highly reliable and cost-effective TVS diode that offers excellent protection against overvoltage and electrostatic discharge. It is widely used in a variety of consumer and industrial applications, and its low on-state resistance ensures a reliable and robust performance.
