TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) diodes, or Thyristors, are solid state components used to protect against transient overvoltages and provide an effective surge protection. They are designed to limit voltage surges such as high energy spikes and other transient overvoltages in order to protect delicate circuits from damage due to such sources. TVS diodes are particularly suitable for protecting electronic equipment from damage caused by lightning and electrostatic discharge (ESD). P1800ADL61 is a special type of Thyristor, which is designed to protect equipment from various types of transient voltage spikes.

P1800ADL61 is a unidirectional device with a breakdown voltage of 6000 Volts. Its high surge capability protects sensitive components and equipment from both positive and negative transient overvoltages. It features a low resistance of 8.7 milli Ohms, which facilitates its low energy spike discharge and fast response time. The maximum peak pulse current rating of P1800ADL61 is 180 Amps with a maximum peak reverse voltage (VR) of 400 Volts.

To understand the working principle of P1800ADL61, it is important to understand the operating concept of a Thyristor. A Thyristor is a semi-conductor device consisting of four alternating N and P layers of Silicon which form a rectifier junction. The alternating layers will block the current flow until the breakdown voltage is exceeded. When this happens, the junction becomes conductive and the device is switched on.

In the case of P1800ADL61, it consists of two Thyristors connected in series, where one is a NPN Thyristor and the other is a PNP Thyristor. When a voltage above the breakdown voltage is applied, both the Thyristors will simultaneously switch on, resulting in the free flow of current in the forward direction. Furthermore, the device also offers over-voltage and over-current protection by providing current limiting and temperature compensation.

P1800ADL61 is most suitable for industrial automation and home appliance applications, where it can help protect sensitive electronic devices such as computers, televisions and appliances from high energy spikes and other transient overvoltages. It can also be used in automotive, telecom, medical and MIL-spec/industrial applications. The device offers high peak power dissipation, low clamping voltage, high forward surge capability and protection from over-voltage and over-current conditions.

Thus, it can be concluded that P1800ADL61 is an efficient and reliable device for protection of electronic equipment from overvoltages and overcurrents. It is capable of withstanding high surge currents and providing fast response and high peak power dissipation, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
