PESD5V0S1BA/8F Circuit Protection

TVS - Diodes are used to protect sensitive electronics from over-voltage events such as electrostatic discharge (ESD) and lightning induced transients. The PESD5V0S1BA/8F is a unidirectional TVS diode, application field and with a working principle used to protect against ESD transients up to 8kV contact and 15kV air and transient pulses up to 40A 8/20 μs. It is housed in a small SOD-882 SMB package, so it is suitable for a wide variety of applications.

The device provides excellent clamping performance and low dynamic impedance for effective protection of sensitive electronic equipment. It has a dedicated built-in ESD protection element which can be used to protect sensitive electronic equipment from ESD voltage up to 8kV and to an amplitude of 15kV. The low dynamic impedance makes it highly effective in clamping transient pulses up to 40A 8/20 μs.

The protection element of the PESD5V0S1BA/8F operates by way of an avalanche breakdown of a special Zener diode. When a voltage higher than the avalanche voltage of the diode is applied, then a current components short circuits across the diode, thus reducing the input voltage applied to the sensitive electronic equipment. The design of the TVS diodes is such that the protection element responds quickly, typically within 1ns, providing an effective clamping of the voltage applied.

The TVS diode can also be used to provide protection against lightning surges. It can handle up to 10kA of lightning energy, reducing the risk of damaging vital equipment or systems. The low capacitance ensures a low-noise operation and the device’s constant, stable protection performance across a wide temperature range.

The PESD5V0S1BA/8F is suitable for a variety of applications, including automotive, industrial, consumer electronics, medical, and military markets. It is suitable for use in applications such as power supplies, DC/DC converters, automotive infotainment, automotive electronics, portable medical devices, consumer electronics, 5V and 12V industrial power supplies, and military systems.
