TVS - Diodes are one of the most important components in the electronics industry. They are used to protect electronic equipment from electrical hazards such as overvoltages, transient voltages, and ESDs (electrostatic discharge). The PGSMAJ17CA R3G is an example of the TVS - Diode which is specifically designed for Automotive applications, Automotive High Reliability, and High Efficiency.

TVS - Diodes are formed by connecting two or more PN junctions in series or parallel to obtain a desired clamping voltage. This working principle is based on the Zener diode characteristic which the junction breakdown voltage Vz. This voltage is usually determined by the doping concentrations of the material of the diode. A PN junction diode will allow the flow of current in forward bias when the applied voltage is greater than the breakdown voltage Vz. When a reverse bias voltage is applied on the diode, it will result in the formation of a depletion region which prevents the flow of current in reverse direction. However, this reverse bias voltage is limited to Vz. If the reverse voltage exceeds Vz, then the current will start flowing in the reverse direction, which may lead to electrical hazards such as overvoltages, transient voltages, and ESDs.

PGSMAJ17CA R3G is specially designed for Automotive applications, Automotive High Reliability, and High Efficiency. It is a TVS Diode with a breakdown voltage of 17 V.
