PGSMAJ85AHR3G Circuit Protection

TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressors) are a class of devices which protect sensitive electronic equipment, like computers and controllers, from electrical spikes. The PGSMAJ85AHR3G is a small-signal, bi-directional, unidirectional transient voltage suppressor diode. This device is specifically designed to protect data and communication lines and other related equipment connected to them from voltage surges generated as a result of a lightning strike or an electric overload.

The PGSMAJ85AHR3G is intended for low-current, low- voltage applications, and it features a small size package that makes it suitable in applications with restricted spacing. It features an active clamping factor of 85V and is able to to absorb up to 10A of surge current. The device is unpolarized, and it has two symmetric terminals so that it can operate in both directions. It is capable of providing overvoltage protection up to 55V with a breakdown voltage of 85V.

The PGSMAJ85AHR3G works by using a junction diode which is connected in reverse in order to provide a protection effect. This means that when the protection voltage is exceeded, the disconnection will activate and the power supply to the protected component or line will be immediately cut off, preventing any further damage from being done. In addition, this protection is instantaneous, meaning that it will provide protection even before the full surge of voltage has hit the system. This makes it ideal for sensitive electronic components that require quick and efficient protection against overvoltage.

The PGSMAJ85AHR3G is ideal for applications that need to be protected against lightning strikes and other transient voltage disturbances. It features a robust construction and is able to handle high levels of surge current with a high degree of accuracy. It also has a wide operating temperature range, allowing it to be used in a variety of industrial, automotive, medical, and consumer-oriented applications. In addition, the device offers exceptional protection against electrostatic discharge, making it a great choice for applications that are sensitive to ESD.

In conclusion, the PGSMAJ85AHR3G is a versatile and reliable TVS diode that provides exceptional protection against both overvoltage and electrostatic discharge. Its small size and wide operating temperature range make it suitable for a wide range of applications, while its high speed clamping and fast response times make it ideal for protecting sensitive electronic components in case of a voltage surge. This makes it an excellent choice for use in a variety of industrial, automotive, medical, and consumer-oriented applications.
