TVS diode, also known as Transient Voltage Suppresion diode, is an expansive family of electrostatic or reverse polarity protection devices commonly used to protect sensitive electronic circuits from overvoltage transients generated by lightning strikes, accidental switching and electrostatic discharges, among other sources. A TVS diode is designed to absorb a high voltage transient, or surge, and to channel it safely to ground with minimal energy and voltage dispersion. The PTVS12VP1UP is one such type of TVS diode.

Application Field

This type of TVS diode is widely used in various industrial, consumer, automotive, telecom and IT electronic applications. It is designed to protect your equipment from over-voltage transients in normal 5V applications. It also provides protection in combination circuits, such as in USB applications. This type of TVS diode can also be used to protect any device from damaging voltage spikes.

Working Principle

This type of TVS diode works by quickly absorbing excess power in the form of voltage and diverting it away from the circuit. It is designed to activate when the voltage surge surpasses a certain threshold, containing the associated current to safe levels. When the normal load voltage is restored, the TVS diode will return to a standby state and be ready for use in the next energy surge.

The PTVS12VP1UP is designed to handle a surge current of 115amp with a maximum surge voltage of 575 volts. This type of TVS diode is able to achieve these levels of protection due to a combination of pressure and thermal control. When all the electrical criteria are met, the TVS diode will shift into a low current-to-voltage mode and its resistance will increase rapidly, providing surge protection to the connected circuit.

Conclusion

The PTVS12VP1UP is a type of TVS diode designed to provide surge protection for a wide range of applications, ranging from consumer applications to industrial, automotive, telecom and IT electronic applications. It is able to absorb transient voltage spikes, up to 575 volts, and divert them safely to ground with minimal dispersion. This type of TVS diode is able to achieve this level of protection due to a combination of pressure and thermal control.
