SA16CAHB0G

SA16CAHB0G is a secondary breakover voltage TVS diode, which is used in a variety of end applications, including automotive, industrial and military. The diode is typically used to protect sensitive semiconductor components, such as microprocessors, from electrostatic discharge (ESD) that may occur during the manufacturing process or in end-use conditions. It is also suitable for connecting and protecting against voltage transients caused by fast switching loads, lightning, or other high-power waveforms. This diode can also be used for applications such as surge suppression, overvoltage protection, and line conditioning.

The SA16CAHB0G is a dual channel diodes, meaning that two diodes are connected in series, allowing for overvoltage protection on both the positive and negative sides of the circuit. Each diode is rated for a maximum pulse current of 18A peak, with a maximum reverse peak pulse power of 500W. Additionally, this diode has a reverse stand-off voltage range of 16V to 25V, with a peak pulse power dissipation at 25°C of 1.6KW.

In order to ensure optimal performance and robust protection, the SA16CAHB0G is designed with a unique double schottky diode architecture. This architecture helps to reduce the effects of electrostatic discharge (ESD) and transient voltage spikes. It also offers robust ESD protection, allowing for higher surge suppression performance than traditional diode designs.

During normal operation, the SA16CAHB0G acts like a regular diode and allows current to flow in only one direction. When a transient voltage spike occurs, the diode starts to conduct current and divert it to ground. This helps to protect sensitive components from damage by ensuring that the voltage does not exceed a certain level. The diode will then revert to its normal state once the transient voltage has subsided.

The SA16CAHB0G is an ideal overvoltage protection solution for a variety of end applications. Its dual-channel design allows for robust protection on both the positive and negative sides of the circuit, while its high-temperature performance and excellent surge suppression performance make it well-suited for applications in harsh environments. This diode is typically used in automotive, industrial, and military applications, as well as for line conditioning and surge suppression.
