TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) diodes are designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from high voltage voltage transients. These devices, which are also often referred to as surge suppressors, clip the voltage to a safe level and thus protect the equipment. The SDC36C.TCT is one such TVS diode, and this article will discuss its application and working principle in detail.

Application of the SDC36C.TCT

The SDC36C.TCT is a 3.0 amp transient voltage suppressor device, with a working voltage range of 12-526 volts and a working temperature range of -55°C - 150°C. It is well-suited for use in automotive, consumer, industrial and telecom applications. Its specialized design makes it suitable for protecting against surge and ESD contamination, making it a great choice for protecting against power interruption. It also features superior ESD resistance and transient suppression capabilities.

The SDC36C.TCT has a peak power rating of 1500 watts, with a response time of 5-10 nanoseconds. It offers excellent protection from high-frequency transients, such as lightning strikes and electrostatic discharge (ESD). Its unidirectional design makes it perfectly suited for protecting against ESD events, and its low voltage leakage provides protection against overvoltage.

Working Principle of the SDC36C.TCT

The SDC36C.TCT is a unidirectional TVS diode, working on the principle of a “crowbar”. When the voltage exceeds the breakdown voltage, the diode is triggered and the current is forced to flow in the opposite direction. This causes a short circuit in the system, and the voltage is clamped to a safe level. The device is designed so that it will always reset itself after a transient event.

The diode also features an avalanche breakdown mechanism. When the voltage exceeds the avalanche breakdown voltage, the current is allowed to flow in the reverse direction without causing a short circuit. The avalanche breakdown voltage is usually higher than the breakdown voltage, ensuring optimal protection.

The SDC36C.TCT also features a variety of protection against overvoltage. It is designed to dissipate the energy of overvoltage transients, thus preventing damage to sensitive components. It also features a low voltage leakage rate, as well as a wide operating temperature range.

Conclusion

The SDC36C.TCT is a 3.0 amp transient voltage suppressor device, offering excellent protection against surge and ESD contamination. Its unidirectional design is well-suited for protecting against ESD events, and its low voltage leakage rate and wide range of operating temperatures make it an ideal choice for protecting against power interruption. Its working principle is based on a “crowbar” design, using an avalanche breakdown mechanism to ensure optimal protection.
