TVS – Diodes is an important component of the electronic industry and the SM1615E3/TR13 is commonly used in a variety of applications. In this article, we will discuss the applications and working principles of the SM1615E3/TR13.

These diodes are designed to provide high level of protection against electrical noise and transient voltage at extremely low levels. The maximum clamping voltage of the SM1615E3/TR13 is 16V, While the peak current capability is 15A, making it suitable for a wide range of applications from consumer electronics to heavy-duty industrial applications. In addition, they offer fast reaction times and low capacitance levels, allowing for efficient current flow.

The SM1615E3/TR13 is most commonly used to protect integrated circuits, microprocessors, motors, electronic controls, micro-controllers and other sensitive circuits from electrical over-voltage. They are also used in automotive, medical and telecommunications applications. It can also be used to reduce EMI, RFI, lightning strike, and electrical surges.

In order to understand the working principle of the SM1615E3/TR13, one must first understand the basic principles of diodes. A diode is a two-terminal electrical device that allows current to flow in only one direction. When a diode is operated in the forward-biased region, it allows current to flow freely. However, when a diode is operated in the reverse-bias configuration, a small amount of current can pass through the diode and this is known as the reverse leakage current. This is where the SM1615E3/TR13 differs from other diodes.

When the reverse voltage across the SM1615E3/TR13 increases beyond its rated value, the diode starts to conduct a large amount of current. This current is limited by the internal series resistors, which act as a clamp, limiting the voltage across the diode. This design ensures that the SM1615E3/TR13 can efficiently absorb large surges of electrical current without damaging the connected components. This protection makes it ideal for sensitive electronic components.

The SM1615E3/TR13 is also designed to have a low capacitance, allowing it to maintain a fast reaction time. In addition, the diode has an extremely low insertion and total capacitance, which helps to reduce the level of noise in the circuit. This improved protection also helps to reduce the effects of EMI, RFI and electrical interference.

The SM1615E3/TR13 is an ideal choice for a variety of applications, due to its high performance and ability to provide reliable protection against electrical noise and transient voltages. It is also a cost effective solution, providing efficient protection with limited economic costs. As such, they are widely used in the automotive, medical and telecommunications industry. to protect sensitive circuits and reduce the risk of potential damage.
