TVS devices are used to protect circuit components and devices from high voltage transients by neutralizing the impact on the components while diverting excess current to ground.  A Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode, like the popular SM16LC08C/TR13, is a unidirectional device that reacts very fast with a voltage overshoot for protecting downstream sensitive components or systems against destructive or momentary high-power surges or spikes. TVS are designed to divert or shunt the voltage spike away from sensitive devices, such as motors, computers, drivers, and switches, while still allowing the normal pulse width modulation to drive these devices.

The SM16LC08C/TR13 is a high speed diode arrays with two 6V bidirectional TVS diodes configured in a common anode configuration. The SM16LC08C/TR13 is designed to handle high power peak pulses with little to no overshoot over the rated power peak. The device\'s fast response time of 1ns ensures that the device can handle the most demanding applications for protection against high voltage transients.

The SM16LC08C/TR13 provides electrical protection from damaging overvoltages through a combination of peak power dissipation, reverse standoff voltage, and peak pulse current. Its reverse standoff voltage is 6V with a maximum peak pulse current of 8 A. The device is available in a tiny SOT-23 package, which helps minimize layout impact. The SM16LC08C/TR13 has an operating temperature range of -65°C to +125°C.

The SM16LC08C/TR13 works by diverting the excess current to ground, due to its very low resistance voltage characteristics. The TVS diode prevents the voltage spike from damaging the semiconductor devices by intervening quickly and reducing the D/C voltage. Afterward, the device\'s capacitive characteristics absorb the resulting power spike significantly. Thus, the SM16LC08C/TR13 provides superior protection of sensitive devices against transient overvoltages.

The SM16LC08C/TR13 is ideal for a variety of applications including motor control circuits, AC/DC adapters, computer power systems, automotive systems, and telecommunications. Its small size, fast response, and low leakage current make it a reliable choice for protecting sensitive devices from voltage surges that may cause device damage or breakdown. The wide operating temperature range of the SM16LC08C/TR13 further ensures its reliability in a wide variety of demanding applications.
