SM6S17ATHE3/I Application Field and Working Principle

TVS – Diodes provide surge and transient protection to reduce risk in electrostatic discharge and power surges. The SM6S17ATHE3/I is a transient voltage suppressor (TVS) device designed to protect sensitive electronics from voltage surges and transients in high speed, high power circuits. It has a robust construction that allows it to withstand significant overvoltage conditions and is ideal for industrial and automotive applications.

Application Field

The SM6S17ATHE3/I TVS Diode is designed for use as an industrial and automotive electrical protection device. It is used in applications such as motor control, data transfer, and power protection. It can also be used in communication systems, uninterruptible power supply systems, and automotive electronics. The SM6S17ATHE3/I is particularly well suited for automotive applications where its robust construction helps to withstand harsh automotive environment conditions.

Working Principle

The SM6S17ATHE3/I is a unidirectional transient voltage suppressor, meaning that it only suppresses transients in one direction. It is designed to suppress voltage surges, transients, and other overvoltage conditions. The device is constructed with a glass passivated junction, which helps to improve its reliability when exposed to harsh environmental conditions. When exposed to a surge or transient, the device will clip the voltage to a peak reverse voltage (VR) such that the device remains in its operational range.

The device is designed to work by diverting electrons away from a sensitive circuit, while simultaneously conducting current away from the circuit. When a transient occurs, the internal MOSFET of the device begins to turn on and begins to conduct current away from the circuit. This reduces or eliminates the overvoltage condition and protects the circuit from damage. The device then returns to its initial off-state, ensuring that the circuit remains protected from further transients.

The SM6S17ATHE3/I TVS Diode is well suited for automotive and industrial applications due to its robust construction and reliable operation. It can be used to protect against voltage surges, transients, and other overvoltage conditions, providing reliable protection for sensitive electronics. The device is well suited for use in automotive and industrial applications and is an ideal choice for protection against harsh environmental conditions.
