Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS diode) are semiconductor devices designed to protect sensitive electronic components from voltage transients generated by various forms of electrostatic discharge (ESD), electrical fast transients (EFT) and lightning.

SMAJ24A-13-F TVS diode is designed to protect against overvoltage transients and it absorbs transients up to 24Volts with a maximum peak pulse current of 110 amperes. It is an unidirectional ceramic-situated transient voltage suppressor (TVS) with low capacitance and high speed protection.

Application Field of SMAJ24A-13-F

The SMAJ24A-13-F is designed for ESD and transient protection applications in computers, automotive, telecommunications, audio, industrial, consumer and other systems that require high surge protection capabilities. It is suitable for applications where the device must be driven from an AC power supply line exceeding 24V. It is also used to protect sensitive electronic components from voltage transients and other forms of electrical disturbance.

Working Principle of SMAJ24A-13-F

TVS devices operate on the principle of avalanche breakdown. When a voltage greater than the diode’s breakdown voltage is applied, the diode\'s depletion region starts to increase and begins to heavily amplify the voltage applied across it. This excess voltage causes the diode to break down, allowing the current to flow through the device, clamping the voltage to a lower level and diverting the surge current away from the protected components. This is the principle by which a TVS diode, such as the SMAJ24A-13-F, works.

The SMAJ24A-13-F offers superior performance and superior protection against ESD and transients. It has an ultra-low capacitance and a fast response time, and can absorb peak pulse current up to 110 amperes while still maintaining an impressively low leakage current. This makes it an ideal choice for protection of high-speed sensitive components.

Since the SMAJ24A-13-F is an unidirectional device, only one polarity of voltage can be applied across it. This means that the diode can only be used to protect circuits from voltage overshoots in the positive direction. It is also important to note that the SMAJ24A-13-F is not suited for protecting against long durations of high-voltage transients.

Conclusion

The SMAJ24A-13-F is a unidirectional TVS diode designed to provide high-speed, low-capacitance protection against ESD and transient overvoltage in a variety of applications. It offers superior surge protection capabilities, and can absorb peak pulse currents up to 110 amperes while maintaining an ultra-low leakage current. It is a highly reliable device, well suited for protecting sensitive electronic circuit components.
