TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) diodes are commonly used by electronics engineers to provide protection from electrical surges and electrostatic discharges (ESD). The SMAJ36A-13 is one of the many types of TVS diodes available. This article will describe the application field and working principle of the SMAJ36A-13.

The SMAJ36A-13 is a unidirectional, bi-directional, and bidirectional transient voltage suppressor diode. It is typically used in highly integrated circuits to protect them against transient voltage and over-voltage caused by lightning strikes, system malfunctions, and electrostatic discharge. It offers superior performance, reliability, and efficiency, and is suitable for use in high surge and ESD applications.

The SMAJ36A-13 is designed to provide protection from transient voltages up to 37V. It can be used in automotive, industrial, commercial, and consumer electronics applications. It is also designed to withstand ESD IEC 61000-4 levels 4 (± 8kV contact discharge) and 5 (± 15kV Air gap discharge).

The working principle of the SMAJ36A-13 is simple. When a transient voltage (surge) occurs, the diode switches to the conducting state, allowing the current to flow. When the surge is over, the diode automatically switches back to the non-conductive state, preventing the reverse flow of current. This is how the SMAJ36A-13 ensures that your electrical devices are protected against voltage surges and ESD.

In addition to providing protection from transient voltage and ESD, the SMAJ36A-13 is also designed to protect your system from other undesirable phenomena, such as power-induced noise, short circuit current flows, voltage frequency oscillations, and among other. It is rated to withstand up to 500W of peak pulse power (10/1000μs waveform). It also has a maximum clamping voltage of 37V, and a maximum clamping current of 8A (at 15A pulse current).

All in all, the SMAJ36A-13 is a cost-effective, reliable, and highly efficient transient voltage suppressor diode. It is designed to provide protection from transient voltages, ESD, power-induced noise, and more. With its robust design, high surge and ESD ratings, and maximum clamping voltage and current ratings, it is an ideal choice for a wide range of applications.
