TVS (Transient Voltage Suppression) diodes are a type of semiconductor diode which is designed for the purpose of providing protection from transient voltage disturbances. The SMB10J16HE3/5B is a TVS diode designed to protect circuits from overvoltage transients induced by lightning and other disturbances. This diode is designed to help protect against overvoltage transients up to 5kV.

The SMB10J16HE3/5B is designed to provide protection for a wide variety of applications, from automotive electronics to power supplies and telecommunication equipment. Its compact surface-mount package makes it suitable for applications where board space is limited. It is also designed for low capacitance, which is important for high-speed signal lines. The high surge current capability of the device helps to ensure reliable operation when subjected to harsh environmental conditions.

The SMB10J16HE3/5B has two unique modes of operation. First, it operates in a surge current suppression mode, in which it is able to absorb and dissipate a large amount of energy ranging from tens of nanojoules to kilojoules. This helps to ensure that the delicate circuits in the device are not damaged by sudden voltage transients. The second operation mode is avalanche suppression, which helps to provide long-term protection against overvoltage transients. This avalanche suppression mode ensures that any transient voltages in the device do not exceed predetermined limits, thus helping to protect the delicate circuits.

The working principle of the SMB10J16HE3/5B is quite straightforward. When a voltage transient occurs, the diode begins to conduct current. As the voltage increases, the diode begins to absorb and dissipate the energy, therefore limiting the amount of energy that reaches the circuits in the device. The higher the voltage, the more current the diode can conduct. The higher the current, the more energy is dissipated, thereby providing greater protection to the device.

The SMB10J16HE3/5B is designed to provide reliable overvoltage protection for a wide variety of applications. Its small size and low capacitance make it suitable for use in applications where board space is limited. Furthermore, the high surge current capability and avalanche protection modes make it an ideal choice for devices operating in harsh environments.
