SMBG6.5CA-M3/52

TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) diodes are a special type of semiconductor device that was developed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from electrical overstress due to transients. The SMBG6.5CA-M3/52 is a TVS diode specifically designed for transienst voltage suppression.

Application Field

The SMBG6.5CA-M3/52 is ideal for use in automotive and industrial circuit protection applications. The device features an on-state working voltage of 6.5V and a breakdown voltage of 32V, making it an ideal choice for use in situations where high voltage transients are a factor. This device can also help to protect circuits from ESD (electrostatic discharge) and EMI (electromagnetic interference) events. The high current capability of the device makes it suitable for protecting equipment in harsh environments as well.

Working Principle

The working principle of this type of device is based on a standard diode junction, meaning that current is allowed to flow in one direction only. The main difference with a TVS diode is that it provides a much higher breakdown voltage. This allows it to operate as a clamping device if the voltage exceeds the breakdown voltage, clamping the voltage to a safe, predetermined level known as its “clamping voltage”. The SMBG6.5CA-M3/52 boasts a low stand-off voltage of 6.5V and a fast response time of 5ns when subjected to transients.

The device is rated for a peak pulse power of 250W and a maximum clamping voltage of 32V, allowing it to protect sensitive circuits from overvoltage transients. This device also features a low leakage current of 5mA to help reduce power consumption. The SMBG6.5CA-M3/52 is an ideal choice for applications that require a reliable level of protection with a fast response time and reliable performance.
