TVS, or transient voltage suppressors, are devices used to protect sensitive electronic equipment from sudden power surges, voltage spikes, induced transients, and load transients. The SMBJ36D-M3/I is a TVS diode specifically designed to protect both circuit elements and equipment from such transients. This specific diode features low leakage current, fast response time, and a wide operating range.

The SMBJ36D-M3/I is built to withstand a peak pulse power of 600W, a reverse voltage of 36V, and a breakover voltage of 5.6V. It is also able to self-recover in the event of a voltage surge. This diode is often used in telecommunications, computers, consumer electronics, automotive electronics, and any other application where surge protection is necessary.

The working principle of the SMBJ36D-M3/I involves utilizing the Zener effect. Zener diodes have a characteristic breakdown voltage at which they begin to conduct in the reverse direction, with a linear current-voltage curve. This diode utilizes this phenomenon to offer excellent protection from high energy transients.

When normal operating conditions exist, this TVS diode simply acts as an insulator. When an overvoltage or transient occurs, the SMBJ36D-M3/I quickly begins to conduct, clamping the voltage to a safe level and driving current away from vulnerable components. With its 5.6V breakover voltage, it is able to protect against all voltages lower than its clamping point.

Once the transient is gone, the TVS diode will automatically resume its insulating state, thus providing excellent surge protection. Its fast response time makes it ideal for applications that require protection from high-speed transients.

In addition to its lightning protection capabilities, the SMBJ36D-M3/I also offers protection from electrostatic discharges (ESDs) as well as overvoltages caused by inductive and capacitive loads. Its low leakage current also helps to reduce power consumption, making it more energy efficient.

The SMBJ36D-M3/I is a versatile TVS diode with fast response time and a wide range of applications. Its ability to protect sensitive electronics in the event of a transient makes it an invaluable component in many electronic circuits.
