Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS) are devices used to protect electronic circuits from damage caused by transient voltages, such as overvoltage, electrostatic discharge (ESD), and electro magnetic interference (EMI). TVS diodes are the most commonly used components for these applications. The SMCJ16A-M3/9AT is a typical representative of a TVS diode, and has become the standard choice due to its wide range of applications and excellent performance.

Application Field: The SMCJ16A-M3/9AT is suitable for a wide range of different applications requiring the protection of sensitive electronic components from damaging transient voltages. These include consumer electronics, automotive electronics, industrial controllers, telecommunications equipment, as well as complex medical and military systems. It can be used in a variety of configurations, either as a single component or part of a larger circuit. The SMCJ16A-M3/9AT also features excellent ESD protection, with a working voltage of up to 16V. This makes it ideal for use in high-performance systems, and for applications where the voltage rating of the existing circuit must remain unchanged.

Working Principle: The SMCJ16A-M3/9AT is a unidirectional device, meaning it will only conduct electricity in one direction. This is achieved by the presence of a thin semiconductor layer, made up of two oppositely-doped semiconductor regions. When subjected to a voltage higher than its “breakdown” voltage, this layer will break down, allowing a current to flow. This current will be limited by the resistive component of the diode, limiting the maximum voltage applied to the circuit and protecting it from damage. When the voltage drops below the breakdown voltage, the diode will shut off, preventing any further current from flowing.

The SMCJ16A-M3/9AT is an excellent choice for protecting electronic circuits from transient overvoltages. Its wide range of applications and high performance make it an ideal choice for a variety of different applications. It is easy to use, reliable, and can be used in many different configurations. In addition, it offers excellent ESD protection, allowing for the use of high-performance systems without risking damage to the existing circuit.
