Transient Voltage Suppression (TVS) diodes are a type of diode used to protect sensitive electronic devices from transient voltage overshoots or surges. The TVS diode SMLJ24CE3/TR13 is a glass passivated surge protected diode that offers bi-directional and "unidirectional" protection, designed specifically for ESD protection. The SMLJ24CE3/TR13 diode is rated for 24 volts, and has a peak power dissipation capacity of 600W (12A).

Transient voltages can be caused by several different sources, including lightning strikes, electrostatic discharges, machine switching, solar radiation, and power line inductions. These voltages can easily damage sensitive electronic components if not properly protected. The SMLJ24CE3/TR13 diode is designed to quickly, and safely, absorb and dissipate any transient voltage that may be encountered. This reduces the risk of damage to sensitive components.

The SMLJ24CE3/TR13 offers two types of protection; bi-directional and "unidirectional" protection. The bi-directional protection offers protection from transient voltages coming from both directions- meaning both the positive and the negative leads are both protected against any overvoltage surges. The "unidirectional" protection offers protection from voltages only travelling in one direction. This type of protection is used in applications where protection is only required for voltages travelling in one direction, such as in motor control circuits.

The SMLJ24CE3/TR13 diode has a working principle based on a breakdown mechanism. As the voltage across the leads of the diode increases, it eventually reaches a point where the potential barrier between the leads breaks down, allowing current to flow. This breakdown voltage is known as the “breakdown voltage” or “clamping voltage” of the diode. At this breakdown voltage, the diode quickly absorbs and dissipates any transient voltage, protecting the component.

The SMLJ24CE3/TR13 diode has a wide range of applications in different electronic systems and circuits. It is commonly used in motor control circuits, solar energy power supplies, machine switching circuits, and automotive electronics. The diode is also popular in lightning and surge protection applications, as it is designed to absorb and dissipate high voltages. The SMLJ24CE3/TR13 is also used in sensitive electronics such as laptops, televisions, and cell phones, where protection against electrostatic discharges is required. The SMLJ24CE3/TR13 diode is also suitable for external lightning protection, offering superior surge protection for building services.

In conclusion, the SMLJ24CE3/TR13 is a powerful transient voltage suppression diode used to protect sensitive electronic devices from transient voltage surges. The diode offers bi-directional and "unidirectional" protection, and has a wide range of applications in various electronics systems and circuits. The SMLJ24CE3/TR13 diode has a working principle based on a breakdown mechanism, where as the voltage across the leads of the diode increases, it eventually reaches a point where the potential barrier between the leads breaks down, allowing current to flow. This quickly absorbs and dissipates any transient voltages, offering superior protection to the components.
