SMLJ7.0AE3/TR13

Transient voltage protection Supplies (TVS-Diodes) have become increasingly important components in protecting electronic units from exposure to high voltage events. The television industry is now heavily reliant on them, as they provide the protection against damaging voltage surges that can occur when turning on or off devices. The SMLJ7.0AE3/TR13 TVS-Diodes are a cost-effective solution for providing robust over-voltage protection to the television industry.

The SMLJ7.0AE3/TR13 consist of a bi-directional silicon diode array that can clamp or dissipate a high amount of energy to help protect against significant over-voltage conditions. It is designed to provide repeatable and predictable protection against 8/20μs surge pulses in the range of ±3KV, and has a maximum clamping voltage of less than 11V. This makes the SMLJ7.0AE3/TR13 a perfect solution for protecting against the common over-voltage pulses that are predicted to occur when turning on or off televisions, as well as providing adequate protection against power spikes and dips while the television is in operation.

In order to make the SMLJ7.0AE3/TR13 effective, it should be installed directly across the input/output line that is to be protected from over-voltage. This means that the device should be connected in parallel with the component to be protected, with the anode of the TVS-Diode connected to the positive line and the cathode connected to the negative line. Doing so ensures that the device is effectively in a low impedance state, allowing the TVS-Diode to clamp any voltage increases quickly and reliably.

The SMLJ7.0AE3/TR13 is a great choice for protecting TV’s from over-voltage pulse damage. Its low price and reliably protection make it an attractive choice for television manufacturers, and its bi-directional protection can provide the assurance that it can adequately protect against power in both directions. With its range of ±3KV, the SMLJ7.0AE3/TR13 can provide protection against a wide range of over-voltage events, and its 11V maximum clamping voltage ensures that over-voltage pulses are safely dissipated without damaging the component.
