TVS – Diodes is a family of components commonly used in the electrical industry. The SMLJ78CA-TP is part of this family, and is used to protect against transients (spikes) on a device’s power supply line. It is a unidirectional, low capacitance, low inductance, low power device designed to protect a device’s power supply from transients.

The SMLJ78CA-TP is a three-pin, surface-mount diode with two terminals, an anode, and a cathode. The cathode serves as the input and is connected to the power supply line. The anode serves as the output, and is connected to the circuit’s ground line. The third terminal, known as the body diode, is connected to the anode and serves as a bypass, allowing current to pass through the diode when the power supply is off.

The SMLJ78CA-TP is designed to protect your device’s power supply from overvoltage and ESD transients. It uses an avalanche breakdown mechanism to divert current away from the power supply lines and protect it. When an overvoltage occurs on one of the power supply lines, the SMLJ78CA-TP will divert the excess current away from the line, protecting the device from damage.

The SMLJ78CA-TP also protects against ESD (electrostatic discharge) transients. In this case, the diode is used to shield the device from sudden and damaging charge spikes that may come from a variety of sources. The SMLJ78CA-TP uses the same avalanche breakdown mechanism and current diversion technique to protect against ESD transients. This helps prevent costly damage to sensitive components.

The SMLJ78CA-TP is designed to work in a variety of applications, including but not limited to, automotive, consumer electronics, and industrial applications. The diode has a peak pulse power rating of 1500W (10/1000 μs waveform) at 25°C, making it well-suited for typical consumer electronic applications. It is also available in a variety of package sizes, allowing it to be used in space-constrained designs.

The SMLJ78CA-TP is a versatile, reliable, and economical solution to protecting against overvoltage and ESD transients. Its avalanche breakdown mechanism and current diversion technique effectively protect against voltage and charge spikes while providing reliable and efficient operation. It can be used in a variety of different applications, making it a popular choice in many different types of designs.
