TVS diodes are an invaluable device to protect vulnerable electronic circuits against transient voltage surges. SMP16A-M3/85A is one of the newer types of TVS Diodes used to prevent lightning strikes, electrostatic discharges, and other high voltage surges from damaging your electrical equipment. It is a three-phase (3-P) TVS diode with a peak surge power rating of 3000 watts (W).

The SMP16A-M3/85A consists of three semiconductor diodes which are arranged in a multi-channel structure. The diode structure has two metalized areas which make contact with the leads to provide a low forward voltage drop. The diode can be used to protect a wide range of devices, from electronic circuits in portable devices to automotive, aviation, and medical electronics.

The working principle of the SMP16A-M3/85A is fairly simple. When external surge voltages above a certain threshold are present, the three semiconductor layers of the diode absorb it and divert it away from the protected equipment. This protects the equipment from damage due to overvoltage and helps to ensure its long-term reliability.

The SMP16A-M3/85A is able to handle 3000 watts peak power and a maximum clamping voltage of 600V, making it an effective surge suppressor. It also has an average clamping voltage of 400V and a breakdown voltage of 412V, which makes it suitable for a wide range of applications.

When used in combination with other components such as current-limiting resistors, the SMP16A-M3/85A can provide even more efficient surge protection. The diode can be used to protect high power circuits such as motors and power supplies from voltage transients. It is also suitable for use in telecommunications, medical equipment, data centers, and other sensitive applications.

The SMP16A-M3/85A is a reliable, cost-effective solution for surge protection applications. It provides fast response time for short transients and can tolerate high sustained voltage, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications. With its high power rating, low leakage current, and robust design, the SMP16A-M3/85A is an ideal choice for protecting sensitive electronic equipment from ESD and other high voltage surges.
