TVS – Diodes is a technology which helps in protecting the electronic devices from the effects of overvoltages, such as surges, electrostatic discharges, or anything that can cause disturbance or permanent damage to the device. TVS – Diodes are designed specifically for specific types of protection in multiple instances, such as Solid State Fillers, Solenoid Type, Transient Voltage Surge Suppression (TVSS), and Electrical Fuses. In this article, we will be discussing the application field and working principle of SMP17A-M3/84A, one of the latest version of TVS – Diodes.

The SMP17A-M3/84A is a type of TVS – Diode which is specifically designed to provide transient protection for TV and Radio receivers, LCD displays, and medical equipment. The device features a low capacitance of only one-pF and a fast response time of less than one microsecond. The diode is ideal for high-speed applications, such as protection against Electrostatic Discharge. The TVS diode also has an operating temperature range of -55°C to +175°C. This makes it suitable for use in applications which require operation at varying temperatures.

The TVS – Diode works with the help of a voltage applied across its terminals. The voltage, when exceeds the breakdown voltage of the diode, will cause it to conduct, thus providing protection to the device from transient voltage. Additionally, the diode also has the ability to function as a “crowbar” device in extreme cases, limiting the peak current in the circuit and providing further protection. The diode is also designed to provide protection from overvoltage. This is because the diode is designed to have a “breakdown” voltage, which means that once the voltage across its terminals exceeds this value, the diode will “break down”, causing it to conduct. By limiting the voltage and current, the diode will help to provide protection against transient and overpowering voltage.

In addition to these, the SMP17A-M3/84A also features a reverse breakdown voltage of 24V. This means that the diode can be used in applications where the operating voltage must exceed 24V in order to provide effective protection from transients. The device also has a junction capacitance of 5pF, which is very low compared to other TVS – Diodes and provides improved performance. The diode also features a maximum peak surge current rating of 6.3A, which is suitable for usage in applications that require high currents for protection.

In conclusion, the SMP17A-M3/84A is a type of TVS – Diode which is specifically designed to provide effective protection against transients and overpowering voltage. The device features a reverse breakdown voltage of 24V and a low capacitance of only one-pF, which makes it ideal for applications that require protection from fast transients. The diode also has a maximum peak surge current rating of 6.3A, making it suitable for applications which require large peak currents. The device is suitable for use in TV and Radio receivers, LCD displays, and medical equipment.
