SP1001-05VTG

TVS - Diodes are an important component in any circuit, and the SP1001-05VTG is an excellent example. Utilising a reverse-polarity structure, this product offers superior surge current and voltage capabilities, providing the best possible protection for your components.

These components are primarily used in low-voltage protection devices such as overvoltage protection circuits, automotive electronics installations, and various industrial applications. The SP1001-05VTG is designed to be a bi-directional protection diode with a reverse conducting capability up to 500mA and a stand-off voltage of 5V.

This component utilizes a metal-oxide-silicon (MOS) structure, which is composed of two MOS capacitors that are connected in series, each with the silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) in its center. In this way, the MOS capacitors provide a large capacitance value, resulting in a high reverse current capability. The SCR is used to control the voltage by controlling the on/off states of the gate.

When the voltage rises above the selected threshold, or when a surge current passes through the component, the gate opens and the current passes through the SCR, controlling the voltage and preventing the circuit from malfunctioning. The MOS capacitors, meanwhile, act as a filter to absorb the excess current and then dissipate it as heat.

The SP1001-05VTG is a very durable component, with an MTTF of greater than 2 million hours. This makes it perfect for use in a wide variety of products and applications, and it can provide reliable protection in even the harshest conditions. Due to its small size, the component is also easy to install in many types of devices, including PCs, medical devices, automotive electronics, and more.

In summary, the SP1001-05VTG is an excellent choice for any application which requires reliable overvoltage protection. The component is capable of withstanding high surge currents and is extremely durable, providing long-term reliability even in the most rigorous environments.
