The SPB160100E3 is an array of 16 individual silicon rectifiers which are used to protect automotive electronics from reverse polarity, over-voltage, and transient surges. This device operates as a rectifying diode, allowing current to flow in one direction but blocking it in the other. Additionally, it has a built-in ESD protection circuit which prevents damage from electrostatic discharge.

This device is ideal for use in automotive applications where space and cost are considerations, such as powertrains, body electronics, lighting, infotainment, and driver assistance systems. Its ability to handle up to 1500 volts makes it suitable for higher power and voltage applications, such as alternators, electric steering columns, and modules for detecting high-voltage signals. The low forward voltage drop of less than 1V ensures the use of minimal energy.

The SPB160100E3 is a 4-pin device and has two gate terminals (pins 2 and 4), and two cathode terminals (pins 1 and 3). Pin 1 is the anode terminal, which is connected to the positive power supply, and pin 3 is the cathode terminal, which is connected to ground. When the device is properly connected, current can flow from the anode to the cathode, but not the other way around. The two gate terminals (pins 2 and 4) are both connected to a control circuit, which can be used to switch the device on or off.

The SPB160100E3 can provide protection against current surges by limiting the voltage across the device. The device acts as a current-limiting element and will not turn on until the voltage is greater than its guaranteed breakover voltage. When the voltage is greater than the breakover voltage, the device begins to conduct and limits the voltage across it, reducing the risk of damage due to power surges. Furthermore, the enhanced surge capability of this device makes it suitable for automotive applications, where the electrical environment is often unpredictable and subject to sudden, large changes.

The SPB160100E3 is also designed to provide ESD protection for sensitive electronic components. The two gate terminals (pins 2 and 4) are connected to an ESD control circuit. This circuit monitors the voltage across the two gate terminals and clamps the voltage to a safe level during an electrostatic discharge event. By limiting the voltage across the device, ESD events are prevented from damaging the sensitive electronics in the application.

In conclusion, the SPB160100E3 is an array of 16 individual silicon rectifiers which are used in automotive applications. Its ability to handle up to 1500 volts and its low forward voltage drop make it suitable for high-voltage applications, while its enhanced surge capability and ESD protection circuit provide reliable protection against power surges and electrostatic discharge events. The device is easy to use, and its four-pin design ensures fast and easy installation.
