TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) diodes have become increasingly important in circuit protection and have been widely used in hobbyist, automotive, industrial, and military devices for decades. The decreasing cost and improved reliability has made them attractive for use in commercial applications. The SZSMF-36AT1G is a unidirectional surface mount TVS diode designed to provide protection from high voltage transient events over a wide operating temperature range. It is rated for 36V across a 1-ohm load, and is capable of sustaining up to 1A of peak pulsed current.

Application Field

Due to its high voltage and current ratings, the SZSMF-36AT1G is ideally suited for protecting communications ports and data lines in devices such as printers, displays, and routers. It can also be used in automotive applications such as ECUs, ABS systems, and airbag control modules. Additionally, it is a popular choice for protecting circuits from the potentially damaging effects of ESD and lightning.

Working Principle

TVS diodes use a base-emitter voltage drop to transfer energy from the applied voltage above the breakdown voltage to the output, providing protection from overvoltage transients. When the TVS diode begins to exceed its reverse breakdown voltage, it will enter a high current conduction mode known as avalanche breakdown. This current is limited by the internal PN junction gain of the device. As the reverse voltage increases further, the device will switch back into its blocked state after dissipating the applied energy. The rating of the diode determines how much energy it is able to dissipate, so it is important to select the correct device for your application.

The SZSMF-36AT1G is designed to provide superior ESD and transient protection for wide voltage and current ranges. Its low clamping voltage ensures that it does not affect the signal integrity of the protected systems. Its small package size makes it an ideal choice for protecting circuits in space-constrained applications. The device’s construction also allows for thermal tracking and additional power dissipation, making it a reliable and durable choice for protecting circuits.
