TVS - Diodes are one of the many different types of electrical components available on the market today. TGL41-24-E3/97 are a type of TVS diode with specific properties that are often advantageous in certain applications. Knowing how they work and what fields of application they are best suited to can go a long way to helping a device designer choose the most appropriate components.

What are TVS-Diodes?

TVS stands for Transient Voltage Suppressor, which showcases the purpose of these diodes. They are used to suppress any transient voltages or spikes that pose a risk to the circuitry of other components. Essentially, these devices stand guard over other components within a circuit, protecting them against any unexpected voltage. They act as and behave like others forms of diode, but they are specifically designed to provide increased resilience to overvoltage or transients.

TGL41-24-E3/97 Application Field

The TGL41-24-E3/97 is a type of unidirectional TVS diode, which are often used to provide surge protection for exposed circuits or operations that (due to their nature) deal with frequent, unpredictable transients or voltage spikes. These sorts of applications find TVSdiodes beneficial because they can be precisely tailored to limit the specific voltages and forces necessary to protect other components. As an example, a DC motor control may need an unidirectional TVS diode to protect it from powerful voltage disconnects, whereas a driver control system might require bidirectional protection.

TGL41-24-E3/97 Working Principle

The working principle of these diodes is relatively straightforward. When voltage (whether from a power surge or a driver control system) reaches the breakdown voltage of the diode, the diode starts to conduct current. This helps absorb the surge or excess voltage, protecting the other components in the circuit. Current travels in one direction and is then allowed to dissipate in order to be neutralized. One callout to note however is that the device type and characteristics of the protection circuits are not impacted by the direction of the transient.

The TGL41-24-E3/97 in particular has been designed and put together with very specific components to provide an optimal protection. With its less than 1nA leakage current capability, it has been designed to act as something known as an overvoltage crowbar switching device. This means it can quickly switch out where appropriate in cases of overvoltage.

Conclusion

In conclusion, TVS-diodes, and more specifically the TGL41-24-E3/97, offer a great deal of benefits in certain applications. Unidirectional TGL41-24-E3/97 provide surge protection against intense voltage spikes and other overvoltage phenomena, drastically reducing their damaging effect on other components in the system. The relatively straightforward working principle and the complex components ensures fast acting but safe protection for other components, making them essential components in many designs.
