TVS - Diodes

The TMPG06-13HE3/73 Transil TM, also known as TVS (transient voltage suppressor) diode is a device that responds instantaneously to a sudden voltage surge, and offers protection from voltage spikes, reducing the likelihood of equipment damage in the even of extreme electrical events.

The TMPG06-13HE3/73 Transil TM device is a hybrid protection unit that acts as a spark gap, a diode clamp, and a shunt regulator, creating a three-layer protection package. This technology is made up of two thyristors connected in parallel, with the gates connected to form a breakdown spark gap. This spark gap is designed to activate when a pre-set voltage level is reached, thus protecting the circuit from transient over-voltage.

Application Areas

The TMPG06-13HE3/73 Transil TM device is used in a variety of applications, ranging from automotive systems to medical electronics. It is most commonly used in the automotive industry, providing surge protection for engine control units, dashboards, and airbags. In the industrial sector, the device is often used as a controller within power supplies and as a sensor for controlling the outputs of motor drives. In the medical field, the diode is often used in cardiac pacemakers and as a protection for medical imaging systems.

The device is also widely used within consumer electronics, such as computers, televisions, mobile phones, tablets, and audio equipment. The surge protection offered by the device helps to protect these products from destructive voltage transients.

Working Principle

The TMPG06-13HE3/73 Transil TM device works on the principle of avalanche voltage breakdown. When the device is subject to high voltage transients, the built-in spark gap is activated, resulting in a tiny explosion within the component.

This explosion quickly triggers the avalanche current and voltage breakdown, which clamps the voltage. This reduces the voltage back to an acceptable and safe level in a matter of nanoseconds, so as to protect the circuit from the over-voltage, and allow the circuit to operate as normal.

The TMPG06-13HE3/73 Transil TM device is a multi-functional, hybrid protection unit, offering surge protection, capacitor discharge protection, and shunt regulation.
