TV15C131JB-G

TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressors) diodes are components used to protect sensitive electronic components from high voltage transients; they are the technology of choice in modern high-speed circuit designs. Among the many types available in the market is the TVS15C131JB-G, a voltage clamping device that includes two avalanche breakdown diodes connected in reverse polarity. It can protect circuits from voltage surges up to 1500 Volts.

Application fields for the TVS15C131JB-G device include personal computers, telecom equipment, home appliances, automotive electronics, and advanced medical instruments. It can also be used for surge current protection in various electronic systems since its peak current rating is 1.5KA. Computers, modems, and telecoms equipment are the most popular applications for the TVS15C131JB-G.

The working principle behind TVS15C131JB-G is simple yet efficient. It consists of two avalanche breakdown diodes connected in reverse polarity, so that when a voltage transient occurs, one of the diodes breaks down and clamps the voltage. The device allows for a very fast response to large current spikes, since its breakdown voltage is much lower than the clamp voltage, allowing it to shut off the current almost immediately. The device also provides over-voltage protection to the circuit, limiting the maximum output voltage. This makes it ideal for protecting sensitive circuits from over-voltage transients.

In addition, the TVS15C131JB-G is designed with surge current rating of up to 1.5KA, which makes it suitable for a wide range of applications. For example, it can be used to protect high-speed memory channels, motherboards, SSDs, and other components from over-voltage transients. This device is also designed with an operating temperature range from -55°C to +125°C, making it capable of withstanding temperatures in harsh industrial and automotive environments.

Overall, the TVS15C131JB-G is an ideal TVS diode for protecting sensitive electronics from high voltage transients. Its fast response time, low clamp voltage, and high surge current rating make it suitable for a variety of applications, including computers, telecoms, home appliances, automotive electronics, and medical equipment. Its ability to withstand temperatures from -55°C to +125°C also makes it a great device for protecting circuits from over-voltage transients in harsh industrial and automotive environments.
