TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressors) devices, such as the V14P150PX2855, are an important type of protective protection tool. They provide a shield to guard against transient activities like malfunctions in power supply lines, power surges and voltage spikes caused by lightning. In order to do that, these devices divert the energy present in these transient events away from the protected components. This article will explore the application fields and working principles of this type of device.

Application Fields

As mentioned earlier, TVS devices form an essential part of protecting your sensitive equipment from transient events. These devices act like a surge arrester, clamping any transient voltage fields and making sure that they do not affect your connected circuit boards. This is why these devices are commonly used in many types of industries or settings. Examples include telecommunication, computer and consumer electronic systems, as well as automotive and industrial applications.

As these types of devices can handle a wide range of high surge currents, they can even be used in high-power switching circuits and rail networks. Equipping such networks with TVS devices can help prevent further damage to network components from transients.

Working Principle

The use of transient suppressors relies on the working principle of having an electromechanical device that is able to divert energy present in transient events away from the connected equipment. TVS devices are essentially a combination of varistors, MOVs (Metal Oxide Varistors) and avalanche diodes.

These various components are connected within the device in a series and parallel combination. To explain the working principle of this type of device, we first have to understand the nature of the individual components used. Each of the components present in a TVS device display different characteristics in terms of how they react to electric current and voltage.

The MOVs used in this type of device are designed to absorb any transient energy, which can then be safely directed away from the connected circuit boards. This is what protects the underlying electrical components. The Avalanche or Zener diodes used in these devices will also react differently when presented with transient energy.

These diodes are able to dissipate any energy present in the transients, while at the same time preventing any of the energy from spilling back into the protected circuit boards. Finally, instead of using high-voltage electrolytic capacitors, a varistor is used in these types of devices.

Again, this is for superior performance. A varistor will respond to the transient events in such a manner that any remaining energy will be discharged safely. With this combination of components, the TVS device is able to effectively divert any energy present in transient events away from the connected circuit boards and spare them from any damage.

In summary, TVS devices are a type of protective equipment that are used to protect against transient events. Examples of these events include power surges, voltage spikes and power supply line malfunctions. These devices work by using a combination of varistors, MOVs and avalanche diodes; each of which display different characteristics that work to dissipate and divert energy away from the connected circuit boards. This combination of components makes these devices an ideal choice for safeguarding your sensitive equipment against transient activities.
