Transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diodes are designed and developed to protect valuable electronic components and equipment from overvoltage spikes and transients that could otherwise damage or destroy equipment. The VCAN26A2-03SHE3-08 is a bi-directional TVS diode that provides surge protection for systems that are exposed to transient voltages. It is one of the most popular TVS diodes, which is widely used in modern commercial and industrial applications.

Application Field

The VCAN26A2-03SHE3-08 is typically used for overvoltage protection, which is especially critical in consumer electronics applications. It can be used to protect sensitive circuits from transient voltages caused by ESD, lightning strikes, and static discharges. Other than this, it is also applicable in telecommunications, security and medical electronics, automotive and industrial applications. By using this specialized device, it is possible to increase the reliability and lifetime of any device or system that is prone to electrical damage due to overvoltage.

Working Principle

When a transient voltage is applied to the input terminals, the device immediately begins to conduct in order to suppress the voltage by clamping. This is achieved by the movement of minority carriers (holes and electrons) across the diode junction. This device is capable of withstanding fast transient pulses and can provide up to 36V of clamp protection. The device has a low clamping voltage of 13.2V and a very low leakage current of 0.7μA. It can also withstand up to 3A of forward bias current. The reverse standoff voltage and the maximum peak pulse power is also rated at 24V and 200W respectively.

This diode also has excellent surge waveform capabilities and is able to quickly switch between the “on” and “off” state in less than 10ns. It has a typical turn-on time of 1ns and a turn-off time of 8ns. The device also has good thermal stability and can withstanding operating temperatures of up to 150°C.

The device also has a high temperature stability unit which allows it to support a higher power temperature coefficient. This is an important feature that ensures that the device is able to maintain its rated performance even at higher temperatures. The device also has an excellent forward bias current recovery characteristic, which means that it is able to quickly recover from a high current overvoltage spike and resume normal operation.

In conclusion, the VCAN26A2-03SHE3-08 is a very reliable, high-performance bi-directional diode that is designed to protect sensitive circuits from overvoltage transients and spikes. It is suitable for use in a variety of telecommunications, automotive, security and medical applications. It has a low clamping voltage, a low leakage current and a high temperature stability unit. It can also withstanding high peak power ratings and has excellent surge waveform capabilities. This device is also capable of quickly recovering from an overvoltage spike and resuming to normal operation.
