Mixed technology TVS is a type of transient voltage suppressor (TVS) which uses both silicon avalanche and zener diodes to protect against destructive over-voltage transients in electronic systems. The ZEN132V260A16CE is a low-voltage bidirectional transient voltage suppressor designed to protect sensitive and low-voltage components from destructive voltage transients. It is specifically designed for a variety of applications that require high-quality, high-performance protection against overvoltage transients.

Applications of ZEN132V260A16CE

The ZEN132V260A16CE Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) is ideal for protecting sensitive electronics from destructive over-voltage transients, such as those caused by electrostatic discharge (ESD), electrical fast transients (EFT), supply transients, and surge events. Common applications for this TVS device include portable electronics, telecom equipment, automotive systems, servers, and consumer electronics.

Working Principle of ZEN132V260A16CE

The ZEN132V260A16CE offers bidirectional protection, preventing damage to connected components from both positive and negative voltage transients. The device utilizes a combination of Silicon Avalanche and Zener diodes to provide protection from transient over-voltages. The Silicon Avalanche Diodes (SAD) are triggered when an electrical transient exceeds the breakdown voltage of the silicon material, and they help to clamp down the voltage. In addition, the device also features a Zener Diode to provide additional protection against electrical transients.

When exposed to an over-voltage transient, the Zener Diode will shut off, allowing the SAD to dissipate the excess energy. This reduces the amount of voltage seen by the protected components, ensuring that the sensitive devices remain safe from over-voltage transients. The device also features a thermal protection circuit, which is triggered when the device reaches a certain temperature. This ensures that the device is not damaged due to excessive heat.

Conclusion

The ZEN132V260A16CE mixed technology Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) is a robust and reliable solution for protecting sensitive electronics from over-voltage transients such as ESD, EFT, supply transients, and surge events. The device utilizes a combination of Silicon Avalanche and Zener diodes to provide comprehensive protection from transient over-voltage events. This makes it an ideal solution for applications such as portable electronics, telecom equipment, automotive systems, servers, and consumer electronics.
