Category: Semiconductor
Use: Voltage suppressor diode
Characteristics: High surge capability, low clamping voltage, fast response time
Package: DO-201AD
Essence: Provides protection against transient voltage spikes
Packaging/Quantity: Available in tape and reel packaging, quantity varies
The MA15KP90A is a unidirectional voltage suppressor diode with two leads. The anode is connected to the positive side of the circuit, while the cathode is connected to the negative side.
Advantages: - Effective protection against voltage spikes - Fast response time - High surge capability
Disadvantages: - Clamping voltage may be higher than some alternative models - Limited breakdown voltage compared to higher-rated diodes
The MA15KP90A operates by diverting excessive current away from sensitive components in the circuit when a transient voltage spike occurs. It achieves this by rapidly conducting when the voltage exceeds its breakdown voltage, thereby protecting downstream components.
The MA15KP90A is commonly used in electronic circuits to protect sensitive components such as integrated circuits, transistors, and other semiconductor devices from voltage surges caused by lightning, ESD, or other transient events. It finds applications in power supplies, telecommunications equipment, industrial controls, and automotive electronics.
