5KP20A Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The 5KP20A is a 5kW transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode manufactured by Vishay Dale. It is designed to protect sensitive electronic circuits from voltage transients induced by lightning, inductive load switching, and electrostatic discharge. The device offers a nominal breakdown voltage of 22.2 V (minimum 22.2 V, maximum 24.5 V) and a clamping voltage of 32.4 V at 5 mA.

 

With a peak pulse power rating of 5000 W under a 10/1000 µs waveform, the 5KP20A can handle substantial surge currents up to 157.4 A. Its fast response time of less than 1.0 ps ensures rapid clamping of transients. The diode operates over a junction temperature range of -55°C to 175°C, making it suitable for harsh environments.

 

The device is housed in a P-600 through-hole package, which provides robust mechanical support and efficient heat dissipation. The through-hole mounting style facilitates easy integration into power supply and industrial control boards.
