TPC18AHM3/86A Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The Vishay Dale TPC18AHM3/86A is a surface mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode. It is designed for unidirectional protection against voltage transients, making it suitable for sensitive electronics.

 

Key electrical specifications include a nominal working voltage of 15.3V and a breakdown voltage of 17.1V. The device offers excellent clamping capabilities with a maximum clamping voltage of 25.2V at 100A. It can handle a peak pulse power of 1500W (1.5kW) for a 10/1000 μs waveform and a peak forward surge current of 200A for an 8.3 ms single half sine-wave.

 

This TVS diode operates within a wide temperature range of -65°C to 185°C. It is housed in a TO-277A (SMPC) package, ideal for automated placement on PCBs. The AEC-Q101 qualification indicates suitability for automotive requirements. The component is also halogen-free and RoHS compliant.

 

Typical applications include protecting ICs, MOSFETs, and signal lines in consumer, computer, industrial, automotive, and telecommunication systems from voltage transients induced by inductive load switching and lighting.
