This document describes a medium current low voltage rectifier with reverse avalanche characteristics, designed for use as a reverse power transient suppressor. Developed for transient suppression in automotive systems, these devices can operate in the forward mode as standard rectifiers or in the reverse mode as power avalanche rectifiers, providing protection for electronic equipment against overvoltage conditions.
The MR2535L is a medium current overvoltage transient suppressor designed for applications requiring a low voltage rectifier with reverse avalanche characteristics. Developed to suppress transients in the automotive system, these devices operate in the forward mode as standard rectifiers or in reverse mode as power avalanche rectifiers to protect electronic equipment from overvoltage conditions. The device features an avalanche voltage range of 24 to 32 volts and is housed in an epoxy molded case.
