1N4751PE3/TR8

The 1N4751PE3/TR8 is a Zener Diode, single type, and is used to provide voltage regulation in a variety of DC-powered applications. It is a low-power, small-package, low-cost device with a wide range of features. These features include a wide operating temperature range, a small package size, a high reverse breakdown voltage rating, and a low forward voltage drop. These features make the 1N4751PE3/TR8 ideal for applications where voltage regulation is critical.

The 1N4751PE3/TR8 consists of a P-type and N-type silicon semiconductor junction. The P-type semiconductor is connected to the anode and the N-type to the cathode. When the cathode is connected to a positive voltage, current will flow through the diode, creating a forward biased junction. Conversely, when the cathode is connected to a negative voltage, reverse current will flow, creating a reverse biased junction. This reverse current is referred to as Zener current and is the basis for the Zener precise regulation mechanism of the 1N4751PE3/TR8.

Zener diode works on the principle of breakdown voltage. When the applied voltage is greater than the breakdown voltage, then a reverse current will flow through the diode, establishing a reverse biased junction which breaks down the depletion layer and Zener current starts to flow. This Zener current will cause the voltage across the diode to remain constant, thus maintaining the circuit regulation. In the 1N4751PE3/TR8, the Zener-protection breakdown voltage is 6.8V.

The 1N4751PE3/TR8 is a short-form package diode and can be used in a variety of DC-powered applications, such as voltage stabilizers, voltage regulators, surge protectors, automotive systems, and telecom systems.
