Working Principle

The 1N5229B-T works by providing a constant current flow between its anode and cathode terminals when the voltage reaches its breakdown voltage. When the voltage is below its breakdown voltage, the diode acts as an open switch and does not allow any current to pass through.

When the voltage rises above its breakdown voltage, the diode begins to conduct. The forward voltage drop of the diode is determined by the amount of current it is passing through. As the current increases, the voltage drop across the diode decreases until it reaches its minimum with the device being in a highly saturated state.

In normal operation, the diode is employed in reverse bias and the amount of current flowing is proportional to the amount of reverse bias applied across the device.
