The 1N5240B is a single Zener diode, manufactured by several companies. It is the lowest power 1N5240B available in the market, which makes it an ideal choice for applications that require low voltage protection, such as power supply design. With a breakdown voltage of 5.1V, this diode is also suited for voltage regulation, over voltage and over current protection, in addition to many other applications.

The 1N5240B is a military grade device, characterized by its low power dissipation, high level of reliability, and tight voltage tolerance. The 1N5240B has an operating temperature range of -55˚C to +125˚C, and is offered in a DO-35 package style, for easy surface mounting. In terms of electrical characteristics, the 1N5240B has a forward voltage drop of 1V and a maximum reverse voltage of 5.1V. The 1N5240B also features a reverse current of typically 10uA.

The 1N5240B is designed to be used as a voltage reference in power supplies, as it offers excellent line regulation at low current. This enables the device to provide a stable reference voltage, which helps to maintain voltage regulation in power supplies. The device is also suited to be used in protection circuits, as it can help to protect other components in a circuit from overvoltage and overcurrent conditions. It is also useful in temperature sensing applications, as its voltage shifts with temperature.

The working principle of the 1N5240B is quite simple. The circuit uses a zener diode to act as a voltage reference, which helps to keep the voltage across the diode constant, irrespective of the current flowing through it. The diode is reverse biased and a voltage regulator is connected to the diode in order to control the level of current that is passing through the diode. This regulator ensures that the voltage across the diode stays constant, even when the current through it changes.

The 1N5240B is widely used in many different types of applications, such as automotive, industrial, computer, and telecommunications. It offers a low power solution for voltage regulation, overvoltage and overcurrent protection, as well as other protection applications. The device is an ideal choice for applications that require low voltage protection, and also helps to ensure reliability and tight voltage tolerance.
