Diodes - Zener - Single

1N5248B is a single Zenor diode. A Zenor diode is a special type of diode that will conduct current very quickly in both directions. The 1N5248B is designed to handle an average nominal power dissipation of 500 mW. It has a working voltage range of 3.3 to 75 Volts and a reverse (blocking) voltage of 75 Volts.

Application Field

The 1N5248B can be used in a variety of applications, such as power supplies, shunt regulators (zenor voltage regulator), voltage reference and even signal clippers. It is used extensively in power supplies, circuit protection, and signal clipping circuits. The 1N5248B diode is also used in transient suppressor, reverse polarity protection and protection circuit applications. It is also used in inverter circuits as a switchable AC-DC bridge junction. In addition, it can be used in voltage references and voltage clamp applications.

Working Principle

The working principle of the 1N5248B is based on the basic operating principles of a germanium diode. At the gate bias (Vg) of 2.5V, the diode is conducting. This means that current is flowing from the anode to the cathode when the voltage across the diode is greater than 2.5V. The diode becomes “open” when the voltage across it is less than 2.5V and no current can flow. The maximum reverse voltage (Vr) of the 1N5248B is 75V. This means that when the voltage across the diode is more than 75V, the diode will become “open” and will not conduct current.The 1N5248B can also be used as a zener diode. When connected in reverse bias and voltage across it is more than the zener voltage (Vz), the diode will start conducting current, resulting in a steady state voltage across the diode. The voltage across the diode will remain constant as long as the reverse voltage is more than Vz. The 1N5248B also has a high surge current rating and is ideal for use in applications that may require high current surges. It also has a high breakdown voltage and a low leakage current. This makes it suitable for use in high voltage and high current applications.
