Diodes - Zener - Single

The 1N5355BRLG is a free standing, single Zener diode, specifically tailored for electronic devices. This diode is designed for use in voltage regulation and rectification, meaning it is used to control the flow of electricity in one direction, which is useful in a variety of electronic components from transformers to amplifiers.

The 1N5355BRLG is a small, cylindrical diode, usually measuring only three to four millimeters (mm) in length. It’s available in both thru-hole and surface mount varieties, with different maximum ratings depending on the usage. Thru-hole versions have a maximum voltage of 40 volts, while surface mount versions have a maximum voltage of 75 volts.

The working principle of the 1N5355BRLG is relatively simple and is based on the rectifying capabilities of the diode. To put it simply, the diode has two important characteristics; one is that it conducts current in one direction only (while blocking current from flowing in the opposite direction), and two is that it also maintains a constant voltage across its terminals. These two characteristics combined allows the diode to act as a voltage regulator, meaning that it’s able to pass a current at a relatively constant voltage.

The most common application of the 1N5355BRLG is in voltage regulation circuits. Voltage regulation is essential for many electronic devices where a fixed voltage is needed to maintain a stable function, such as computers and power supplies. By incorporating a Zener diode into the circuit, the voltage across the terminals can be kept within a certain range and any sudden spikes or drops in voltage can easily be absorbed.

The 1N5355BRLG is also commonly used in bridge rectifier circuits, where it is typically used to control the flow of current through the circuit. By using one or more of these diodes in the bridge circuit, current is only allowed to pass in one direction and the device ensures the return current stays within a certain range, preventing over voltage or under voltage problems.

With its compact size and wide range of available specifications, the 1N5355BRLG is an ideal solution for many electronic applications. It’s popular in automotive, industrial, and medical applications, where it’s used as a voltage regulator or bridge rectifier. It’s also increasingly being used in home applications, such as for charging phones and tablets.
