1N5360AE3/TR12

The 1N5360AE3/TR12 is a single zener diode used in a wide range of applications. It is a three-terminal device that can be used in a number of different applications, such as voltage regulation, switching, protection, and so on. It is an ideal device for low voltage drop and high current applications.

The 1N5360AE3/TR12 is a 500mW, 40V zener diode made with a planar epitaxial structure. It has a breakdown voltage range of 39V to 41V. It has a junction capacitance of 10pF and a forward current rating of 200mA when used at 25°C. Additionally, its maximum reverse current is typically only 20μA at 25°C.

The 1N5360AE3/TR12 is often used in low voltage regulation circuits for various applications. This is due to its low voltage drop and high power capability. It can be used to protect sensitive circuits from excessive voltage or current. The diode can also be used in feedback circuits that control the dynamic response of oscillators, as well as act like a switch in relay circuits.

The working principle of the 1N5360AE3/TR12 is based on the diode’s ability to either conduct or block current. The device has three terminals; an anode, a cathode, and a gate. In forward bias mode, that is, when the anode is positive, the diode will conduct current. In this way, it acts like a switch to allow current to flow through the circuit. On the other hand, in reverse bias mode, when the anode is negative and the gate is shorted to the cathode, the diode will block current. This allows for voltage regulation and current protection.

The 1N5360AE3/TR12 is a great choice for a wide range of applications. It can be used for voltage regulation, switching, protection, and other purposes. The diode is highly reliable and can handle high power, making it an ideal device for high current applications. And, with a junction capacitance of 10pF, the device also operates at relatively high frequencies, making it suitable for high speed applications as well.
