A 1N5369C/TR8 Zener diode is an electronically regulated dopant in a standard two-terminal semiconductor device. It contains two junctions placed in series, the backend junction of which exhibits reverse breakdown properties. This type of diode has two kinds of operation: the normal forward bias operation which happens when the anode voltage is greater than the cathode voltage, and the reverse bias operation which takes place when the diode is in reverse breakdown mode, allowing small forward currents. This Zener diode is specially designed to provide a constant steady-state voltage over a broad range of currents.

The application field of a 1N5369C/TR8 Zener diode is mainly in the field of voltage regulation, by taking advantage of its reverse breakdown properties. By setting the reverse voltage to this component below the zener voltage, all the currents will remain below the knee current, effectively regulating the output voltage. This diode can also be used as a voltage reference device in devices like analog-to-digital converters and voltage regulators.

The working principle of a 1N5369C/TR8 Zener diode is pretty straightforward, despite its complicated internal structure. As stated previously, the 1N5369C/TR8 contains junctions that can withstand a large reverse voltage. When the diode is in reverse bias mode, the junction becomes conductive, allowing a small current to flow. This current then produces more electron-hole pairs, which are attracted to the cathode and anode respectively, creating a negative feedback system that limits the current and keeps the output voltage at a steady level.

The 1N5369C/TR8 Zener diode can be used in various applications such as protection circuits, voltage regulation and for shunting. Due to its steady-state voltage and wide range of current, this component can be easily relied upon for consistent performance in any given circuit.
