1N5751B

The 1N5751B Zener diode is a low-power version of the 1N5752B. It supplies voltage regulation, peak clamping, and other applications. Zener diodes are two-terminal devices that are designed to operate in the reverse breakdown region. When a reverse voltage is applied, it will break down and regulate at a specific voltage, thus providing voltage regulation.

The 1N5751B datasheet offers a variety of features and specifications, including a nominal zener voltage of 20 V, an operating temperature range from -55 ˚C to +150 ˚C, and an operating power up to 0.5 W. The 1N5751B is available in both axial and surface mount packages. The average dynamic resistance (ratings) is 1.5, and the forward voltage is 900mV at 2 A.

When the reverse voltage applied to the 1N5751B exceeds the zener voltage, the diode will break-down, regulating the voltage to the zener voltage. As this voltage is constant, the zener diode can be used in a variety of applications, including voltage regulation, peak clamping, and lightning protection. As the zener breakdown voltage is temperature-dependent, the 1N5751B is commonly used in temperature compensation circuits, as temperature variations can be easily compensated for.

Furthermore, the 1N5751B can be used in applications requiring an adjustable reference voltage such as switching regulators, clamping/clipping circuits, waveform shaping, and in current limiting circuits. They are also used in waveform synchronization and sampling. In short, the 1N5751B Zener diode has many applications that make it a popular choice in a variety of electronics applications.

In summary, the 1N5751B Zener diode is a two-terminal device designed to provide voltage regulation, peak clamping and lightning protection in a variety of electronics applications. It is available in both axial and surface-mount packages, with a nominal breakdown voltage of 20 volts and a dynamic resistance of 1.5. The zener voltage is temperature-dependent, so the 1N5751B is well-suited for temperature compensation circuits.
