Brief Introduction to 1N972B-T50R

The 1N972B-T50R is a silicon-based Zener diode, designed to protect circuits from overvoltage and emits a discrete light when the voltage across the diode reaches its breakdown voltage. 1N972B-T50R also serve as a vapor-deposited feature to control current in linear power supplies, as current limiter and overvoltage protection for electronic set meters, or as input clamps for microcontroller or logic gates.

Application Field and Working Principle of 1N972B-T50R

1N972B-T50R is suitable for use in applications such as telecommunications and audio, electronic circuitry, high speed computing, electronic data processing and industrial control. This Zener diode is ideal for applications requiring fast clamping for high voltage transients and also has built-in electrostatic discharge protection.

1N972B-T50R is a dual-junction diode that works as a voltage regulator by conducting when forward biased and blocking when reverse biased. It conducts current in either direction when the applied voltage is above the Zener voltage. When reverse voltage reaches Zener voltage value, the diode will activate a breakdown effect and start to conduct current in the reverse direction, protecting the circuit from over-voltages.
