1PMT4118C/TR13

​A diode is a type of semiconductor device commonly used in electronic circuits. A Zener diode is a specialized type of diode specifically designed for use as a voltage regulator. The 1PMT4118C/TR13 is an example of a single Zener diode.

Application Field of 1PMT4118C/TR13

The 1PMT4118C/TR13 is a 4.1V Zener diode with a maximum power dissipation of 500mW. As a Zener diode, it is typically used in circuits to supply a constant, regulated voltage. The device has a peak reverse voltage of 5V and a reverse current of 5mA. The 1PMT4118C/TR13 can be used as a voltage regulator, a transient or surge protector, or an input protection diode.

Working Principle of 1PMT4118C/TR13

Like other diodes, the 1PMT4118C/TR13 works by allowing electricity to flow through it in only one direction. When electricity enters the device from the anode, a current is established and the device begins to conduct. When the current rises to a predetermined level, the diode goes into a reverse conduction mode and begins to limit the voltage.

The 1PMT4118C/TR13 is designed to conduct when exposed to voltages between 4.1V and 5V on the anode side. When the reverse voltage or current exceeds the Zener breakdown voltage or current the diode begins to conduct and the device operates in a reverse-biased mode. This allows the device to act as a voltage regulator by limiting the amount of current that can flow through it.

The 1PMT4118C/TR13 can also help protect electrical circuits from voltage surges and transients. The device will activate, limiting the amount of current that can flow through it, and protecting the components downstream from any damage.

Conclusion

The 1PMT4118C/TR13 is a high-quality Zener diode designed for use in * circuits. It is designed to limit the amount of current that can flow through it and act as a voltage regulator. It can also help protect electrical circuits from voltage surges and transients. With its high reverse-biased breakdown voltage and low power dissipation, the 1PMT4118C/TR13 is an ideal component for use in many applications.
