Introduction

PMT5917A/TR13 is a diode type field of Zener Single, It is a voltage-regulating diode produced by Philips Semiconductors. This type of Zener single diode holds an active area smaller than normal PN junction but with a tolerance of ± 5%.

Application Field

PMT5917A/TR13 is a voltage regulating diode for which the principal application field is the protection of circuits from overvoltage or breakdown. It can take the place of a voltage regulator or it can be used as a circuit protector. It can be used to protect components and integrated circuits from overvoltage.

Working Principle

PMT5917A/TR13 holds a relatively low Zener voltage of 9.0V and dissipates a maximum rate of 1.74 W in the stand-by mode. It can regulate overvoltage or breakdowns. When the anode reaches the breakdown voltage, the diode begins to conduct and it will attempt to set the anodal voltage at the breakdown value. As the reverse current rises, the forward voltage of the diode decreases.

The PMT5917A/TR13 works by applying different levels of voltage at both the anode and the cathode. When the anodic voltage reaches the breakdown value, the diode conducts and starts attempting to create a regulated voltage at the anode. When the reverse voltage runs out, the forward voltage of the diode decreases and the diode begins to stop conducting.

This diode works even under low forward current levels which allows for low power consumption. It can be used in applications with high currents and high voltages since it boasts an increased power rating.

Conclusion

The PMT5917A/TR13 is a voltage-regulating diode produced by Philips Semiconductors. It is of the Zener single diode type and holds a low Zener voltage at 9.0V. It can regulate overvoltage or breakdowns, protecting components and integrated circuits from overvoltage. It also works with low forward current levels, which allows for low power consumption as well as high current and voltage applications.
