1SMA4741 M2G

The 1SMA4741 M2G is a single Zener diode, negative temperature coefficient device usually used for voltage regulation, transient suppression, and voltage clamping applications. The single Zener diode—called a "regulator diode"—is used to create a conductive path, which can be used to switch between two circuits. It helps ensure that, regardless of the voltage fluctuations of either circuit, the voltage coming through the diode remains relatively constant. This is especially important in power supply and motor control systems, where sudden voltage drops can cause electronic components to malfunction or fail outright.

The 1SMA4741 M2G handles a wide range of supply volatges, ranging from 5.0 to 250.0 volts, resulting in a voltage regulation range of 5.0 to 250.0 volts. It has a maximum current rating of 8.0 A and a maximum power rating of 40.0 W. It can be used in both commercial and industrial applications. It has a maximum operating temperature of 150° C and a maximum storage temperature of 150° C.

The working principle of the 1SMA4741 M2G is quite simple. When a voltage is applied to it, the diode begins to conduct current in both directions. The voltage applied to it should be greater than the reverse breakdown voltage of the diode. When the applied voltage is greater than the reverse breakdown voltage, a Zener breakdown occurs, causing a voltage across the diode to remain relatively constant. Thus, the device helps to regulate the voltage in a circuit. This is especially useful when dealing with sudden Voltage fluctuations.

In summary, the 1SMA4741 M2G is a single Zener diode used for voltage regulation, transient suppression, and voltage clamping applications. It is able to handle a wide range of supply voltages, ranging from 5.0 to 250.0 volts, and has a maximum current rating of 8.0 A and a maximum power rating of 40.0 W. The working principle of the device is simple: when a voltage is applied to it, the diode begins to conduct current in both directions, and when the applied voltage is greater than the reverse breakdown voltage, a Zener breakdown occurs, causing a voltage across the diode to remain relatively constant. This device can be used in both commercial and industrial applications.
