Diodes - Zener - Single, as the name implies, refers to a type of diode used for regulating electrical voltage. 2EZ14D/TR8 is one such diode, typically used for voltage regulation and signal level control applications. This article will discuss the application field and working principle of 2EZ14D/TR8.

2EZ14D/TR8 is a power Zener diode with an average junction temperature of 150°C and a maximum power dissipation rating of 500 mW. Its reverse voltage rating is 6.2V and 6.9V, and its forward voltage at 10 mA is 1.2V. Customized versions are also available with reverse voltage ratings of 8V and 10V.

These diodes are used in a variety of applications, such as voltage step-down circuits, voltage regulators, signal level control, circuit protection, and dissipating power surges. Power Zener diodes can also be used in voltage-limiting operations, such as in audio amplifiers and gauge circuits. They are an ideal component for applications that require non-linear voltage regulation or when a larger voltage drop is needed for superior performance.

The working principle of 2EZ14D/TR8 is based on the Zener breakdown effect, which occurs when the voltage across a reverse-biased PN junction exceeds a certain threshold. In a typical PN junction, the built-in potential of the junction prevents current from flowing when the junction is reverse-biased. However, when the voltage across a PN junction reaches a critical value, known as the Zener voltage, the junction breaks down and allows current to flow.

The Zener voltage of a diode can be determined by its reverse bias polarity, Its thickness and its doping concentration. When a constant DC voltage is applied to a reverse-biased PN junction, the Zener voltage of the PN junction remains constant. This property makes it an ideal component for voltage regulation.

When the 2EZ14D/TR8 diode is connected in reverse-bias across a load, the Zener mechanism is activated and the Zener breakdown effect occurs. As current passes through the 2EZ14D/TR8, it maintains a constant voltage across it, thus acting as a voltage regulator. Depending on the load, the voltage drop across 2EZ14D/TR8 can be adjusted to meet the needs of the load.

In summary, 2EZ14D/TR8 belongs to Diodes - Zener - Single. It is a power Zener diode typically used for voltage regulation and signal level control applications. Its Zener breakdown effect makes it an ideal component for voltage regulation. In addition, it can also be used in voltage-limiting operations and dissipating power surges.
