2EZ36D10E3/TR8

A 2EZ36D10E3/TR8 is a single Zener diode that is ideal for applications that require a precise, low level regulation of the voltage. This diode is designed with a low voltage drop and low reverse leakage current that makes it suitable for use in regulating and protecting circuits from transients. The diode has a maximum power dissipation of 1.2 W with a forward voltage drop of between 0.5 V and 0.7 V.

The working principle of the 2EZ36D10E3/TR8 Zener diode is based on the voltage regulation it provides. When the diode is reverse biased (i.e. in the reverse direction of conventional current flow) then the reverse current flows more easily and this is mainly due to the predictable breakdown voltage. When a voltage applied to the diode is lower than the Zener breakdown voltage then the diode will act as a normal diode, that is, it will let no current pass. But, if the voltage applied to the diode is higher than the Zener breakdown voltage then the diode will begin to conduct current, and the device becomes a Zener diode. As the applied voltage increases towards the Zener breakdown voltage the reverse leakage current increases very quickly.

The main application areas of the 2EZ36D10E3/TR8 Zener diode can be divided into two categories, on one side we have applications related to voltage regulation and protection, and on the other side we have more specific uses in electrical and electronic equipment. In general, the Zener diode is used for providing precise, low level voltage regulation, and in this situation it is common to use the diode together with other components such as resistors and capacitors to form a voltage regulator circuit. Furthermore, due to its low voltage drop and low reverse leakage current, the diode is also suitable for providing protection against transients. As a result, it is used in circuits that monitor, protect, and control the entire system, such as in UPS systems, telecommunication equipment, and solar controllers.

The 2EZ36D10E3/TR8 Zener diode can also be used in other more specific applications such as, for example, in biomedical applications and in light emitting diode (LED) drivers. In the former case, the diode can be used for providing a regulated voltage supply in a pacemaker circuit and in the latter, it can be used for providing a constant and efficient power supply for LEDs. Of course, the application possibilities and uses of this type of Zener diode are not limited to the ones described and can include numerous other uses.

In conclusion, the 2EZ36D10E3/TR8 Zener Diode is a versatile and easy to use device. Its low voltage drop and low reverse leakage current make it suitable for a wide range of applications, including general voltage regulation and protection, medical device regulation and monitoring, and LED drivers. With its outstanding characteristics, this diode is definitely an invaluable tool for all sorts of electronics.
