2EZ36D2E3/TR8 application field and working principle

Diodes Zener Single family 2EZ36D2E3/TR8 are usually used in wide range of fields that require medium power voltage regulation or switching.Knowing the working principle and application field of 2EZ36D2E3/TR8 is of vital importance for its correct use.

Basic principle

2EZ36D2E3/TR8 comprise a semiconductor p-n junction and have a reverse voltage blocking capability. This means that in the forward-biased region, the diodes will permit current to flow from the anode to the cathode. However, when the voltage reaches the reverse bias region, the diode will block the current and the junction barrier potential will be utilized to limit the reverse voltage. The value of this reverse breakdown voltage is known as the “Zener voltage” and is adjustable by changing the doping concentration in the diode structure. These diodes are also widely used to provide active current-limiting characteristics and they can be used in voltage control applications.
