2EZ68D5E3/TR8

The 2EZ68D5E3/TR8 device belongs to the family of diodes, specifically the Zener single range. It has a wide variety of applications and a very simple working principle that is easy to understand.

A Zener diode, like the 2EZ68D5E3/TR8, is designed to allow current to flow in the forward direction like a normal diode, however, it also permits current to flow in the reverse direction when the voltage across it is above a certain value, known as the “Zener voltage”. This feature is utilized in a wide variety of applications. It is also a relatively simple and inexpensive device to use.

The 2EZ68D5E3/TR8 device is specifically designed to handle a peak reverse voltage of 5.6 Volts and a maximum current of 60mA. It has a maximum power dissipation of 350mW and is offered in a surface-mount SOT-23 package. It is ideal for applications where space is at a premium.

The 2EZ68D5E3/TR8 device is primarily used as a regulator in applications such as laptop computers, cell phone chargers, and other consumer electronics. In these applications, the 2EZ68D5E3/TR8 serves to regulate the voltage being fed to the device to ensure that it does not exceed the rated limits of the device. Without this feature, the device would be at risk of being damaged due to excessive voltage.

The 2EZ68D5E3/TR8 can also be used as a “clamp” to protect sensitive electronic devices from voltage spikes. When the voltage exceeds the Zener voltage of the device, it starts to conduct and “clamp” the voltage back to the Zener voltage, thus protecting the device from damage.

The 2EZ68D5E3/TR8 device is also used in electronic circuits as a temperature protection device. In this application, the 2EZ68D5E3/TR8 is used to detect a temperature increase and shut down the circuit before an irreversible damage can occur.

The 2EZ68D5E3/TR8 device is an invaluable tool in the electronics world. Its simple working principle and wide variety of applications make it a very useful and cost effective device.
