2EZ9.1D5/TR12

Diodes - Zener - Single

The 2EZ9.1D5/TR12 is a single zener diode. It is used in applications where a voltage regulator is needed. It is designed to regulate voltage by maintaining a constant voltage across its terminals. The diode is also capable of dissipating power at high voltages and currents. The 2EZ9.1D5/TR12 is a compact, robust component that is designed for long life and high-reliability applications.

The diode is designed to be a low-noise, fast-recovery device that can operate in the presence of electrical noise and high-frequency voltage fluctuations. The diode contains two active zones: an anode and a cathode. The anode is typically connected to a positive voltage source, while the cathode is connected to a negative voltage source or ground. The diode is encased in a protective plastic shell to provide insulation from environmental conditions.

The working principle of the 2EZ9.1D5/TR12 is to allow positive current flow in one direction and block current flow in the opposite direction. When a voltage is applied to the anode, it will cause a current to flow through the diode. This current will flow until the voltage at the anode exceeds the breakdown voltage of the device. At this point, the diode will "break down" and allow the current to flow in both directions. This is known as the Zener Effect.

Once the breakdown voltage is reached, the diode can regulate voltage by allowing current to flow in both directions, thus maintaining a constant voltage across its terminals. The breakdown voltage is set during the manufacture of the device and can be adjusted by altering the doping levels of the various elements within the diode.

The 2EZ9.1D5/TR12 is used in a variety of applications, including power supplies, motor control, high-voltage rectification, DC/DC converters, and other voltage regulation applications. The diode is also used in industrial, automotive, and consumer electronics due to its high reliability and rugged construction. The diode is available in a variety of packages, including through-hole and surface mount.

In conclusion, the 2EZ9.1D5/TR12 is a single zener diode that is commonly used in a variety of voltage regulation applications. The diode works by allowing a current flow in one direction and blocking current flow in the opposite direction. It also regulates voltage by allowing current to flow in both directions and maintaining a constant voltage across its terminals. The diode is available in a variety of packages and has a long life and high-reliability, making it perfect for industrial, automotive, and consumer electronic applications.
