Diodes are a critical component to any electrical system, and the Zener Single Diode is one of the most common and vastly utilized variation. 3EZ16DE3/TR8 is an ideal example of a robust and reliable Zener diode, and it is a part of a larger family of Zener diodes and can be used for a broad range of electrical applications.

3EZ16DE3/TR8 Overview

The 3EZ16DE3/TR8 Zener diode is made from a high-purity silicon substrate and is specifically designed for high-reliability applications. It is bi-functional with a maximum forward voltage rating of only 1.2 volts. It\'s maximum reverse voltage rating is 16 volts, with a nominal operating temperature range of -55 - 125 degrees Celsius. The reverse breakdown voltage is between 5.1 - 6.25 volts and it is capable of handling a maximum of 1 Watt of power.

Application Fields

The versatility of the 3EZ16DE3/TR8 diode allows it to be used in a wide array of applications including the auto industry, computer and telecoms, industrial, LCD and LED lighting and commercial lighting. It is frequently used as a voltage regulator protecting over-voltages and providing for precise controlling elements for many small circuits. These types of diodes are also used to prevent current surges and maintain stable voltage in a variety of even small electrical components and industrial machinery.

Working Principle

The working principle of the 3EZ16DE3/TR8 Zener diode is based on the fact that when the diode is combined with other electronic components, an electric field is created that forces the diode to limit the amount of current passing through. This electric field is usually created by connecting a resistor of the same type in series between the diode and the power source. When the voltage to the diode exceeds the reverse breakdown voltage rating of the diode it enters a “Zener effect” mode, and begins to dissipate the current to maintain the same voltage. This helps protect the circuit from power surges that can cause electrical damage.

Conclusion

The 3EZ16DE3/TR8 Zener diode is an essential element in many circuits, and it provides a necessary level of protection by managing the current and preventing any unwanted surges. This diode can be used in a wide range of applications including the auto industry, computer and telecoms, industrial, LED lighting and commercial lighting. The working principle is based on the Zener effect, which is the ability of the diode to remain in a state with a constant voltage, even if a sharp increase in power is observed. The 3EZ16DE3/TR8 is a reliable and durable part, and it can give you the protection you need for your circuits.
