The 3EZ170D10/TR8 is a Zener diode, typically used to provide a reference voltage, regulating or clamping applications. This article will discuss the application field and the general working principle of the 3EZ170D10/TR8.

Application Field

The 3EZ170D10/TR8 diode is designed for regulating and clamping applications. It ensures stable, reliable voltages and fast switching in a wide range of ambient temperatures. As such, the 3EZ170D10/TR8 can be used in various applications such as voltage protection, line protection, and in the power supply equipment. It is also suitable for voltage regulation and power supply circuits.

The 3EZ170D10/TR8 provides a stable 4.3 VT steady-state reference for a wide range of current levels. It can also be used in a low-noise pulse device, producing a peak current up to 1A. In addition, it provides temperature-stable performance due to its high operating temperature range.

Working Principle

A Zener diode is an electronic component that acts as an ideal voltage regulator. It is based on the principle of a p-n junction diode, with the only difference being that the diode\'s depletion layer is very thin. This means that it allows current to flow through the diode in both the forward and reverse directions.

When a voltage higher than the Zener voltage is applied across the Zener diode, it breaks down and saturates allowing current to flow in the reverse direction. This current is known as the Zener current (IZ). The voltage across the diode is known as the Zener voltage (VZ). The Zener diode will maintain a constant voltage across it even if the input voltage varies. This makes it a perfect voltage regulator.

The 3EZ170D10/TR8 Zener diode has a Zener voltage of 10.5 V and a Zener current of 170 mA. This means that the voltage across the diode will be 10.5 V and the maximum current it can handle is 170 mA.

In addition, the 3EZ170D10/TR8 configuration has a high surge capability. This means that the diode can withstand a voltage up to 5.0 V when the reverse voltage is applied. This makes it ideal for applications such as overvoltage protection.

In conclusion, the 3EZ170D10/TR8 Zener diode is a versatile electronic component that can be used in a variety of regulating and clamping applications. Its Zener voltage is 10.5 V and its Zener current is 170 mA, making it suitable for low-noise pulse devices and for voltage regulation and protection circuits. It has a high surge capability and can withstand voltages up to 5.0 V in reverse direction.
