3EZ180D5/TR8--Application Field and Working Principle

Diodes - Zener - Single include 3EZ180D5/TR8, which is designed to provide high voltage accuracy and power avalanche capability in a single package. It has an application field in several areas like voltage regulation, voltage stabilization, voltage multipliers, active clamping, clipper circuits and surge protectors, whereas it can be also used for integrated circuits (ICs).

The main operation principle of the 3EZ180D5/TR8 is based on the particular bi-stable characteristic of the Zeners diode. It is a regular diode whose reverse breakdown voltage is latterly determined by the applied current and temperature. When the applied voltage is greater than a predetermined amount the reverse breakdown voltage, it will pass the current. When the applied voltage exceeds the threshold, the diode operates normally, making the 3EZ180D5/TR8 suitable as a voltage regulator.

Any Zener diode’s purpose is to provide a stable output voltage regardless of the input voltage changes. Outputs, which are predetermined and based on the Zener diode in use, are designed and created with the use of a governor circuit, which manages the power going towards the load. It applies the voltage to the load, by using a series resistor to limit the current passing through the circuit and the Zener diode. The ratio of resistor values determines the voltage supplied to the load. The predominant applications for a Zener diode are within cells that are powered by batteries, and are commonly utilized in LED circuits, sensitive electronics, and audio amplifiers where there is need to regulate a specific voltage, by providing voltage stabilization.

Moreover, the 3EZ180D5/TR8 can be used in cascading circuits, since its reverse leakage current is quite low. When the applied voltage exceeds the limit, the 3EZ180D5/TR8 forward breaks down with a significant amount of energy and finally reduces the input current. Furthermore, it can be used for protecting the devices from overvoltage or a reverse voltage. Neither of these situations is desirable, and the 3EZ180D5/TR8 provides a way of protecting equipment from damage.

The avalanche energy and power capability of the 3EZ180D5/TR8 make it suitable for operations with high power surges, making it a good option for protecting sensitive equipment or controlling the current or voltage in high power devices. The 3EZ180D5/TR8 can also be used to limit the voltage and voltage spikes, which can occur due to changes in load, thus providing the possibility of using it in high frequency switching circuits with increased safety levels.

Finally, the 3EZ180D5/TR8 can also be used in assembling circuits and testing pre-defined voltage values, recreating power discharges, as well as is good for size reduction. It is also cost-effective and can be used in a multitude of electronic systems.
