Diodes - Zener - Single: 3EZ4.3D5E3/TR8 Application Field and Working Principle

Zener diode is a type of diode which is connected in the reversed bias condition (i.e., the anode has a lower potential than the cathode). Under this condition, the device allows small continuous current in the forward bias direction, yet operated under the circuit parameters it can be used for voltage regulation in order to maintain a stable output voltage. The Zener diode type 3EZ4.3D5E3/TR8 is an ideal component for many specific applications, featuring superior characteristics such as power and high performance with break-down voltage of 4.3V.

Zener diode is also referred to as avalanche diode, mainly due to its avalanche effect, which triggers a zener breakdown when working in the reverse bias condition. When a reverse voltage is added to the device, it creates a built-in electric field, and the depletion region is widened as the field increases. As soon as the field becomes higher than the avalanche breakdown voltage, the electrons become accelerated and increase their own field. When this avalanche field exceeds the attaching strength of the PN junction, the diode triggers a zener breakdown, allowing electrons to pass through.

The 3EZ4.3D5E3/TR8 device is made of a Silicon semiconductor materials in order to ensure a stable working, preventing issues with leakage currents with high stability and reliability. Since Zener diodes are made to work with a specific voltage and power, the 3EZ4.3D5E3/TR8 is designed with specifications at 125V up to 5 watts, able to operate at temperatures from -55°C to + 170°C depending on the application.
