ACZRW5239B-G

Diodes - Zener - Single

The ACZRW5239B-G is an Epitaxial Silicon Zener diode with a nominal breakdown voltage of 5.6 volts. The ACZRW5239B-G is a single diode and is used to regulate the voltage across a section of a circuit by clamping the voltage at a predetermined level. The ACZRW5239B-G is housed in a DO-15 package, which is the same as most other Zener diodes.

Application Fields

The ACZRW5239B-G is mainly used in power management circuits to regulate the voltage in order to prevent damage to the circuit caused by fluctuations in the input voltage. This can be invaluable in circuits where a steady voltage is required to operate correctly and efficiently. The ACZRW5239B-G is also used in voltage regulation and voltage protection circuits, where it is employed to protect sensitive components from overvoltage transients.

The ACZRW5239B-G is also suitable for use as a temperature-compensated temperature switch in temperature control circuits. The ACZRW5239B-G is a cost effective solution for the regulation of voltages in low-current, low-power applications.

Working Principle

The ACZRW5239B-G operates according to the same mechanism as most other Zener diodes. A Zener diode is a two terminal semiconductor device that uses an internal avalanche breakdown to regulate the voltage across a section of a circuit, clamping the voltage at a predetermined level. The ACZRW5239B-G has a breakdown voltage of 5.6 volts, meaning that the voltage across the diode will never exceed 5.6 volts. This prevents overvoltage transients in the circuit, thus protecting all the components in the circuit.

The ACZRW5239B-G has a very low forward voltage drop, so it has very little effect on the current flowing through the circuit. This makes it an ideal choice for low-current, low-power applications. Furthermore, the ACZRW5239B-G has an integrated temperature-compensated mechanism, which ensures the breakdown voltage is consistently maintained over the full operating temperature range.

In conclusion, the ACZRW5239B-G is a cost effective solution for voltage regulation and voltage protection in low-power, low-current applications. Its low forward voltage drop and its integrated temperature-compensated mechanism make it an ideal choice for temperature control circuits.
