Diodes - Zener - Arrays

The AZ23C16-E3-18 is an array of Zener diodes which uses silicon technology and subminiature disc packaging. It has a low profile, high stability, and a wide range of operating voltage. The AZ23C16-E3-18 is an ideal choice for applications such as voltage regulation, stabilizing voltage in electrical circuits, and voltage control in AC/DC converters.

Application Fields

Typically, Zener diodes are used to protect electronic devices from voltage spikes as they provide protection against overvoltage. This array of Zener diodes provides reverse-breakdown protection in many applications. These include:

• Power supply, voltage regulator
• Data and signal protection
• Lighting, audio and video systems
• Telecommunication and computing equipment

Working Principle

The device consists of a series of Zener diodes connected in parallel with each other. For the AZ23C16-E3-18, there are 16 individual diodes, each with an operating voltage of 18V. When operating, the Zener diodes regulate the voltage and prevent it from exceeding the rated operating voltage. When the voltage across the Zener diode exceeds the rated voltage, the diode begins to conduct and the resulting current clamps the voltage to the predefined value.

The AZ23C16-E3-18 has a very fast reaction time and a low thermal resistance, and it is designed to provide reliable overvoltage protection. The device is available in various packages such as through-hole, SMT, or single inline packages depending on the customer\'s application requirements.

Conclusion

The AZ23C16-E3-18 is a reliable and efficient array of Zener diodes that can be used to protect electronic devices from voltage spikes and supply voltage stability. The array provides protection against overvoltage and is widely used in many applications such as voltage regulation, power supply, data and signal protection, and computing equipment.
