BZB984-C10,115 Discrete Semiconductor Products

Diodes - Zener - Arrays

The BZB984-C10,115 is a 4-line zener array (also known as zener diode array) manufactured by Eversun Group. It can be used in various applications such as voltage regulation, switching, and transient suppression.

A zener diode array is a type of diode with a fixed reverse breakdown voltage. When a positive voltage is applied to the anode, the diode will conduct in a forward direction until the threshold point is reached; once the reverse breakdown voltage is exceeded, the diode breaks down and conducts in a reverse direction. This phenomenon is known as zener breakdown. When the input voltage exceeds the breakdown voltage, the diode will clamp the voltage at a constant level, thus regulating the output voltage.

The BZB984-C10,115 has four individual diodes connected in series and placed in a single package. The four diodes each have different breakdown voltage values, allowing them to provide multiple regulated voltage levels. The breakdown voltages are as follows: 5.6V, 6.2V, 8.2V and 9.1V. The diodes also have a low maximum current rating of 1.1A and minimum dynamic resistance of 3Ω, making it suitable for general purpose low current applications.

The main application for a zener diode array is voltage regulation. It is typically used in power supplies to provide a constant output voltage despite variations in input voltage. The BZB984-C10,115 can also be used in integrated circuits as an ESD protection circuit, transient suppression diode, and logic level shifter. Some other applications include current limiting, temperature compensation and noise reduction.

In conclusion, the BZB984-C10,115 is a 4-line zener array manufactured by Eversun Group. It is used in various application such as voltage regulation, switching, and transient suppression. It has four individual diodes of different breakdown voltage values, allowing it to provide multiple regulated voltage levels. This diode is suitable for general purpose low current applications such as ESD protection circuit, transient suppression diode, current limiting, and logic level shifter.
