The BZB984-C3V6,115 is a diode array zener product. This type of diode array zener helps to protect the circuit by absorbing and dissipating overvoltage pulses and transients. It also helps to provide a wider range of overvoltage protection.

A diode array zener basically consists of an array of two diode couples connected in series. The first diode in the array is connected in parallel with a resistance and a zener diode. The second diode is connected in series with a capacitance. This array arrangement provides for better signal fidelity, input common mode range and low power dissipation.

The BZB984-C3V6 115 has the following features: Operating Current at 40°C ambient temperature – 175 mA; zener voltage range – 4.7V ~ 6.2V; surge current – 2.6A peak; and reverse current – 5mA.

The main application of the diode array zener is to protect electronic circuits against transients and electrical overvoltage. It serves as a protection device to keep the voltage within a certain threshold defined by the zener voltage range. The diode array zener can also be used in thermal compensation circuits, as well as for clamping signals and pulses.

The working principle of the BZB984-C3V6,115 diode array zener is quite simple. When a reverse voltage is applied to the zener diode, the resistance connected in parallel with it will conduct the forward current and this will cause a drop in its voltage. This drop in voltage will establish the minimum zener voltage, which is necessary to keep the current constant.

When an overvoltage is applied to the diode array zener, the zener diode will start to conduct, while the second diode in the array will start to become reverse-biased. At this point, the capacitance connected in series with the second diode will start to dissipate the excess energy, preventing it from damaging the circuit.

Thus, the BZB984-C3V6,115 is an important device for protecting electronic circuits from damage due to electrical overvoltage. It can be used in a variety of applications such as thermal compensation circuits, and clamping of signals and pulses. It provides a wide range of overvoltage protection making it an ideal choice for a number of applications.
