BZG03C11-HM3-08

The BZG03C11-HM3-08 diode is a single Zener diode. It is most often used to provide a relatively constant voltage in a circuit, and to protect the circuit from short circuit conditions and voltage spikes. This diode is a surface mount form, making it ideal for circuit boards with limited space.

The BZG03C11-HM3-08 is a low-power, low-cost Zener diode that has a standard voltage range of 2.5 to 7.5 volts. It is designed with a power dissipation rating of 500 milliwatts, and has a maximum reverse voltage rating of 8 volts. The diode also has a maximum operating temperature of 150 degrees Celsius.

The working principle of the BZG03C11-HM3-08 is that when the voltage across the diode is below the Zener voltage of the diode, the diode is acting as an open circuit (sometimes called a reverse diode). However, when the voltage across the diode reaches above the Zener voltage of the diode, it begins to conduct current in the reverse direction and clamps the voltage at the Zener voltage. This prevents the voltage from reaching a dangerous level.

The most common applications for the BZG03C11-HM3-08 diode include power regulation, voltage clamping, overvoltage protection, and transient protection. It is also often used as a voltage reference or in general circuit protection applications. The diode is designed to be used in low-voltage, low-power applications on analog and digital circuits.

The BZG03C11-HM3-08 diode is an important part of many circuits, providing an important voltage regulating and protection service. Its low price and small size make it ideal for use in applications where space is limited and the budget is tight. The diode is reliable and durable, making it an effective and reliable choice for a variety of circuit protection applications.
