A diode is an essential component in a wide variety of applications. It is used to rectify waves, prevent current reversal and regulate voltages. The BZG04-10-M3-08 is one such diode specifically designed for regulated voltage applications. It belongs to the single Zener diodes family due to its features and characteristics.

Features:

• Zener BZG04-10-M3-08 is a silicon based diode rated for Peak Repetitive Reverse Voltage (PRV) of 10V, Peak Forward Voltage of 1.2V, and Zener Voltage ranging from 4.6V to 7.2V.
• It offers high power handling capabilities with a maximum power rating of 7.25 watts.
• It has a small form factor and is available as Surface mount (SMD) type diode with a 3mm x 3mm package size.

Working Principle:

A Zener diode is an important type of diode that is designed to take advantage of a certain type of electrical property to produce a stable voltage output across a wide range of current inputs. The BZG04-10-M3-08 works on the principle of breakdown voltage; this is the voltage at which the diode breaks down (or fails) and causes current to flow in the opposite direction to its normal operation.

The Zener BZG04-10-M3-08 regulates voltage using the Zener Voltage and Zener Impedance; the Zener Voltage is the voltage at which the diode begins to breakdown, and the Zener Impedance is the measure of the ability of the diode to regulate the output voltage when current is applied. Higher Zener Impedance ensures better voltage regulation.

The diode has a standard forward voltage drop of 1.2V and slowly increases when the current is increased. The reverse voltage of the diode starts increasing exponentially until the Zener Voltage is reached. At the Zener voltage, the diode acts like a short-circuit. This action creates a regulated supply voltage that is ideal for circuits which require a stable operating voltage.

Applications:

The diode is suitable for use in a wide range of applications. It is often used as a voltage regulator in electronic circuits cases where a steady and constant supply voltage is required. It is very effective in amplifiers that need the voltage rail to be highly stable.The diode can also be used in power supplies. It can be used to limit the output voltage of a power supply. It is also used in low power circuits such as logic gates, displays and regulators where the output voltage needs to remain constant.The diode is also used in radio antenna circuits and rectifying circuits. It is also used in oscillating circuits, as a voltage divider and in voltage-controlled oscillator circuits.
