Working Principle

The BZG05C15-E3-TR3’s working principle is straightforward. Its internal architecture consists of a simple PN junction diode connected in series with a low resistance element. This is known as a Zener diode, as could be inferred from its name. In a circuit connected to the BZG05C15-E3-TR3, when a forward voltage is applied, the junction acts as just a typical diode and current flows easily through it. However, when a reverse voltage is applied and exceeds the Zener voltage rating of 5.15V, the Zener junction breakdown occurs, and the current flows through the Zener diode and the external circuit in reverse. In this way, the voltage level is stabilized in the circuit, and destructive voltage surges can be effectively contained.
