BZG05C75-E3-TR

BZG05C75-E3-TR is a single Zener diode. It is constructed of an in-line glass package and a tin-plated axial lead. It has a Zener voltage of 5.75V and a Zener test current of 250mA. The diode features hermetic sealing, low forward voltage drop, low leakage current, low capacitance and minimal reverse recovery time.

The BZG05C75-E3-TR is used in many applications, including voltage regulation, voltage stabilization, reverse voltage protection, over voltage protection, ESD protection and surge protection. It is suitable for use in devices such as portable equipment, telecom equipment, automotive applications, medical applications, power supplies, lighting, current sensing and temperature measurement.

The working principle of a Zener diode is based on the behavior of a reverse-biased voltage. When an external voltage is applied that exceeds the diode’s breakdown voltage, the diode’s internal resistance drops sharply which causes a current to flow from the external voltage source through the diode. This current is limited by the diode’s resistance which is known as the Zener impedance.

In a Zener diode, this Zener impedance is used to control the flow of current and the resulting voltage drop across the diode, allowing the diode to maintain a constant voltage drop across the diode, regardless of the input voltage. The result is a voltage regulator that contains a feedback loop, where a constant voltage is maintained across the output terminals, regardless of changes in the input voltage.

The Zener impedance also limits the current that can flow through the diode, ensuring that the current is not high enough to damage the diode or its surroundings. As the input voltage reaches and exceeds the diode’s breakdown voltage, the diode’s Zener resistance begins to increase and the current begins to decrease until the diode no longer passes current.

The BZG05C75-E3-TR is a popular choice for many applications due to its hermetic sealing, low forward voltage drop, low leakage current, low capacitance and minimal reverse recovery time. It is also suitable for use temperatures ranging from -65°C to +150°C.

Its superior features make it an ideal choice for use in a wide variety of applications including voltage regulation, voltage stabilization, reverse voltage protection, over voltage protection, ESD protection and surge protection. It is suitable for use in devices such as portable equipment, telecom equipment, automotive applications, medical applications, power supplies, lighting, current sensing and temperature measurement.
