BZT52C3V0LP-7

Diodes are components on many types of circuit boards, serving a variety of functions. One of the types of diodes is the Zener diode, which serves as a voltage regulator and protects circuits from damage by electrical disturbances. The BZT52C3V0LP-7 is a single Zener diode most commonly used in electrical engineering applications.

This diode features a 0.5 Watt maximum power rating and a voltage rating of 3.3 Volts. It also has a maximum reverse voltage of 5.6 Volts, a minimum breakdown voltage (Vz) of 3.3 Volts, and a capacitance of 15pF. The maximum operating temperature is -55°C to +150°C.

The BZT52C3V0LP-7 has a wide range of applications, including both consumer and industrial applications. On consumer circuits, this diode is used to protect delicate integrated circuits from voltage spikes, ESD, and other forms of interference. It is also used on power supplies, high voltage rectifiers, and surge protectors. In industrial applications, this diode is used in adjustable and fixed voltage regulators, LED voltage stabilizers, electromechanical control systems, and high voltage applications.

The working principle of the BZT52C3V0LP-7 is quite simple. When the diode is exposed to a voltage greater than its Vz value, it will start to conduct, allowing current to pass through it. This serves to protect the circuit from damage due to overvoltage. At the same time, the diode will also act as a regulator, ensuring that the voltage passing through the circuit remains steady.

The BZT52C3V0LP-7 is a reliable and versatile Zener diode, offering protection from overvoltage and voltage spikes. It can be used in many different consumer and industrial applications, from consumer electronics to industrial control systems. With its simple working principle and high power ratings, it is a great choice for many electronic applications.
