Diodes - Zener - Single

The BZT52C3V6T-7 is a Zener diode, which is used for voltage regulation in power supplies, as well as for signal level clipping and ac-dc voltage conversion. It is a single-stage, 400mW silicon Zener diode that provides stable and efficient voltage regulation.

Application Field

The BZT52C3V6T-7 is primarily used in power supply circuits requiring information from a sensing element. It is also often used in mixed-signal applications, such as microcontrollers and analog circuits. It can be used as a voltage limiter in TTL logic circuits and as a noise suppression diode in radio receivers. In addition, it can be used as a reference voltage source or to control the base bias voltage of transistors and cells.

Working Principle

The BZT52C3V6T-7 works by utilizing a reverse biasing to form a pile-up of electrons on its p-type layer. This generates a voltage gradient across the diode, which causes current to flow in the reverse direction when there is an applied voltage across the diode. When the applied voltage is greater than the voltage of the reverse biasing, the diode conducts current in the forward direction. The Zener diode, being a special type of diode, has an imposed reverse breakdown voltage, beyond which the diode becomes highly conductive.

The particular voltage of the BZT52C3V6T-7 is 3.6 volts, which makes it suitable for use in applications requiring a precise level of voltage regulation. When connected in series with a load, this diode can be used to regulate the voltage supplied to the load. When the input voltage is higher than the Zener voltage, a current passes through the diode and the excess voltage is dissipated as heat. Conversely, if the input voltage is lower than the Zener voltage, then the diode blocks the current and maintains the output voltage at the Zener voltage.

The BZT52C3V6T-7 has a wide range of applications, due to its precise and efficient voltage regulation. It is an ideal diode for many consumer electronics, medical and industrial devices, as well as for computer and telecom equipment. Moreover, with its low forward voltage drop and fast reverse recovery time, the diode provides reliable circuit protection from voltage transients.
