It has the ability to draw higher current ratings which makes it ideal for use in voltage regulator circuits. This diode also finds application in circuit protection, as it can provide protection against reversed polarities and surges. Additionally, it provides noise suppression by clamping high frequency signals between the breakdown and clamping voltages. This allows it to be used in applications such as low pass filters and EMI/RFI filters.

Working Principle of BZV55-B20,115

The BZV55-B20,115 is a zener diode which operates on the zener effect. The zener effect occurs when an electric current is passed through a semiconductor. The current is made up of both majority and minority carriers that flow in opposite directions. The minority carriers flow from the p-type region to the n-type region and the majority carriers flow from the n-type region to the p-type region. The process of recombination between the carriers occurs and when the electric field exerted by the majority carriers on the minority carriers exceeds a certain threshold, the breakdown or zener voltage occurs. As a result, a reverse breakdown voltage is created which is proportional to the intensity of the electric field. This voltage is then used as the reference voltage for a wide range of applications.

The BZV55-B20,115 has a reverse breakdown voltage of 20 V and a maximum power dissipation of 115 mW. It operates in the temperature range of -30°C to +85°C and has a peak reverse current of 5 mA. It is available as an axial leaded component and is designed for use in a wide range of commercial applications.
