Diodes are an integral part of any electronic component and they play a key role in many of its applications. The BZX84C3V3-7 is a Zener Diode with a single breakdown voltage of 18 volts, making them suitable for a range of applications.

What is a Zener Diode?

A Zener diode is a type of diode that allows current to flow in both directions but in the reverse direction, it offers a low resistance. It can be thought of as a speciality diode which offers a reaction that is different than the usual reverse voltage blocking. The BZX84C3V3-7 Zener has a breakdown voltage of 18 volts which means that it will allow current to flow in the reverse direction above 18 volts.

BZX84C3V3-7 Application Fields

The BZX84C3V3-7 Zener diode can be used in many applications from electronics to power management. It is used in calibrations circuits and in voltage regulation circuits as it offers a precise breakdown voltage which makes it ideal for power regulation and for providing a stable voltage source for an electronic circuit. It can also be used in clipping circuits, to protect against high voltages by diverting them to ground, and in noise suppression circuits.

BZX84C3V3-7 Working Principle

This Zener diode works on the principle that when a voltage which is higher than its breakdown voltage is applied to its anode, the current starts flowing in its reverse direction and the breakdown voltage across it stabilises. This helps in obtaining a stable voltage output in the presence of an unstable voltage input. As the applied voltage increases, the diode current increases and it reaches a point where the diode current is steady and the voltage across it gets stabilised. As the input voltage fluctuates, the breakdown voltage remains stable and hence the output voltage is also maintained.

The BZX84C3V3-7 Zener diode offers a single breakdown voltage of 18 volts which makes it suitable for use in a wide range of applications. It can be used in power regulation, noise suppression and calibration circuits as it helps in obtaining a stable voltage output in the presence of an unstable voltage input.
