The BZX85C16 is a 16-V zener diode commonly used in consumer electronics. It has a low-forward voltage drop and is designed specifically for automotive, telecommunications and industrial applications. The diode works as a voltage regulator, providing stable, regulated power when its current flows through it.

The BZX85C16 consists of a Zener diode, as indicated by its sub type. A Zener diode consists of a semiconductor junction which is reversed biased. When a reverse voltage is applied to the diode, the barrier across the semiconductor junction is breached and a current flows through the junction. The reverse-bias voltage is the Zener voltage. The voltage remains constant as long as the current increases, which causes the diode to act as a regulator for the applied voltage. The current flow is limited by the internal resistance of the diode, and when the current is too high, the voltage across the diode starts to drop as the power dissipated increases.

The Zener diodes in the BZX85C16 are designed to provide not only regulated power but also over voltage protection. When the voltage exceeds the Zener voltage of the diode, the current through the diode increases and the power dissipated increases as well, which causes the Zener diode to reduce its internal resistance and shunt much of the excess voltage. This action helps to protect the component from damage due to overvoltage.

The BZX85C16 zener diode is designed for use in a variety of applications including automotive, telecommunications, and industrial applications. In automotive applications, the diode can be used to protect components in the engine from overvoltages on the vehicle’s electrical system. The diode can also be used to regulate the current in the system by providing a constant voltage. It can also be used in other applications such as in telecommunications and industrial applications where overvoltage protection is needed. The BZX85C16 is also capable of providing safety features such as short-circuit protection, ESD protection, over-temperature protection, and reverse polarity protection.

The BZX85C16 is an effective and cost-effective solution for providing voltage regulation and over voltage protection in a wide variety of applications. The diode can be used in both DC and AC circuits, and can be purchased in various package sizes and ratings. The diode’s ability to provide over voltage protection makes it an ideal choice for protecting components from damage due to accidental overvoltage, thus allowing for lower system repair costs.
