Working Principle

CDLL5247A diode works on the principle of reverse breakdown voltage. This component pairs with an auxillary diode. Firstly, the intrinsic diode moves current from the cathode to the anode when the forward voltage bias is applied.

When the reverse bias voltage is applied, then according to reverse breakdown voltage, the current starts flowing from anode to cathode. This current is known as reverse leakage current. This diode is designed to break down at a certain reverse voltage. It is important that the reverse breakdown voltage is kept below the input voltage rating in order to protect the circuit.

CDLL5247A diode can handle high peak power and current in the form of pulse for a short duration. It is capable of generating negative voltage and can reduce noise when used in the reverse bias form. This component is useful in many applications and helps in protecting the circuit from voltage spikes and other electrical noise.
