CZRER52C20

The CZRER52C20 is a zener diode from the Single type range of products. It offers both high power and stable operation for optimal performance. It has a reverse breakdown voltage, VZ, of 58V, a power rating of 1W, and a maximum reverse current, IR, of 300μA. CZRER52C20 has an extended temperature range of -55°C to +125°C, making it suitable for use in a variety of environments.

The main application field of CZRER52C20 is surge protection in industrial, automotive and telecommunication applications, such as in TV sets, computers, and guitars.

The working principle of CZRER52C20 is simple, yet effective. The diode allows current to flow in only one direction, namely from the anode (positive) terminal to the cathode (negative) terminal. This prevents current from flowing in the reverse direction. In addition, the reverse breakdown voltage of the diode kicks in when the voltage on the anode side reaches VZ, this ensures that current does not flow in the reverse direction, even if the applied voltage exceeds VZ. The maximum reverse current, IR, defines the minimum current that will flow when the applied voltage is greater than VZ.

In summary, CZRER52C20 is a single type zener diode with a reverse breakdown voltage of 58V, a power rating of 1W and a maximum reverse current of 300μA. Its application field is surge protection in industrial, automotive and telecommunication applications, and its working principle is based on the principle of allowing current to flow in only one direction.
