DDZX27D-7 Discrete Semiconductor Products

The DDZX27D-7 is a single Zener diode that is used to provide over-voltage protection and regulation, primarily in electronic circuits. It has a high maximum reverse voltage that is capable of sustaining voltages up to 27V, and it has low leakage, preventing any current from flowing in the wrong direction. The diode also has a low dynamic impedance, making it suitable for use in a wide variety of applications. It is available in a standard DO-27 package for easy mounting and installation.

The primary purpose of a Zener diode is to provide a stable voltage source within a circuit when under the influence of higher voltage spikes. When the applied voltage reaches the Zener voltage, the diode breaks down and allows current to flow. The current regulates the voltage, preventing it from exceeding the Zener voltage. This makes the diode an ideal choice for use in safety systems such as power supplies and over-voltage protection circuits.

The DDZX27D-7 is also capable of operating over a wide range of temperatures, making it suitable for use in many environmental conditions. The diode\'s low dynamic impedance ensures the protection level is not affected by the temperature variation. As the temperature increases, the diode\'s resistance to current flow decreases, providing steady and reliable protection.

In addition to its ability to provide over-voltage protection, the DDZX27D-7 also offers excellent noise reduction. The diode filters out any external noise and disturbances, ensuring a stable voltage output. This makes the diode a great choice for use in audio and video equipment, radio receivers, communication systems and computers.

The DDZX27D-7 is an ideal choice for use in a variety of applications, from power supplies and power protection to communications and entertainment systems. Its high maximum reverse voltage and low dynamic impedance provide reliable protection against over-voltage, while its low-noise characteristics make it suitable for use in sensitive equipment.
