A Zener diode is a particular type of diode, which allows current to flow in either direction, but breaks down at a certain voltage. The DFLZ20-7 is a single diode part of this family whose application field and working principle are discussed in the following.

The DFLZ20-7 is a 20-volt single diode, ideal for voltage control and high-precision solutions. Its maximum junction temperature is 150 degrees Celsius, its peak reverse current is 145 mA, and its continuous-reverse-voltage is 7 V. Generally, all single Zener diodes are suitable for blocking or voltage-regulating applications. For the DFLZ20-7 in particular, these include protection circuits, logic systems, power supplies, and many other industrial solutions.

The Zener diode works by allowing electrons to flow freely in one direction, as in a normal diode. Oppositely, when the voltage reaches a certain level - the breakdown voltage - it begins to conduct in both directions. This feature is what makes them widely used in voltage-regulation circuits, converters, and stabilization solutions. In other words, when the voltage reaches the breakdown value, it zeners the diode, allowing the current to flow in both ways without breaking the component. This way, those circuits are prevented from overvoltages, since the Zener clamps any voltage at or above the breakdown. Since the DFLZ20-7 is a 20-volt diode, it will continuously stop any voltage above 7 volts from going further and so protecting the rest of the components.

Therefore, the DFLZ20-7 is a versatile component that finds application in multiple solutions, including power supplies, voltage control circuits, logic circuits, converters, high-precision solutions, and stabilization solutions. It is easy to use and very reliable, making it ideal for high-voltage environment control in critical electronics.
