DZ2J22000L Application Field and Working Principle

A Zener diode typically have a reversed biased breakdown voltage between 0.2 and 200 volts. The DZ2J22000L is a high performance Zener diode which has a breakdown voltage of 22 volts. It is used in many fields and applications because of its performance and ability to withstand high power dissipation.

In its application field, the DZ2J22000L Zener diode is mainly used in the power supplies and monitor lines of electric and electronic products. It can also be integrated in circuits and machines to control the voltage level and provide reliable protection against electrical over-voltage and damage.

Additionally, the DZ2J22000L can be used as a voltage regulator in battery-powered electronics, to prevent damage due to overvoltage or undervoltage. The device could also be used in security systems and communication equipment in order to guarantee reliable data transmission.

The DZ2J22000L working principle is based on the concept of a pure p-n junction. The diode has a high reverse-bias breakdown voltage, making it the ideal choice for applications where high voltage and minimum current conduction are required. When a voltage higher than its breakdown voltage applied across the pins of the device, the electric field between the n- and p-doped regions of the junction increases until it reaches a value called avalanche voltage, at which point the device avalanche breakdown occurs.

A Zener diode avalanche breakdown works in a similar way to avalanche multiplication in a bipolar transistor. When avalanche breakdown occurs, a large current flows through the device and it maintains an almost constant voltage in spite of variations of the external voltage applied to it. That’s why the DZ2J22000L can be used as a voltage regulator.
