DZ2S20000L Application Field and Working Principle

The DZ2S20000L is a series of Zener Single Diode products by Diodes Incorporated. It can be used in a variety of markets, such as consumer electronics, computer products, computers, and automotive electronics. It is also ideal for low noise immunity and light load applications. In general, it offers superior surge reliability, superior temperature stability, and superior power dissipation capability.

The DZ2S20000L is a small signal diode with a maximum power dissipation rating of 200 mW. It features low capacitance, low capacitance plus ESD protection, and high temperature capability. It is available in both surface mount and through-hole packages. The DZ2S20000L is RoHS compliant, meeting all of the regulatory requirements.

The working principle of the DZ2S20000L is based on the Zener breakdown mechanism. In a normal p-n junction, when the voltage applied is less than the breakdown voltage, current flow is blocked. But when a voltage greater than the breakdown voltage is applied, a negative resistance region is established and current flows in both directions. This is the essence of the Zener breakdown mechanism, where a small amount of current will become larger and larger, maintaining a reverse voltage across the diode.

Applications of the DZ2S20000L include surge protection, ESD protection, over-voltage protection, and voltage regulation. Its advantages include low forward voltage drop, high temperature stability, and excellent surge and ESD protection. Its features make it suited for both low-noise immunity and light load applications.

In summary, the DZ2S20000L series of Zener single diode products provide superior power dissipation, low forward voltage drop, and excellent surge and ESD protection. It is suitable for a variety of markets, such as consumer electronics, computer products, computers, and automotive electronics. Moreover, it features low capacitance, low capacitance plus ESD protection, and high temperature capability.
