FLZ7V5B Discrete Semiconductor Products

Introduction

The FLZ7V5B is a single zener diode designed specifically for general purpose use. It has a wide operating temperature range, high reliability, and a good power dissipation rating. This article will discuss the application field and working principle of the FLZ7V5B.

Application Field

The FLZ7V5B is commonly used in many different applications. For example, it can be used as a voltage regulator, a reference voltage source, or as a shunt regulator. It can also be used to provide over-voltage protection and reduce electrical noise in sensitive applications such as laptop computers and other electronic systems. Additionally, it can be used to provide a reference voltage for voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs) and current-controlled oscillators (CCOs). The FLZ7V5B is also ideal for use in automotive and other high-temperature applications. Its low reverse leakage current and wide operating temperature range make it well suited for use in these environments.

Working Principle

The FLZ7V5B is a single zener diode, which means it can conduct current in both the forward and reverse directions. In the forward direction, it behaves like a normal diode, allowing current to pass when a forward bias is applied. In the reverse direction, when a reverse bias voltage is applied, the FLZ7V5B behaves like a zener diode and conducts current at a constant voltage, regardless of the applied current. This constant voltage is known as the “zener voltage”, and it is a function of the diode’s zener breakdown voltage. The zener breakdown voltage is the minimum voltage at which the diode begins to conduct current. The FLZ7V5B is designed to have a maximum zener breakdown voltage of 7.5 volts. The FLZ7V5B also has a built in voltage regulator, meaning it can regulate the output voltage, regardless of the input voltage. This allows the FLZ7V5B to be used to maintain a constant voltage output, even when the input voltage fluctuates.

Conclusion

The FLZ7V5B is a single zener diode designed for general purpose use. It has a wide operating temperature range, high reliability and a good power dissipation rating. It can be used for a variety of applications, including voltage regulation, over-voltage protection, or as a reference voltage source. Additionally, it has a built-in voltage regulator, allowing it to maintain a constant output voltage regardless of the input voltage.
