The GDZ13B-HG3-18 is a single Zener diode. It is a component used to limit the amount of electricity that flows into a circuit. The diode works by allowing current to flow in one direction while blocking current from running in the opposite direction. This is done by creating a voltage drop in one direction while maintaining voltage in the other direction.

The GDZ13B-HG3-18 is a 500 mW Zener diode. This design helps protect circuits against reverse voltage running in both the positive and negative directions. It is also able to handle temperatures up to 140°C.

This type of diode is used in a wide array of applications where a stable voltage is needed, such as regulating voltage in power supplies, power converters, and stabilizers. Other applications include signal processing and signal conditioning.

The working principle of the GDZ13B-HG3-18 is relatively simple. When operating normally, voltage drops from the anode if flow of electrons is in the direction from anode to cathode. When the reverse voltage across the diode exceeds the Zener breakdown voltage, current begins flowing from the anode to the cathode, thus maintaining the reverse voltage at that level.

This process enables the diode to regulate and maintain a specified voltage across its terminals. For example, if the Zener breakdown voltage of this diode is 5V, the diode will cause the voltage across its terminals to remain at 5V regardless of the voltage supplied to it.

The GDZ13B-HG3-18 is a single Zener diode. Its thermal design aids in dissipating heat quickly and its robust construction ensures long-term reliability. It is able to operate reliably in a wide range of temperatures, from -55°C to 140°C. This makes it a suitable choice for use in a variety of applications, from signal processing to protection against reverse voltage.
