GDZ6V8B-HG3-08: Single Zener Diode

Single Zener diodes are electronic components that can be used to regulate voltage levels, suppress electrical noise, and select proper levels for reliable system operations. The GDZ6V8B-HG3-08 from Intersil is a single zener diode capable of performing these tasks in a wide range of applications. This article outlines the application field and working principle of the GDZ6V8B-HG3-08.

Applications

The GDZ6V8B-HG3-08 is designed for use in a wide range of applications. It can be used to form a voltage reference, to regulate the amplitude of an AC signal, to isolate two logic levels in digital systems, or to form the reference level with a geartooth or inductive sensor. It is also appropriate for use in multiplexer systems, automatic voltage control systems, and isolation and switching control applications. Additionally, the device can be used to control the output of a power supply or create a highly reliable short circuit protection for high voltage systems.

Working Principle

The GDZ6V8B-HG3-08 functions in a reverse mode from a diode. When used as a voltage regulator, the device forward biases until the voltage reaches the specified zener breakdown voltage. Once this voltage is reached, the device will enter the reverse breakdown region and the voltage across the device will begin to drop until the forward voltage is reached. The voltage is then held at the zener breakdown voltage, effectively regulating the voltage.

As a voltage suppressor, the device will clamp or limit the voltage levels of signals passing through it. This is achieved by the forward biased diode. If the voltage on the cathode side reaches the forward voltage, it will begin to conduct which will clamp the voltage levels. This is useful for providing protection against short circuits and eliminating noise and instability on voltage levels.

Conclusion

The GDZ6V8B-HG3-08 is a versatile single zener diode, capable of performing a variety of tasks. It can be used to regulate voltage levels, suppress electrical noise, select proper levels for reliable system operations, provide protection against short circuits, and eliminate voltage instability. By understanding the applications and working principle of the GDZ6V8B-HG3-08, engineers and designers are better equipped to make use of the device in their applications.
