GP1602 C0G is an array of zener diodes, specifically designed to protect circuits from transient voltage overloads. They provide voltage clamping and allow the overvoltage protection of sensitive components. Their extremely fast response time makes them ideal for use in applications like LED lighting, automotive electronics, and audio systems to protect from fast rising spike voltages. As the GP1602 C0G array is capable of withstanding high breakdown voltages of up to 20V, it provides excellent protection for sensitive components such as transistors, integrated circuits and diodes.

The GP1602 C0G array is made up of 16 zener diodes that are organized in four rows and four columns. Each diode is connected between the anode and the cathode of the preferred row and column. The diode is protected on the anode side by the short circuit current limit, so that even if the voltage rises above the rated voltage, the current will stay within the allowed limit. On the cathode side, the protection is provided by the overvoltage protection circuit. This protection circuit ensures that the voltage of the protected device does not exceed its rated value.

In order to understand the working principle of the GP1602 C0G array, we must first understand the concept of a Zener diode. A Zener diode is generally comprised of two parts—an anode, which is the positive side, and a cathode which is the negative side. It is composed of a p-n junction, which is formed when a layer of positively charged electrons is placed against the negatively charged region. The junction breaks down when it is subjected to a voltage higher than the reverse breakdown voltage – this characteristic is called zener breakdown. In this breakdown state, the diode is able to pass a large amount of current, but the voltage across it is held at a constant level.

The GP1602 C0G array utilizes this particular type of zener diode in order to protect circuits and components from transient overvoltage spikes. The overvoltage protection circuit is designed to detect the moment when the voltage exceeds the rated value and to trigger the breakdown of the zener diode. This causes the diode to allow the current to pass through, and the voltage is clamped at the level of the breakdown voltage. As the current is limited due to the short circuit protection, the overall current exceeding the rated value is prevented from flowing through the circuit.

The GP1602 C0G array is a great solution for protecting circuits from transients, as it is extremely fast and provides excellent protection for sensitive components. It is used in a variety of applications, and the robust design ensures a long service life. It is available in a variety of resistance values, and customers can choose the one best suited to their application. The response time of the GP1602 C0G array is one of the fastest of all the Zener diode arrays available, making it a great choice for applications that require maximum protection.
