Diodes - Zener - Single

The JAN1N3821A-1 component is an integrated component of a semi-conductor device and it belong to the family of diodes, which are of course, essential electronic components with a wide range of applications.

This specific component, JAN1N3821A-1, falls into the category of ‘Zener’ diodes, which, unlike most other diodes, are designed to pass Electricity in both directions.

The JAN1N3821A-1 component is an single pole component, meaning it has only one connection, and it is highly suitable for use in low voltage applications, due its compatibility with low currents.

Electrical Characteristics

The JAN1N3821A-1 component has a maximum forward voltage of 1.2V and a reverse voltage range of 3V to 75V. It also has a reverse voltage maximum dissipation of 500mW, and its total power dissipation rate is 1.5W. It is also a non-isolated component, meaning it must be electrically connected to everything else in the circuit.

This component also has a relatively low leakage current, which is less than 0.1mA. It has a reverse recovery time of 5.0ns, and its threshold voltage is 3V. Its forward voltage drop is also very low, coming in at 1.2V, allowing it to work with low currents.

JAN1N3821A-1 also features an average capacitance of approximately 4.5 pF and an average breakdown voltage of approximately 5.5V. Its breakdown voltage is also relatively low, meaning it can work efficiently in most applications and conditions where a higher breakdown voltage would be required by other components.

Working Principle of the JAN1N3821A-1

The working principle of the JAN1N3821A-1 component is fairly simple. When a current is passed through it in either direction, the current will be clipped in a process called Zener breakdown. This happens when the voltage across the circuit exceeds the component\'s breakdown voltage.

The component will then effectively act as a resistor and reduce the amount of current that is passed to the rest of the circuit, thus ensuring that no further damage is done. This allows the component to act as an insulator, creating a very reliable and safe circuit.

Application Field

The JAN1N3821A-1 component is particularly useful in applications that require a safe, reliable power source, such as battery packs and power supplies. In these applications, the component will protect the rest of the circuit, as it limits the amount of current that can pass through it.

It is also a popular choice in low voltage audio applications, due to its low voltage drop, allowing it to work with low current without affecting the quality of the audio signal. Furthermore, it is also useful in the production of protection circuits, as it will provide added protection against over-voltage or overcurrent damage.

The component is also highly suited to high-frequency applications, as it can easily accept and control high-currents. This makes it ideal for use in signal conditioning applications, oscillators and pulse circuits.

Conclusion

The JAN1N3821A-1 component is a very versatile and reliable component, which is suitable for a wide range of applications. Its ability to effectively limit current and provide reliable protection makes it an excellent choice for a variety of applications. It is easy to use, and its low voltage drop allows it to work with low current without affecting the quality of the signal.
