JANTXV1N757C-1

Diodes - Zener - Single refer to single-junction zener diodes, which are widely used in electronic applications due to their low cost and ability to handle reverse bias conditions. JANTXV1N757C-1 is one of the widely used devices in this category. This application note will provide an overview of its working principle and application fields.

Introduction to JANTXV1N757C-1

JANTXV1N757C-1 is a single junction zener diode, manufactured by Vishay. It is a silicon junction diode with a low forward voltage drop, a low leakage current and a relatively short reverse-recovery time. The breakdown voltage of the JANTXV1N757C-1 is 7.5V and its power rating is 1 Watt.

Working Principle of JANTXV1N757C-1

A single junction zener diode has a forward-bias junction that allows current to flow, and a separate zener junction that provides the reverse-bias breakdown voltage. The zener junction is designed to break down when the applied reverse-bias voltage exceeds a certain level, allowing a reverse current to flow.

The breakdown voltage of the JANTXV1N757C-1 is 7.5V. This means that when the reverse bias applied to the device exceeds 7.5V, it will break down and allow current to flow in the reverse direction. The device has a low forward voltage drop of 0.45V, which means that there is relatively little voltage drop in the forward direction.

Application Fields of JANTXV1N757C-1

The JANTXV1N757C-1 is widely used in various applications due to its low cost and short reverse-recovery time. It is commonly used in voltage regulation, over-voltage protection and voltage clamping circuits. It can also be used in low power audio pre-amplifiers, power supplies, motor controllers and industrial automation circuits.

The device can also be used in automotive electronics, where it is used for voltage regulation, over-voltage protection and load monitoring. Additionally, it is sometimes used as a series element in voltage boost converters and lighting circuits.
