Diodes - Zener - Single

The MAZ8068GML Diode is an automotive Zener Diode specially designed for automotive applications. The zener is rated with an operating voltage of 6.8V and provides a power dissipation of 500mW, making it reliable and powerful. The diode is lead-free, RoHS compliant and is ideal for car electronics, industrial and automotive applications.

This diode features a double side cooled construction which improves thermal performance and helps to maintain maximum power dissipation over its operating voltage range. Furthermore, this diode contains a wide sintering area, providing extra space for heat dissipation. With a high reliability, the MAZ8068GML is suitable for most of the car electronics as it operates at a temperature range from -55 to +125 Celsius.

The MAZ8068GML is designed to regulate voltages at a regulated 6.8V level, protecting sensitive car electronics devices from voltage spikes and voltage drops, while at the same time providing the devices with a consistent and reliable power source. The diode works in the electrical circuit by providing a path of low resistance when the voltage on the device side is higher than the zener voltage, whereas it provides a high resistance path when the voltage on the device side is lower than the zener voltage.

The diode provides exceptional reverse transfer characteristics, preventing any unwanted current spikes from flowing back into the power source. This feature helps protect both the power source and the connected devices from any potential damage caused due to a surge. The diode is made to endure a wide temperature range, as well as vibration and shock, making it suitable for a variety of car electronics and industrial applications.

The MAZ8068GML diode is a high powered and reliable diode, suitable for the majority of car electronics and industrial applications. The diode’s low impedance and reverse transfer characteristics ensure protection of sensitive car electronics, while its wide power dissipation makes it suitable for use in a variety of environments and applications.
