Diodes with Zener function exhibit a sharp drop in voltage when current is passed through them in forward direction. This kind of diode is called a Zener diode. The MMSZ3V6T1 is a single Zener diode from the Vishay Semiconductor family. The MMSZ3V6T1 has a reverse working voltage of 3.6V. Meaning that when a current of 3.6V is passed through it, in reverse direction, it begins to conduct.

The MMSZ3V6T1 is a 3V6 type single Zener diode most widely used in power-supply circuits for controlling over-voltages and for voltage regulation. The diode has a high reverse power dissipation rating of 1W and its low forward voltage drop makes it an ideal diode for voltage regulation. The diode is also temperature compensated, meaning it is able to regulate a constant voltage even with temperature fluctuations.

The MMSZ3V6T1 operates using the Zener breakdown effect. Whenever the voltage across the diode is greater than the breakdown voltage, also known as the Zener voltage, the diode begins to conduct. This breakdown effect occurs because when the voltage is increased, the dielectric strength of the material of the diode decreases and thus the diode can conduct current in the reverse direction.

The MMSZ3V6T1 is a one of the most commonly used Zener diodes in circuits. Due to its rating of 3V6, it can be used in a wide variety of applications, such as; power-supply circuits, voltage regulation, over-voltage protection and rectification. The diode\'s temperature compensation feature also makes it suitable to be used in temperature-sensitive applications.

The MMSZ3V6T1 diode is easy to handle and is relatively cheap. It is also a robust component and since it is a one of the most popular Zener diodes around, it is also readily available. It is an excellent choice for many diode related applications.
