MMSZ5253B-G3-18 is a single Zener diode that is used mainly in applications that require a robust and energy efficient voltage regulator. It is a three terminal device with a total power rating of 0.6 Watts and a maximum forward current rating of 500mA. The device features an operating temperature range of -65°C to 175°C, making it suitable for a wide range of applications ranging from automotive, military and industrial.

The operating principle of a Zener diode is based around its unique reverse biased biasing characteristics. The Zener diode acts as a voltage regulator due to the “Zener knee” that can be observed when the reverse bias voltage is increased beyond the maximum rated zener voltage (MZZ) of the diode. It can be represented as a voltage-controlled current source in the reverse bias region of operation as well as acting as a constant voltage source when the reverse bias voltage is higher than the maximum rated zener voltage. The relationship between the reverse bias voltage and the corresponding reverse current (IZ), can be expressed as:

IZ = f (VZ), Where VZ is the reverse bias voltage applied to the Zener diode

When the Zener diode is reverse biased with a voltage higher than the MZZ, the diode will experience a breakdown phenomena which is known as the “Zener knee” phenomenon. The Zener diode is designed to operate in this region in order to provide a stable voltage reference. The MMSZ5253B-G3-18 diode exhibits a reverse breakdown voltage at MZZ of 18V±10% with a maximum power dissipation of 0.6W. The Zener diode provides excellent temperature stability with a factor of ±0.2V/°C at 25°C.
