This diode is most commonly used in voltage regulation and static protection in telecom, computer, and industrial equipment. In this article, we’ll discuss the application field and the working principle of the PDZ24B,115 Zener single diode.

Application Field of PDZ24B,115

The majority of PDZ24B,115 diode applications involve voltage regulation or protecting circuits from static electricity. These applications usually require reliability, low heat dissipation, high reverse voltage and reverse current ratings as well as low forward voltage. The most typical uses of PDZ24B,115 device is to provide voltage regulation in telecom, computer and industrial equipment. Other common uses of the PDZ24B,115 include static protection in RF amplifiers and transmitters and various audio applications as well as server power supplies.

The PDZ24B,115 can also be used in circuit boards to suppress over-voltage and prevent current back-feeding. It is especially useful for automotive, marine, or other harsh environment applications due to its high temperature, vibrations and shock resistance. In addition, it can be used in power supplies to provide over-voltage protection and to provide a reference voltage for circuit components.

Working Principle of PDZ24B,115

The PDZ24B,115 is a Zener single diode constructed from a robust combination of materials and structures. Its basic structure consists of two dissimilar layers: the P-type layer and the N-type layer. The P-type layer is formed of a semiconductor material with a high impurity concentration. This layer is responsible for the diode’s high reverse voltage rating.

The N-type layer is composed of a semiconductor material with a low impurity concentration. This layer is responsible for the diode’s low forward voltage drop and low reverse current. In addition, the N-type layer also serves to protect the P-type layer from damage during operation. The combination of these two layers forms a junction, which limits the current flow in one direction and prevents the current from flowing in the other direction.

When the voltage across the junction exceeds the breakdown voltage, or Zener voltage, of the diode, the current through the junction will begin to flow. This results in a steady state of current that passes through the junction, causing a voltage drop across the diode. This is the voltage regulation of the diode. The component can be used to regulate the voltage across a circuit, provide static protection, and provide a reference voltage for circuit components.

Conclusion

The PDZ24B,115 is an ideal component for a variety of applications due to its high reverse voltage and current ratings, along with its low forward voltage drop. It has many uses in voltage regulation and static protection, as well as other audio, RF, and industrial applications. The PDZ24B,115 is based on a P-type and N-type junction, which is formed by combining materials which have different impurity concentrations. When the voltage across the junction exceeds the diode’s breakdown voltage, the current will begin to flow, resulting in voltage regulation of the circuit.
