The PDZ3.6BZ is a single Zener diode.

Zener diodes are one type of diode and are a semiconductor device whose primary function is to regulate voltage. Unlike normal diodes, they have a significantly low breakdown voltage. They are used in a variety of applications, mostly in voltage regulation and voltage protection. They are available in a range of approximate breakdown voltages usually from 2.4V to 200V, with some having breakdown voltages up to 600V.

The PDZ3.6BZ is designed to feature a 3.6V breakdown voltage and narrow tolerance. It has a reverse breakdown voltage of -3.63V with a maximum reverse current of 10mA. This makes it suitable for use in applications where low voltage protection is required such as in transistors, rectifiers, amplifiers, dc-dc converters, etc.

The PDZ3.6BZ is capable of producing a stable voltage output and is suitable for use in power supply circuits and voltage cutting applications. It can also be used in overvoltage protection circuits. It features a very low temperature coefficient and a fast switching speed.

In addition, the PDZ3.6BZ has a typical power dissipation rate of 400mW, with an operating temperature range between -55°C to +125°C. It is also capable of withstanding surge current up to 10A.

The working principle of a Zener diode lies in the fact that when a voltage higher than its breakdown voltage is applied to it in reverse bias, the diode creates a "Zener Breakdown”, meaning that current begins to flow in the opposite direction, allowing for the regulation of voltage.

In the case of the PDZ3.6BZ, this occurs when the reverse voltage applied is greater than 3.6V. At this point, current in the reverse direction begins to flow, causing a voltage drop of about 3.6V as it passes through, ensuring the desired voltage output.

In summary, the PDZ3.6BZ is a single Zener diode designed for use in a variety of applications, most notably in voltage regulation and protection circuits. It features a 3.6V breakdown voltage, -3.63V reverse voltage, 10mA maximum reverse current, 400mW power dissipation, and a fast switching speed. It utilizes the principle of Zener Breakdown in order to achieve a stable and accurate voltage output.
