Diodes - Zener - Single

The PLZ10A-HG3/H is a single zener diode with maximum reverse voltages of 10V, in a conventional SOD-323 flat lead type package, and is part of the Pletronics Inc. family of diodes. It has a low leakage current, a wide range of reverse voltages and an operating temperature range of -55C to +125C. The PLZ10A-HG3/H has a 49V peak reverse voltage and a 10mA continuous forward current capability. It is designed for low power applications including voltage reference, voltage regulation and reverse surge protection.

Application Field

The PLZ10A-HG3/H single zener diode can be used in many applications as reverse voltage protection, voltage reference, voltage regulation, and other surge protection applications. It is suitable for low power applications such as computers, cell phones, TVs, laptops, and other electronic equipment.

The PLZ10A-HG3/H single Zener diode is ideal for use in battery powered applications, such as in hearing aids, sensors and LED lights, as it provides a stable voltage and current regulation. It can also be used in automotive applications where surge protection is required. Additionally, it can be used as a voltage reference in voltage regulator and amplifier circuits.

Working Principle

The PLZ10A-HG3/H single zener diode works on the principle of a diode with special avalanche characteristics. It allows a current to pass through it in one direction, while blocking current in the other direction. When connected in reverse bias, current will flow in the reverse direction when the voltage reaches a certain threshold voltage which is known as the Zener voltage. This Zener voltage will remain constant over a wide range of temperatures.

The PLZ10A-HG3/H single zener diode has a voltage drop of 10V, which is the Zener voltage. This same voltage drop is maintained under various conditions such as temperature variations, even when the reverse voltage is increased. Thus, they are used in voltage regulator and other circuitry by providing a constant voltage reference under varying conditions. It is also used in current protection devices such as surge protectors.

The single Zener diode also serves as a voltage clamp. A voltage clamp is a device which allows current through but prevents any further increase in voltage. It can be used to protect other devices from high voltage transients.

The PLZ10A-HG3/H single zener diode is a useful tool for a slew of applications. It can be used as a voltage regulator or a surge protector for any circuit, or for protection of other components from high voltage transients. It is also an ideal choice for low-power voltage reference and/or voltage regulation applications.
