Introduction to PLZ10C-G3/H

PLZ10C-G3/H is a single zener diode which is able to withstand a maximum power dissipation of 360mW and a maximum reverse voltage of 10V. It is designed for use in DC/DC and AC/DC applications, such as voltage switching and voltage regulation.

Application Fields of PLZ10C-G3/H

PLZ10C-G3/H can be used in a wide range of applications, including:

1. Voltage Regulation - PLZ10C-G3/H can be used to regulate voltage in DC/DC and AC/DC applications. It is often used in applications where the input voltage is unbiased (i.e. neither AC nor DC). In this case, the diode\'s zener characteristic allows the voltage to be regulated with precision.
2. Voltage Switching - PLZ10C-G3/H can also be used for voltage switching. When a higher voltage is applied to the diode, the voltage will be “switched” to a lower voltage. This is useful for applications such as switching power supplies, where the input and output voltages need to be precisely regulated.
3. Overvoltage Protection - PLZ10C-G3/H can also be used in overvoltage protection circuits. In this application, the diode is used to prevent the circuit from being damaged due to excessive voltage.

Working Principle of PLZ10C-G3/H

PLZ10C-G3/H works on the basis of the zener effect. When a voltage is applied to the diode, a certain amount of current will flow. As the voltage increases, the current will increase up to a point where the zener effect takes place. This is known as the zener voltage or zener breakdown voltage. At this point, the current will steeply increase and the voltage will remain constant (i.e. it will not increase any further). This is known as the zener region. By controlling the current in this region, it is possible to precisely regulate the voltage.

Once the voltage has reached the zener voltage, the diode will remain in a "zener state" until the applied voltage decreases. This makes it possible to use PLZ10C-G3/H for applications such as overvoltage protection. When the voltage exceeds the zener voltage, the diode will act as a switch, allowing a current to flow and therefore preventing the circuit from being damaged due to excessive voltage.
