The PLZ16C-G3/H Zener Diode is an ideal choice when engineers need a high quality, economical solution. This high-performance Zener, manufactured by Panasonic, is designed to provide reliable operation, long life, and excellent performance in a range of applications.

The PLZ16C-G3/H Zener Diode is a single-diode device with a 12-kV breakdown voltage (Vset, the nominal Zener voltage). It is constructed with an ultra-thin junction layer designed to provide excellent thermal stability, making it ideal for use in high-temperature environments. Its low reverse leakage current and turn-on voltage make it a suitable choice for use in a variety of comparator and protection circuits, as well as in voltage regulation.

The PLZ16C-G3/H Zener Diode has a minimum Vset of 16V and a 1W power dissipation rating. It is available in both DO-41 and SOD-123 surface mount packages, ensuring that engineers can select the package that best suits the requirements of their application. The PLZ16C-G3/H Zener Diode is RoHS compliant, halogen-free, and lead-free, making it a suitable choice for applications needing to comply with environmental standards.

The working principle of a diode is based on the fact that current flows more easily in one direction than the other. When a diode is forward biased, current will only flow from anode to cathode, whereas if it is reverse biased, current will flow from cathode to anode. Applying a reverse voltage higher than the diode’s breakdown voltage causes avalanche breakdown, enabling greater current to flow from cathode to anode. In the case of the PLZ16C-G3/H Zener Diode, this breakdown voltage is 12-kV.

The PLZ16C-G3/H Zener Diode can be used in a range of applications. It is particularly suited to applications that require a consistent voltage output, such as voltage regulators. It is also commonly used in analog circuits to provide over-voltage protection, in comparator circuits to hold reference voltages, and in surge protectors to limit the magnitude of incoming voltage spikes. In addition, its low reverse leakage current makes it an ideal choice for use in power supply circuits.

In addition to its uses in circuits, the PLZ16C-G3/H Zener Diode can also be employed in non-electrical applications. Its excellent thermal stability makes it a suitable choice for relays and other types of switches. It can also be used as a temperature sensor, with changes in the diode’s breakdown voltage correlating to changes in its environment’s temperature.

The PLZ16C-G3/H Zener Diode is a versatile device that can provide critical protection and accurate regulation in a range of circuits. Thanks to its low turn-on voltage, low reverse leakage current, and excellent thermal stability, users can be confident of reliable performance and long life, even in the toughest applications.
