Introduction of PLZ16C-HG3/H

The PLZ16C-HG3/H by Nexperia is a single Zener diode, with a maximum reverse voltage of 32 V. This diode has a maximum continuous forward current of 1 A, and a power dissipation rate of 0.5 W. It has a junction temperature of 150°C. This diode\'s maximum reverse recovery time is 25.5 ns.

Application Field of PLZ16C-HG3/H

This single Zener diode is mainly used as an electronic component in circuits to provide precise protection against electrical over-voltage and over-currents. This diode is used as a voltage regulator to provide steady output voltage, by providing the surge protection circuit for digital equipment.This diode is also used for voltage reference generation. It has good spectral sensitivity and stability characteristics, making it suitable for use in damper diode applications, temperature compensating and power supply applications.

Working Principle of PLZ16C-HG3/H

A Zener diode works in a manner unlike that of a normal diode. It is essentially a type of breakdown diode and is designed specifically to break down when subjected to a certain voltage or current level. When the reverse voltage of the diode exceeds the rated voltage, the voltage drop across the junction is nearly constant, irrespective of the applied current. A Zener diode has a low dynamic impedance, meaning it can withstand significant changes in current without major changes in voltage. This characteristic makes it especially useful as a voltage regulator, allowing it to supply a constant voltage to a circuit, protecting it from overvoltage and overcurrents.

Conclusion

The PLZ16C-HG3/H is a single Zener diode, with a maximum reverse voltage of 32 V, and a maximum continuous forward current of 1 A. It is used for providing the surge protection circuit for digital equipment, voltage reference generation, and damper diode applications. This diode works differently from a normal diode, as it is designed to break down when subjected to an excess of voltage or current. The diode also has a low dynamic impedance, meaning it can provide a constant voltage to a circuit, protecting it from overvoltage and overcurrents.
