Diodes - Zener - Single

The PLZ3V6B-G3/H is a single zener diode, a type of semiconductor diode. Zener diodes are designed to allow current to flow in either direction through the diode, but when the voltage exceeds the breakdown voltage, it starts conducting in the reverse direction. This protects the circuit from overvoltage conditions or short circuits.

Application field

The PLZ3V6B-G3/H single zener diode is mainly used in power supplies, especially in voltage regulators and voltage stabilizers. It can be useful in many other projects as well when surge protection and/or precision voltage modulation is required. It can be used as a voltage reference, or to form a voltage divider.

Working principle

The PLZ3V6B-G3/H single zener diode works by allowing direct current (DC) flow through the diode in one direction, and blocking current flow in the other direction. When a specific high voltage is applied from the anode to the cathode, the diode breaks down, allowing current to flow in both directions. This prevents the circuit from overvoltage conditions or from short-circuiting.

When the reverse bias voltage across the diode reaches the breakdown voltage, the diode is said to be “zener-ing”. The voltage regulation across the diode is regulated by the zener voltage. If the reverse bias voltage is higher than the zener voltage, the diode will try to regulate the voltage to the zener voltage—this is how it is useful in voltage regulation or voltage stabilization.

The power supply is used to provide constant voltage output. The PLZ3V6B-G3/H single zener diode is connected in parallel to the load. When the load draws current, the voltage drops. The zener diode preserves the voltage drop and supplies the load with constant voltage across its terminals.

One of the primary advantages of the PLZ3V6B-G3/H single zener diode is its low resistance and inherent stability. This diode can be used in circuits where the output current is required to be low and stable as well, since it is designed to regulate the voltage. It is a very versatile component and can be used in a wide range of circuit designs.

The PLZ3V6B-G3/H single zener diode is ideal for any project that requires a low resistance and stable voltage regulation. It is a great choice for voltage regulation, surge protection, and forming voltage dividers. With its versatile performance and reliability, the PLZ3V6B-G3/H is the right choice for voltage regulation and voltage stabilization.
