A Zener diode is a type of diode that has been modified to operate in the reverse-biased condition. The PZU20B2L, 315 Zener diode is one of the most popular types of Zener diode, as it is specially designed for use in voltage regulation applications. This type of diode is also known as a voltage reference diode or a switching diode, due to its ability to drop or regulate an input voltage.

In a standard diode, electrons flow in one direction, as the anode which is the positively charged end is lower in potential than the cathode, or negative end. In a Zener diode, the conduction occurs in the reverse direction when the voltage at the anode rises above the Zener voltage. This voltage typically ranges from a few volts up to several hundred volts and is determined by the breakdown voltage of the diode.

The breakdown voltage of the PZU20B2L, 315 is 315 volts, with a maximum power rating of 0.5 watts. The diode is intended for use in applications such as voltage regulation, voltage limiting and overvoltage protection. It can also be used for temperature compensation, avalanche protection and surge protection.

The working principle of a Zener diode is based on the electron impact ionization phenomenon of a semiconductor material. When a reverse voltage is applied across the diode, an electric field is generated between the anode and the cathode. This electric field causes electrons to be enticed from the valence band to conduction band and allows them to move freely through the junction. This causes current to pass through the diode without applying any voltage.

The voltage at which the PZU20B2L, 315 diode begins to conduct is known as the Zener voltage. The Zener voltage allows it to be used as the reference point for the output voltage. This is because the circuit is designed such that the PZU20B2L, 315 will remain in regulation and conduct until the output voltage reaches the Zener voltage.

The Zener voltage of the PZU20B2L, 315 can also be adjusted to achieve a particular output voltage. This can be done by adding a variable resistor to the diode\'s circuit, which allows the user to adjust the diode\'s operating voltage, which in turn allows them to control the output voltage. This allows the PZU20B2L, 315 to be used in a wide range of voltage regulation applications.

The PZU20B2L, 315 Zener diode is a popular choice for use in voltage regulator applications, as it is relatively inexpensive and provides excellent regulation. Its ability to provide a stable output voltage, as well as its low power consumption make it well suited for use in a wide range of applications. Its small size also makes it convenient and easy to use, which makes it suitable for use in compact circuits.
