Working Principle

The working principle behind PZU4.7B2L, 315 is based on the reverse breakdown feature of a diode. When a voltage is applied to the diode, the current flows in a certain direction until the voltage reaches a certain point. Once the voltage goes beyond, the current will flow in the other direction. This feature is known as the reverse breakdown.

In the case of PZU4.7B2L, 315, when the voltage reaches the breakdown point, the current flowing through the component begins to increase exponentially. This exponential increase in the current helps to maintain a constant voltage level despite any small changes in the input voltage. The component also helps in maintaining a stable output voltage.
