A Zener diode is an electronic component that allows the flow of current in one direction, while also having a breakdown voltage where it will allow an indirect flow of current in the opposite direction. The PZU8.2B2,115 is a specific type of Zener diode, classified as a single. It has an operating temperature range of -67°F to +302°F, a wattage rating of 0.5W, and a maximum reverse voltage of 2.1V. It is both UL approved (UL-94V-0) and RoHS compliant.

In most practical applications, Zener diodes are used for voltage regulation. When the reverse voltage of a PZU8.2B2,115 diode is less than the Zener voltage (2.1V), it acts like a normal diode, preventing current from flowing from anode to cathode. However, when an external voltage source applied across the diode exceeds the diode\'s Zener voltage, in this case 2.1V, current will flow from the anode to cathode, and the diode will regulate the voltage across the load. This is why the PZU8.2B2,115 is often used as a voltage regulator in circuits.

The principle behind Zener diodes is the Zener effect. When a diode is reverse-biased, meaning voltage is applied across it in the opposite direction as normal, any minority carriers (usually electrons) that manage to cross the reverse-biased barrier and reach into the n-region will be pushed right back by electric fields because of the strong potential barrier. This potential barrier gives minority carrier electrons enough energy to ionize other electrons in their vicinity, allowing them to cross the barrier.

This phenomenon is known as a Zener breakdown, which is the basis of Zener diodes. Because of their reverse current properties, Zener diodes can be used to regulate voltage. When a voltage exceeds the diode’s breakdown voltage, it will conduct current, allowing it to maintain a steady output voltage in the face of varying input voltages.

The PZU8.2B2,115 is a versatile Zener diode that can be used in applications such as voltage regulation, electronic circuit protection, and AC/DC pulse dampening. It can be used in low voltage circuits down to 1V or in high voltage circuits up to 2.1V. It is especially useful in high frequency circuits where the PZU8.2B2,115’s combination of fast switching speed and high reliability can be utilized. In addition, its RoHS compliance makes it a great choice for use in many electronic designs.

In summary, the PZU8.2B2,115 is a single Zener diode that is UL-94V-0 approved and RoHS compliant. It has an operating temperature range of -67°F to +302°F, a wattage rating of 0.5W, and a maximum reverse voltage of 2.1V. Its fast switching speed and high reliability make it useful for voltage regulation, circuit protection, and AC/DC pulse dampening. It is perfect for use in low voltage or high voltage circuits up to 2.1V and its RoHS compliance make it a great choice for use in many electronic designs.
