Introduction

RLZTE-1115A is a single zener diode in an easily recognizable black SOT-23 package. It is a low noise, high efficiency zener diode designed to protect circuitry and components in DC applications. This device is suitable for use in metal-oxide semiconductor (MOS) integrated circuit (IC) applications, such as surge suppression in ICs, and low-power RF transmission circuits.

Features and Benefits

RLZTE-1115A has a high forward current rating (1A) and a relatively low forward voltage passing rating (3V). The high forward current rating means that the RLZTE-1115A can be used for applications that require high current passing capability. The diode has an exceptional reverse current rating of 900µA. This high reverse current rating allows the device to be more robust in maintaining voltage levels during over current conditions, making the device well suited for applications such as RF sensor controls and surge suppressors for MOS ICs.Additionally, due to the high forward current and low reverse current ratings, the RLZTE-1115A is also highly effective in combating electrostatic discharge (ESD) events, a common cause of component failure in electronic devices, while still providing protection to the component and circuitry.

Application Field and Working Principle

The RLZTE-1115A is primarily designed for use in DC applications, such as MOS ICs, portable electronic devices, computer and telecommunications equipment, automotive electronics, industrial control and household appliances. The RLZTE-1115A operates as a standard zener diode. When the anode terminal is more positive than the other terminal, the diode will allow current to flow from anode to cathode. The diode prevents current from flowing in the opposite direction, thereby resisting the application of an increasing reverse voltage. When the reverse voltage exceeds the breakdown voltage, referred to as the “Zener Voltage”, current begins to flow in the reverse direction through the diode. The idea is that the current from the positive side will be diverted in the reverse direction, thereby limiting the voltage increase. The Zener Voltage is the preset voltage at which the diode will begin to allow current to flow in the reverse direction. The Zener Voltage of the RLZTE-1115A is regulated within a range of 5.8V to 7.2V, depending on the specific model. Once the voltage reaches the breakdown voltage, then the device will act as a voltage regulator, and the voltage across the terminals of the diode will remain stable until the current passing through it is increased beyond the rated forward current.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the RLZTE-1115A is an ideal single zener diode for use in DC applications such as surge protection and ESD protection. It has a high forward current rating and a relatively low reverse current rating, making it suitable for applications that require both high current passing capability and robust protection from ESD events. The RLZTE-1115A\'s Zener Voltage range of 5.8V to 7.2V is regulated and will remain stable until the forward current passing through it is increased beyond its rated current.
