Working Principle

The working principle of the SML4744-E3/61 Zener diode is quite simple. When a current flows through the diode, a voltage is applied across it. If this voltage exceeds the diode\'s "knee" voltage, the diode breaks down and begins to conduct. As long as the voltage is kept low enough to not exceed this "knee" voltage, the diode will not conduct. This allows the diode to be used as a voltage regulator.

The diode\'s "knee" voltage is determined by the breakdown voltage of the diode. As the current increases, the voltage across the diode increases until it reaches the breakdown voltage. At this point, the diode starts conducting and the voltage will remain relatively constant. This constant voltage is referred to as the "zener" voltage, and it is the voltage at which the diode will remain stable.

The SML4744-E3/61 Zener diode is also capable of operating in reverse voltage, allowing it to be used for reverse bias clamping. Reverse voltage clamps are commonly used in circuits to limit the voltage range to values that are safe for the other components. This can help protect the other components from damage due to overvoltages.

The SML4744-E3/61 Zener diode is a great choice for use in a variety of applications. Its wide range of features and benefits makes it an excellent choice for use in circuit protection, edge detection, clamping, flicker noise reduction, and voltage regulation & stabilisation.
