Working Principle

The SMZJ3800AHE3/52 diode is a kind of Zener-type diode. It works in a very simple manner. When the diode is not in use, it acts as a regular diode, allowing the correct current to flow in only one direction -- from anode to cathode. When the voltage reaches the Zener voltage, this voltage barrier is surpassed and the diode conducts in the reverse direction. This creates a current path from cathode to anode, as established by the Zener voltage. This provides a form of electrical protection, because if an overvoltage is applied to a circuit connected on the anode side of the diode, the current will flow through the diode and not the circuit, thus protecting it. This working principle helps to ensure that the SMZJ3800AHE3/52 diode offers the highest degree of protection in AC and DC circuits.
