TDZ5V6JF

Introduction

TDZ5V6JF is a surface mount Zener diode, also known as a voltage regulator diode, and is designed to provide a stable voltage reference in environments where heat loss needs to be minimized and accuracy is paramount. It is one of a series of diodes that provides a wide range of stability, clamping and ESD protection for many electronic circuits.

Application Field

TDZ5V6JF is suitable for a variety of applications including wide range power supplies, voltage regulation, or ESD protection. It can be used in most general purpose, reverse voltage and ESD protection circuits. Typical applications include computers, power supplies, telecom systems, test and measurement equipment, and automotive, aircraft, and many other electronics applications.

Working Principle

The working principle of the TDZ5V6JF diode is based on the Junction Barrier Schottky (JBS) effect which states that when a voltage above a diode\'s specified VZ (Zener Voltage) is applied, it develops a reverse breakdown voltage (VBR) dependent on current flow. This breakdown voltage is proportional to the amount of current, and it is described as the Zener voltage characteristic. Therated Zener voltage (VZ) of the TDZ5V6JF is 5.6 V and therefore allows for the regulation ofvoltage in a range of 5 V– 6 V.

The JBS effect is also responsible for the TDZ5V6JF diode\'s low capacitance, which eliminates the need for a separate bypass capacitor in many applications. This allows sufficient current to flow through the diode to ensure the appropriate amount of voltage when operating at its specified breakdown voltage.
