TLZ24B-GS08

Introduction

The TLZ24B-GS08 is a single Zener diode that is used for many different applications. This diode has a breakdown voltage of 8.2V, a maximum power dissipation of 500mW and a maximum reverse leakage current at 8.2V of 4 µA. The TLZ24B-GS08 is often used in applications where voltage regulation is required such as DC/DC converters, voltage regulation circuits and precision power supplies.

Application Field

The TLZ24B-GS08 is often used in power circuits that require voltage regulation. This diode can be connected in a simple voltage-dropping circuit to provide a fixed voltage. This can be especially useful in low power designs where other components may be unable to provide a stable voltage.

In DC/DC converters, the TLZ24B-GS08 can be used to bring the output voltage of the converter down to the desired value. It is also used as a voltage reference in power supplies for measuring and adjusting the output voltage.

As a voltage suppressor, the TLZ24B-GS08 can be used to protect circuits from transients such as induced by inductive loads. It can also be used as an input suppression diode in transistor circuits to protect against excessive reverse currents.

The TLZ24B-GS08 can also be used in circuits that require Circuit protection. For example, it can be used in series with an external fuse to provide additional protection to the circuit from over-voltage events.

Working Principle

The TLZ24B-GS08 is a single Zener diode. This type of diode consists of two junctions, an anode and a cathode, both of which are heavily doped. When the voltage across the diode reaches a certain level, usually referred to as the Zener voltage, the electric field created between the two junctions will exceed the breakdown value of the junction. This will cause the diode to conduct electric current in the reverse direction, allowing the electric current to drop across the diode.

The breakdown voltage of the TLZ24B-GS08 is 8.2V. This is the voltage at which the diode begins to conduct current in the reverse direction. The maximum power dissipation of the TLZ24B-GS08 is 500 mW and the maximum current it can handle is 4 µA.

The TLZ24B-GS08 is also made of a dielectric material, which helps to minimize capacitance. This reduces the amount of voltage drop across the device during switching operations and helps reduce electromagnetic interference.

Conclusion

The TLZ24B-GS08 is an versatile single Zener diode that is used for many different applications. It is often used in power circuits that require voltage regulation or output protection. Its breakdown voltage of 8.2V, combined with its low capacitance, make it perfect for DC/DC converters, voltage regulation circuits, power supplies, circuit protection and other applications.
