Diodes are semiconductor devices that allow current to flow in one direction but block flow in the opposite direction. Zener diodes are designed to do the opposite, allowing some current to flow in the reverse direction when a certain voltage is reached. This reverse flow is also known as “zener breakdown”. The TLZ2V4B-GS18 is a single Zener diode developed by Semiconductor Technologies. It has an array of application fields and an interesting working principle.

Application Fields

The TLZ2V4B-GS18 is used for a range of applications which involve voltage regulation, voltage stabilization, and low-voltage protection. One common usage of the diode is for secure power supply for LED displays. It can provide a constant voltage and current output so that LED displays can be used without worry of power spikes or loss due to fluctuations in the input supply. It can also be used in circuitry to monitor and regulate the amount of current going into various low-voltage components.

The TLZ2V4B-GS18 is also used in circuitry to provide voltage spike protection, particularly for sensitive electronic components. When a spike in voltage occurs, the diode will allow a portion of the surge to be diverted away from the component, thus preventing damage. This is especially useful for more complex electronic systems that can be easily damaged by accidental power fluctuations.

Working Principle

The TLZ2V4B-GS18 is a diode with a special property which allows reverse current flow when a certain threshold voltage value is reached. This effect is known as a “zener breakdown”. The breakdown voltage of a TLZ2V4B-GS18 is 4.8V, meaning that it allows reverse current to flow when the applied voltage is higher than 4.8V.

When there is no voltage applied to the diode, it looks like an open circuit, meaning no current can flow through it. When the applied voltage is below the breakdown voltage, a small amount of current will flow through the diode. This is known as the “zener” current and is used to regulate the voltage applied to the diode. As the applied voltage increases, so does the amount of current flowing through the diode, until the breakdown voltage is reached. When this happens, the current flow through the diode suddenly increases exponentially, allowing reverse current flow, thus providing voltage stabilization.

The TLZ2V4B-GS18 is designed to provide stable and efficient voltage regulation and protection. Its wide array of application fields makes it a versatile and reliable tool in any circuit.
