TLZ5V6B-GS08

The TLZ5V6B-GS08 is a single zener diode that is primarily used to regulate voltage. It is designed to conduct electricity in either direction when a reverse voltage is applied and when the threshold voltage rate is surpassed. The TLZ5V6B-GS08 voltage regulation is particularly useful in electronic circuits where a stable voltage is needed for correct operation.

Applications

The TLZ5V6B-GS08 is most often used to protect circuits from overvoltage and to prevent any damage caused by this overvoltage. It is useful in high voltage power supplies, voltage regulator circuits, high voltage protection circuits, data interface circuits, regulation circuits, and power transmission and distribution. It is also well suited for the high surge current applications.

The TLZ5V6B-GS08 is also used in low voltage preference control components, such as toys, wireless remote control systems and LED lighting components. It is also very useful in optoelectronic applications such as LED display modules, infrared remote control receivers and detectors.

Working Principle

The TLZ5V6B-GS08 works on the principle of the zener breakdown. At normal temperature the electric current passes through the diode when a forward voltage is applied. If a reverse voltage is increased then the electric current begins to increase until it reaches a sudden increase. This sudden increase is called the zener breakdown and the voltage at which it occurs is the breakdown voltage or zener voltage.

When the reverse voltage applied to the diode is equal to or greater than the breakdown voltage then the diode will conduct electricity in both directions. This allows the voltage to be regulated over a range of voltages. The TLZ5V6B-GS08 can regulate voltages up to 6.4V.

The TLZ5V6B-GS08 will also regulate the voltage when it is below the breakdown voltage. When the voltage is below the breakdown voltage the TLZ5V6B-GS08 will limit the electric current. The maximum current is usually limited to 1mA.
