The TZM5236B-GS18 diode is a Zener diode classified under Diodes - Zener - Single diode family. It is a two terminal bidirectional device that exhibits a negative resistance when it is connected in a reverse biased direction. The TZM5236B-GS18 is a low power, small form factor diode that provides voltage regulation in low-power electronic circuits. It is commonly used in consumer electronics and power distribution applications such as portable electronic devices, switching power supplies and automotive electronic systems.

Principle of Operation: The TZM5236B-GS18 diode is a p–n junction diode which operates by using a unique negative resistance property. When it is connected to a circuit in reverse bias, the diode exhibits a negative resistance which prevents current from flowing. This reduces the voltage drop on the diode and is used to regulate voltage by controlling the flow of current.

When the forward bias voltage applied to the diode is less than the breakdown voltage, the current through the diode is limited by the current source and the voltage across the diode remains constant (i.e., the voltage regulation). When the forward bias voltage reaches the Zener breakdown voltage, the current through the diode increases exponentially, which results in a voltage drop that is linear with the current. This protects the circuit from power related faults.

Applications: The TZM5236B-GS18 diode is a ubiquitous component in many low power, consumer and industrial applications. Its small foot print and low power consumption make it suitable for use in portable electronic devices such as mobile phones, tablets, and laptop computers, as well as automotive, medical, and household applications.

In consumer electronics, the TZM5236B-GS18 diode can be used to regulate voltage in the power supply circuits of laptop computers and tablet PCs. It can also be used in the battery charging circuits of portable electronic devices to prevent overcharging.
