Single diodes are basically pieces of semiconductor material which have been modified to only allow current to flow in one direction. Zener diodes are a special type of single diode that allow current to flow in either direction when a sufficiently high voltage is applied. The TZMC62-M-18 is a special type of Zener diode designed for use in applications where it is important to have more control over the flow of current than a regular diode can provide.

The TZM62-M-18 is a Surface Mount Device capable of handling up to 18 volts of reverse voltage. It has a maximum peak reverse voltage (PRV) of 18V, a maximum peak repetitive reverse voltage (PRV) of 15V, and a maximum forward voltage (VF) of 0.45V. The device is constructed using a P-type substrate and N-type epi layer. This particular Zener diode is also able to handle very low reverse current leakage of up to 10μA.

The applications of the TZMC62-M-18 are diverse and varied. It is primarily used as an over-voltage protection device for sensitive electronic equipment, such as computers and televisions. It is also often used in automotive applications, such as voltage regulators and voltage-dependent relays. Since the device is able to handle low reverse current leakage, it is also suitable for use in medical equipment, such as pacemakers.

The working principle of the TZMC62-M-18 is relatively simple. When the forward voltage of the device is greater than that of the Zener voltage, current begins to flow. This current is then divided into two parts, one part flowing through the diode itself and the other part flowing to the load. As the forward voltage increases, more current is diverted to the load and less is diverted to the diode. When the forward voltage exceeds the Zener voltage, the device behaves like a regular diode and only allows current to flow in the forward direction.

When the reverse voltage applied to the TZMC62-M-18 exceeds the reverse voltage rating, the device begins to behave in a very different manner than a regular diode. Instead of completely blocking current flow in the reverse direction, the device actively regulates the current to a specific level. This effect is known as Zener breakdown and it is what makes the TZMC62-M-18 so useful for over-voltage applications.

The TZMC62-M-18 is a very versatile device and is suitable for a number of applications. Its ability to regulate current in the reverse direction makes it an ideal choice for over-voltage protection and it can also be used in automotive applications. It is a robust, reliable device that is sure to be a great addition to any electronic system.
