Diodes are an important component in circuits, and the Zener diode is needed to create a stable voltage reference. A key component of the Zener circuit is the TZS4682-GS08. This single Zener diode is designed for different applications, and it offers dependable regulation of the circuit’s output.

What is a Zener Diode?

A Zener diode is a type of diode that produces a regulated voltage. It is typically used in electronic circuits to provide a steady and constant voltage to the circuit. It is also used to reduce the intensity of power surges that could potentially damage sensitive components. This type of diode allows for current to flow in the one direction but it conducts electricity in the opposite direction when the voltage has exceeded a certain limit (called the "Zener voltage").

The TZS4682-GS08

The TZS4682-GS08 is a single Zener diode designed to operate on an operating temperature range of -65°C to +175°C. It has a power rating of 500mW and a low reverse leakage current of 4μA (at 6V). This makes it ideal for regulating voltage in low current applications. The Zener voltage of the diode is 6V (6.2V max).

Applications and Working Principle of the TZS4682-GS08

This Zener diode can be used in many application fields, thanks to its compatibility with a wide range of voltages. It can be used in circuits where precise voltage regulation or current limiting is required, such as precision voltage references, voltage regulators, and current sources.

The working principle of a Zener diode is similar to any other diode, but the difference is that, a Zener diode is specially designed to be able to operate at higher voltages than other diodes. The Zener diode will only conduct electricity when the voltage is greater than the Zener voltage. This flow of current is called “reverse breakdown” since it is through the junction in reverse. When this reverse breakdown occurs, the Zener diode will evenly distribute the current across both sides of the junction.

The TZS4682-GS08 features an optimized construction and symmetrical termination configuration to minimize inductance, reduce capacitance, and improve frequency response and dynamic stability.

Conclusion

The TZS4682-GS08 is a single Zener diode designed for applications where precise voltage regulation or current limiting is required. It has a low reverse leakage current, and its optimized construction reduces inductance, capacitance, and improves frequency response and dynamic stability. The Zener voltage of the diode is 6V (6.2V max). The TZS4682-GS08 is an ideal choice for regulating voltage in low current applications.
