UDZSTE-1718B Discrete Semiconductor Products

The UDZSTE-1718B is a single Zener diode, and it is a widely used device in electrical circuitry. A diode is a device which allows current to flow in one direction but blocks it in the other. It is created by forming two parallel p-n junctions. A Zener diode is a special kind of diode, which has been modified by adding a layer of an impurity between the terminals of the diode.

An UDZSTE-1718B is an ideal choice for applications requiring a stable and reliable voltage. Its main function is to regulate a source of voltage and protect against overvoltage and undervoltage. The UDZSTE-1718B can be used in power supplies, circuit protection, signal conditioning, and many other applications. It is also used in pulse power applications and EMI filtering.

The working principle of the UDZSTE-1718B is fairly simple. When the voltage across the device is lower than the Zener breakdown voltage, it behaves like a regular diode, allowing current to flow in only one direction. However, when the voltage rises beyond the Zener breakdown voltage, the diode begins to allow current to flow in both directions. This is the Zener effect.

The voltage regulation of the UDZSTE-1718B is highly-accurate and stable, making it suitable for precision applications. The device is also protected against over-current and transient voltages, making it well-suited for use in data communications and electronic circuits which require reliable and robust voltage regulation. As such, it is suitable for countless applications, including audio equipment, radio receivers, computer systems, and medical electronics.

In summary, the UDZSTE-1718B is a single Zener diode which can be applied in a wide variety of applications, including audio equipment, radio receivers, power supplies, computer systems, and medical electronics. Its working principle is based on the Zener effect, allowing it to provide accurate and stable voltage regulation. It is also protected from over-current and transient voltages, making it a reliable and robust device.
