The VLZ18B-GS08 is a single Zener diode, which finds application in a broad range of applications. The device offers an excellent combination of performance and cost, making it a popular choice for both industrial and consumer applications.

The VLZ18B-GS08 diode is a silicon capped Zener diode with a Zener voltage of 8 volts. It is available in a 7 pin SOT-323 package and provides a desirable combination of break and dynamic resistance. It has a reverse current of 3mA and a total capacitance of 330pF, as well as a working voltage of 8V DC.

The most common applications of the VLZ18B-GS08 include:

• Voltage regulation;
• Power supply stabilization;
• Feedback stabilization;
• Equipment overload protection;
• Flow balancing.

The VLZ18B-GS08 is designed to work as a reverse-biased Zener diode. When a current passes through the device, the voltage across the device increases until it reaches a point where the breakdown voltage is reached. This breakdown voltage is the Zener voltage, in this case 8V. At this point, the diode will begin to “clamp” the voltage at a fixed value regardless of any increase in the current passing through the diode. This makes the VLZ18B-GS08 an ideal choice for applications in which a stable voltage is required.

In addition, the VLZ18B-GS08 can be used as a voltage limiter. This means that the diode will limit the voltage to a certain value, regardless of any changes in the current or in the supply voltage. This makes it an ideal choice for applications where the current or voltage can vary significantly over time, such as in power supplies.

Furthermore, the VLZ18B-GS08 can be used as an overload protection device. When an excessive current passes through the device, the difference between the supply voltage and the breakdown voltage is reached, causing a breakdown. This results in a sudden drop in the current, protecting the circuit from overloads.

Finally, the VLZ18B-GS08 can be used for flow balancing. When two currents must pass through different paths, but with the same voltage level, the device can create a balancing effect. This allows the two currents to flow with the same voltage level, creating a balanced voltage across both paths.

Overall, the VLZ18B-GS08 is a versatile and cost-effective choice for a wide range of applications. It offers excellent performance in terms of stability and protection and is widely used in a variety of applications, such as voltage regulation, power supply stabilization, feedback stabilization, equipment overload protection, and flow balancing.
