Diodes are electronic components which allow electricity to flow in one direction only and so act like a one-way valve. This is known as rectification. Zener diodes provide rectification and also a more active function. They act like a valves that allow electricity to flow in either direction. When the voltage across a zener diode is greater than its rated value, the diode breaks down and conduct quite heavily. This property is known as ‘zener breakdown’. The VLZ20A-GS08 is a single Zener diode which is designed specifically for applications that require reliable, low cost, complete protection against overvoltages. It is a high voltage Zener diode that provides reliable, temperature compensated Zener references for use in voltage regulation, overvoltage protection and power management applications.The applications of VLZ20A-GS08 are mainly for switching power supplies, industrial applications and personal computers. It is well-suited for use in dc-dc converters, telecom systems and automotive electronics. This type of Zener diode helps to protect against power surges. It also acts to control the voltage in many electronic devices. The working principle of the VLZ20A-GS08 Zener diode is based on the Zener breakdown or Zener effect. This effect causes a breakdown in the region of the diode that allows a high current to flow through it. It is this current that allows the diode to act as a voltage regulator.When a zener diode encounters a current that exceeds its zener voltage level, the voltage across the diode remains significantly constant, regardless of a further increase in current. This voltage remains roughly identical for as long as the current does not go beyond a given maximum level. As a result, a Zener diode can effectively maintain a constant voltage level, which is higher than its zener voltage, independent of an increase in current.The VLZ20A-GS08 Zener diode provides reliable, temperature compensated Zener references for use in voltage regulation, overvoltage protection and power management applications. It has a wide operating temperature range, with superior temperature stability and low forward voltage drop. It is designed to have optimal performance with a low power dissipation and a very low noise level.In conclusion, the VLZ20A-GS08 is a single Zener diode which provides reliable, low cost, complete protection against overvoltages. It is particularly useful in the areas of switching power supplies, industrial applications and personal computers, which require a reliable and safe voltage regulation. It has a wide operating temperature range, and is designed to have optimal performance with a low power dissipation, very low noise and temperature stability. This helps to ensure reliable and safe voltage regulation for an increased number of applications.
