Diodes - Zener - Single

The VLZ3V9-GS08 is one of the single Zener diodes made by Semtech. It is a small, low power consumption component which provides a very reliable and accurate voltage reference for various applications.

The VLZ3V9-GS08 is a three-terminal diode which consists of a PN junction with an extra section in a glass package. This extra section is known as the Zener depletion layer. It is created by adding an impurity zone to the PN junction. This zone is biased in the reverse direction and causes a depletion layer to be created. It has a reverse breakdown voltage of around 3V and is able to dissipate up to 100mW of power.

The main application of this diode is as a voltage reference. This type of diode is used to provide voltage regulation in circuits which require a precise reference voltage. For example, it is used in voltage regulators, high voltage regulators, current shunt monitors, overvoltage protection circuits, etc. It is also used as a voltage limiter in transistor and thyristor circuits to protect devices.

The working principle of the VLZ3V9-GS08 diode is relatively simple. When the diode is connected in a circuit, it creates a path for current to flow. The current which flows through the diode creates a voltage drop across the diode and this voltage drop is known as the Zener voltage. This Zener voltage is the reference voltage for the circuit and it can be used to regulate other voltages in the circuit.

The VLZ3V9-GS08 single Zener diode is an ideal component for providing a precise and reliable voltage reference for a number of different applications. It is efficient, does not need to be powered, and is easy to use. Its precise and stable operating voltage makes it suitable for a variety of systems and components.
