Diodes, also known as rectifiers, are electrical components which block one direction of electrical current but allow the opposite direction to pass through. Zener diodes are a special type of diode that are designed to provide a surprise voltage regulation. The Z4KE160A-E3/54 is a single Zener diode which exhibits a wide range of applications and working principles.

Application Field

The Z4KE160A-E3/54 is specially designed and particularly suited for clamping and voltage attenuator circuits, as well as any other circuit where a reliable voltage regulation is required. The low reverse-leakage current characteristic of this single Zener diode makes it particularly suitable to high-sensitivity/low-noise applications. The gated resistor is also useful for audio cross-over applications.

Apart from clamping and voltage attenuator circuits, the Z4KE160A-E3/54 can be used for power line protection, overvoltage protection, low-dropout linear regulators and switching regulators, as well as thermistor bias circuits.

Working Principle

The Z4KE160A-E3/54 characteristics vary according to the applied reverse voltage, allowing for the right voltage regulation to be applied in each circuit. If a voltage higher than the Zener voltage is applied, this Zener diode will conduct a reverse current limited by the breakdown voltage, and will provide a regulated output within a certain range.

Provided with a gated resistor, it enables precise current regulation, allowing users to select the required voltage regulation according to the applied reverse voltage. This feature results in precise current regulation and low ripple understeady state conditions.

Conclusion

The Z4KE160A-E3/54 single Zener diode provides a wide range of applications and working principles, ranging from audio cross-over applications to low-dropout linear regulators and switching regulators, allowing for precise current regulation and voltage regulation in different applications.
