Z4KE180-E3/54 is a type of diode manufactured by ON Semiconductor, belonging to the family of Zener single diodes, part of the larger diodes family. Zener diodes are used in a variety of applications, and Z4KE180-E3/54 are most commonly used in linear regulators and switching regulator power supply applications.

This diode is made with a silicon epitaxial planar construction, with an ultimate rated reverse voltage of 18.0Volts. It has a current rating of 300mA, allowing for stable voltage regulation. As it is a common diode, it has many E3 suffixes associated with it, such as E3 suffix for 180 mA and E3/54 suffix for 300 mA.

The working principle of this type of diode is relatively simple. It has a P-N junction which is detonated when forward biased and at a certain voltage, the voltage barrier is broken, allowing the current flow across the diode. This is turn, causes a negative feedback which results in a regulated voltage across the diode. This diode also contains a protection diode which helps protect sensitive components when the reverse voltage level is exceeded.

The particular Z4KE180-E3/54 can be used in many different applications due to its ability to offer a regulated voltage. Because of its fast switching speed, it has been widely used in DC-DC converters, switching electronic compatible regulators and even in zener diode regulators. It is also often used as a protection diode in power supplies, protecting delicate components from excessive voltage.

The Z4KE180-E3/54 diode can also be used as a clamping diode. This is due to its reverse voltage capability which can be used to stop an excessive current from passing through a component. This prevents terminals from overcharging, further protecting the circuitry from being damaged.

It is typically used in the automotive industry for design of power supplies and EMI filtering. Its fast reverse recovery time makes it suitable for use in situations where an instantaneous response is required. It is also useful in applications where a low voltage gain is needed.

The Z4KE180-E3/54 diode is widely used due to its wide range of application options as well as its ease of use. Its ability to regulate voltage and protect components make it a versatile component which can be employed in a variety of projects. As a result, it is a widely sought after component in both the electronics and automotive markets.
