ZGL41-200A-E3/97

The ZGL41-200A-E3/97 is a single Zener diode, designed to regulate and maintain a constant voltage. It has a wide range of applications where a large reverse voltage is needed, such as in power supplies, voltage regulators, voltage dividers, and overvoltage protection circuits. It is also often used in the reverse protection of sensitive communication or control circuitry.

The ZGL41-200A-E3/97 has two different terminals, the anode and the cathode, with which it can be connected to different circuits. The anode is near the top, with the cathode near the bottom. It is important to note that the reverse voltage may exceed the specified maximum before permanent damage will occur. The reverse voltage is the voltage applied to the diode in the opposing direction of current flow.

The ZGL41-200A-E3/97 uses Zener breakdown, which is a phenomenon that occurs when a diode is connected in the reverse direction and biased with a reverse voltage. This reverse bias will create a depletion region in the junction of the diode which prevents the flow of current and voltage. When the reverse voltage reaches a certain level, the depletion region will become narrow and cause a large current to flow through the diode, which can damage the diode and circuit. The Zener breakdown voltage of the ZGL41-200A-E3/97 is 200V, with a maximum power dissipation of 500mW.

The ZGL41-200A-E3/97 has a variety of application fields. It is most often used in voltage regulation and overvoltage protection circuits. Its ability to maintain a constant voltage, even under changing current and thermal conditions, makes it an ideal choice for regulating the output of power supplies, especially those required to have a high degree of accuracy. It is also used in voltage dividers, where it can be used to apply a reference voltage to the input of various circuits. Other applications include protection for sensitive communication or control circuitry and for protecting electrical or electronic systems from high voltage events, such as lightning strikes.

The ZGL41-200A-E3/97 is easy to integrate and use in a variety of applications. It is often used in conjunction with other components, such as resistors, transistors, and capacitors, to form more complex circuits. It is also important to note that it should be handled and operated with caution due to its ability to generate large amounts of heat and current.

The ZGL41-200A-E3/97 is a high power and precision Zener diode designed for a wide range of applications, from voltage regulation and overvoltage protection to voltage dividers and reverse protection of sensitive circuits. It is important to follow its instructions carefully and to use it with caution. It is capable of withstanding large amounts of voltage and current, and with proper use can improve the performance of various electrical and electronic circuits.
