The 6.8V 0.5 Watt Zener Diode is a reliable and compact voltage regulation component designed to provide a stable 6.8V output when connected in reverse bias. With a power dissipation rating of 0.5 watts, it is ideal for low-power applications where voltage regulation or over-voltage protection is required. This Zener diode is commonly used in power supplies, voltage clamping circuits, and signal protection, offering efficient voltage regulation for sensitive components in your electronic projects.
In reverse bias, the 6.8V Zener Diode begins conducting once the reverse voltage exceeds 6.8V, clamping the voltage across it at a stable 6.8V. This allows it to protect sensitive components by preventing excessive voltage. With a 0.5-watt power rating, it is designed for moderate current handling and provides a cost-effective solution for low-power circuits that need reliable voltage regulation.
Typical Use Cases:
Voltage regulation in low-power DC circuits
Over-voltage protection for microcontrollers and other sensitive electronics
Signal clipping or limiting in analog or audio circuits
Power supply circuits for small devices and sensors
Surge protection in battery-powered systems
0.5 Watt maximum power dissipation â exceeding this can lead to overheating and potential failure.
Not suitable for high-current or heavy-duty applications.
Voltage tolerance is typically within Âą5%, which can lead to slight variations in voltage regulation.
Requires proper heat management to avoid damage when used near its power dissipation limit.
