With the upgrading of consumer electronics functions and the continuous increase in usage in the new energy vehicle manufacturing industry in recent years, the demand for upstream passive electronic components such as surface mount diodes has gradually increased. Especially after strong support for the development of new energy vehicles, the market's demand for surface mount diodes and voltage regulator electronic components has become even greater.
SMD diode, voltage regulator diode - electronic components
Zener diode is a surface junction silicon semiconductor diode manufactured using special processes, and its appearance and internal structure are similar to ordinary diodes. To understand the working principle of a voltage regulator diode, one only needs to understand its reverse characteristics. By utilizing the reverse breakdown state of a pn junction, the current can vary widely while the voltage remains basically unchanged, resulting in a diode that functions as a voltage regulator. Therefore, it is called a voltage regulator diode (referred to as a voltage regulator).
Zener diodes are classified based on their breakdown voltage, and their voltage regulation value is the breakdown voltage value. Zener diodes are mainly used as voltage regulators or voltage reference components, and can be connected in series to obtain higher voltage regulation values. The selected voltage regulator diode should meet the requirements of the main parameters in the circuit. The stable voltage value of the voltage regulator diode should be the same as the reference voltage value of the application circuit, and the larger stable current of the voltage regulator diode should be about 50% higher than the larger load current of the application circuit.
The market's demand for passive electronic components and zener diodes has gradually increased significantly. Automotive electronics, Internet application products, mobile communications, smart homes, 5G, consumer electronics and other fields have become a constant driving force for the development of China's electronic component market, driving the market demand for electronic components, which has been madly purchased by a large number of upstream and downstream manufacturing enterprises in the fields of high-precision double-sided, multi-layer rigid circuit board PCB, flexible circuit board FPC and soft hard combination circuit board.
