Product Description
The 8.2V Zener Diode is a high-precision semiconductor component designed for voltage regulation, reference generation, and over-voltage protection. Unlike standard diodes that block reverse current, a Zener diode is engineered to operate reliably in the "Breakdown" region. Once the reverse voltage reaches 8.2V, the diode becomes conductive, maintaining a stable voltage across its terminals despite fluctuations in the input source. Housed in a hermetically sealed DO-35 glass package, these diodes are a staple for creating stable power rails for op-amps, charging circuits, and sensor interfaces that require a specific 8.2V reference.
Key Features
Stable 8.2V Regulation: Provides a consistent voltage baseline, ideal for analog circuits and comparator reference levels.
Sharp Breakdown Characteristic: Offers a clean transition into the conduction state, ensuring minimal voltage drift under varying loads.
Low Leakage Current: High-quality silicon construction ensures that very little current flows below the 8.2V threshold.
Compact DO-35 Form Factor: The axial leaded glass package is easy to integrate into both high-density PCBs and standard prototyping breadboards.
Excellent Thermal Resilience: Capable of operating in extreme temperature environments without significant shifts in the Zener voltage.
