DATA SHEET AND USECASE

Common Applications:

• Voltage Regulation: They are used to maintain a constant output voltage despite variations in the input voltage or load conditions. By connecting the Zener diode in parallel with the load, it ensures that the voltage across the load remains stable at 3.6V. ​
• Overvoltage Protection: Zener diodes can protect sensitive electronic components by clamping voltage spikes. When the voltage exceeds 3.6V, the Zener diode conducts in reverse, diverting the excess voltage and preventing potential damage. ​
• Waveform Clipping: In signal processing, Zener diodes can clip voltage waveforms to shape signals, ensuring they do not exceed a specific voltage level, which is useful in protecting subsequent stages of a circuit.
