This 1N4744A Zener diode is another form of diode which comes in a Through-hole package. Zener diode will mostly be used in a protection circuit or in a crude voltage regulator circuit. Either way, it is very important to remember that a Zener diode should always be used along with a Zener resistor. The 1N4744A 15V Zener Diode has a nominal voltage of 15V and like other types of Zener diodes, it can be used as a reference element in voltage regulation, and it can also be used in switching applications and clipper circuits.
Features
- Silicon Planar Power Zener Diodes
- For use in stabilizing and clipping circuits with a high power rating.
- The standard Zener voltage tolerance is ±10%.
- High reliability
- Very sharp reverse characteristics.
