PLVA668A

Low-voltage avalanche regulator diodes

High performance voltage regulator diodes in a small SOT23 (TO-236AB), Surface-Mounted Device (SMD) plastic package.

Features and benefits

  • Very low dynamic impedance at low currents: approximately 5 % of conventional series

  • Hard breakdown knee

  • Low noise: approximately 10 % of conventional series

  • Total power dissipation: max. 250 mW

  • Small tolerances of VZ

  • Working voltage range: nominal 5.00 to 6.80 V

  • Non-repetitive peak reverse power dissipation: maximal 30 W at 150 °C

Applications

  • Low current, low power, low noise applications

  • CMOS RAM back-up circuits

  • Voltage stabilizers

  • Voltage limiters

  • Smoke detector relays

Sample

As a Nexperia customer you can order samples via our sales organization.

If you do not have a direct account with Nexperia our network of global and regional distributors is available and equipped to support you with Nexperia samples. Check out the list of official distributors.

How does it work?

The interactive datasheets are based on the Nexperia MOSFET precision electrothermal models. With our interactive datasheets you can simply specify your own conditions interactively. Start by changing the values of the conditions. You can do this by using the sliders in the condition fields. By dragging the sliders you will see how the MOSFET will perform at the new conditions set.
