Frequently asked questions
What is the price of Zener Diode BZX79-C3V6 3.6V 500mW DO-35 in Egypt?
Zener Diode BZX79-C3V6 3.6V 500mW DO-35 currently costs 0.5 EGP in Egypt.
Where can I buy Zener Diode BZX79-C3V6 3.6V 500mW DO-35 in Egypt?
Zener Diode BZX79-C3V6 3.6V 500mW DO-35 is available from Most Electronics. Compare the offers above to find the best price.
How do I use this Zener diode in a circuit?
Connect it in reverse bias across the load and always place a series resistor before it to limit current. For example, from a 5 V supply with about 10 mA through the diode, R = (5 - 3.6) / 0.01 = 140 ohm.
What is the maximum current this diode can handle?
From its 500 mW rating at 3.6 V, the maximum continuous Zener current is about 139 mA (P / V). Keep the actual current well below this value, with suitable margin, to avoid overheating.
